1. How would you apply extinction to a behavior maintained by socially-mediated negative reinforcement? Provide behavior, definition, and conditions under which it occurs in your response. 2. Describe what the difference between an extinction burst and spontaneous recovery is. 3. How does extinction lead to an increase in response variability, and what implications does this have for shaping new behaviors? Provide an example of how extinction-induced variability could be strategically used in a treatment plan. 4. How can extinction be combined with differential reinforcement to effectively reduce unwanted behaviors while promoting desirable ones? Provide an example. 5. What factors contribute to the resistance to extinction, and how can these be addressed in a behavior intervention plan? Consider the role of intermittent reinforcement, the strength of the behavior, and the context in which the behavior occurs. 6. Discuss the ethical concerns associated with traditional extinction procedures, particularly in the context of escape-maintained behavior. How do these concerns influence the implementation of such procedures? 7. What is "kind extinction," and how does it modify traditional extinction procedures to address issues of compassion and social validity in ABA? Provide examples from the study to illustrate your points. 8. Describe the
