Greg is being reinforced using a token system. When
he follows directions, he earns a point. When he
misbehaves or does not follow a request, he loses
points. At the end of each day, he can “buy” free
time, TV privileges, etc. with his points. Greg used to
call his mom names. Since he has been on the point
system, his name calling has been reduced to almost
zero.
