How+to+train+your+friends,+pets,+etc...

So now that you have created a manual for training an imaginary animal, lets turn the focus on a person or pet in your real life. This is worth 50pts and due Monday after vacation.

Note: no violence, capitol, or corporal punishment will be acceptable in this assignment.

Step 1: Who is your subject (cannot be in a psych class or told that they are part of your homework). Step 2: What actions do you want to achieve? (what is the unconditioned response?) Step 3: What are your options for how to get there? (Classical and Operant conditioning each contain many parts, usually a few are used together) Step 4: How will you put an option into place and how long will it take? (repetition is key!) Step 5: How will you know if you have "trained" this individual? (how will you asses learning?)

Please write up your experiment in detail, step by step. Step 1= 5pts Step 2= 5pts Step 3= 10pts Step 4= 20pts Step 5= 10pts Extra credit available for taking pictures or video.
