Considerações e alternativas para a substituição do uso do controle aversivo no processo de condicionamento comportamental infantil

Abstract

The present work aimed to identify the interaction of respondents and operants resulting from the use of aversive control. From there, we sought to hold a discussion about the effects of the identified interviewees, providing alternative alternatives for the use of this control in children's behavioral conditioning. To this end, a bibliographical survey was carried out based on the analysis of scientific articles, dissertations and reviews of national and international literature, through publications relating to the last ten years on the topic, with an approach to classic authors of behavior analysis, such as Skinner and Sidman. From this, the work consists of bringing aspects about the basic principles in behavior analysis, the use of tolerance as a form of behavioral change and the discussion about alternatives to replace the use of aversive control (modeling, extension and reinforcement difference from other answers). Finally, some important considerations were presented, highlighting the disapproval of behavior analysis regarding the use of aversive control and the favor of the use of other alternatives to replace it.
