6.5 Don’t Provide Too Much Reinforcement
When providing reinforcement, you should make one praise statement and provide one small edible or brief access (30 sec.) to one preferred item. If you provide too much reinforcement or provide reinforcement for too long, it may be hard to get the learner to focus on the next instruction or to stay motivated to continue working.
