Interpersonal Effectiveness for BPD, Pt. 6: Why Punishment Doesn't Actually Work 1g2e2q

Content Warning: Discussion of Self H*rm Behaviorism is a scientific approach in psychology that focuses on the study of observable behaviors rather than people’s internal mental processes. The reason it's good to consider Behaviorism when learning about Interpersonal Effectiveness, is because it's helpful for us to understand how to reinforce the behaviour we want to see in ourselves and in others, and to make sure we're conscious of the ways we might be reinforcing unwanted behaviours without realizing. In this episode, I’ll go over my reflections on the FINAL WEEK of the course, including: What is Classical and Operant Conditioning? What is Positive and Negative Reinforcement? Why do we need to reinforce behavior when people should just know it's the right thing to do? What is the difference between Continuous and Intermittent Reinforcement? Are we reinforcing other people's behaviour without even realizing it? What is the difference between Positive and Negative Punishment? Why isn't punishment effective in eliminating behaviours in the long term?
