Token Economy: Unlocking Behavior, a Practical Guide to Token Economies
About this ebook
The system of contingency management known as a token economy is built on the systematic reinforcement of behavior that is intended to be accomplished. The reinforcers are tokens or symbols that can be traded in for other reinforcers so that others can be obtained. The ideas of operant conditioning and behavioral economics serve as the foundation for a token economy, which can be positioned within the framework of applied behavior analysis. Token economies are utilized with both children and adults in practical settings; however, in laboratory settings, they have been successfully replicated with pigeons.
