1. Behavioral contingency—define it and give an example. 

2. Use some version of the verbal expression to be contingent in a way that shows you understand how to use the term correctly. For example, Attention is contingent on Rod’s crying. 

3. And also use some version of the verbal expression noncontingent (or not contingent). For example, the rain is not contingent on you going for a picnic, even though it may seem like the rain gods are just messing with you.
