d. DRA
- Differential Reinforcement of Alternative behavior (DRA) is a behavior modification technique that is most likely to increase alternative behavior. This technique specifically reinforces a behavior that is an acceptable alternative to an unwanted behavior.
- The goal is to reduce the occurrence of the unwanted behavior by reinforcing a more appropriate or desirable behavior. When using DRA, the individual receives positive reinforcement (such as a reward or praise) for exhibiting the alternative behavior, but not for the unwanted behavior. This makes the alternative behavior more likely to occur in the future.
