1INTRODUCTION
[blank_start]Conditioning[blank_end] is a highly [blank_start]contentious[blank_end] area because it involves [blank_start]manipulating[blank_end] someones behaviour, possibly without their [blank_start]knowledge[blank_end]. People who are for it believe that it has many [blank_start]benefits[blank_end] for children, [blank_start]parents[blank_end] and teachers, but people [blank_start]opposed[blank_end] think we're raising a [blank_start]generation[blank_end] of selfish '[blank_start]robots[blank_end]'.- Acontentious

2AT HOME - FOR
- It benefits both children and [blank_start]parents[blank_end] when positive [blank_start]reinforcements[blank_end] are used, for example Supernanny used the [blank_start]naughty[blank_end] [blank_start]step[blank_end].
- Makes for a more pleasant and [blank_start]respectful[blank_end] household.
- [blank_start]Gill[blank_end] ([blank_start]1998[blank_end]) found giving kids [blank_start]money[blank_end] for completing household [blank_start]chores[blank_end] (or [blank_start]taking[blank_end] away pocket money) was [blank_start]successful[blank_end], as the kids performed [blank_start]20[blank_end]% of the overall household chores.
- It encourages [blank_start]appropriate[blank_end] behaviour and teaches children to [blank_start]behave[blank_end] in other areas.- Aparents

3IN SCHOOL - FOR
- [blank_start]Operant[blank_end] conditioning is widely used in [blank_start]schools[blank_end], for example [blank_start]rewards[blank_end] systems like [blank_start]merits[blank_end] and house points.
- [blank_start]Levitt[blank_end] ([blank_start]2010[blank_end]) found that on a programme in the US offering [blank_start]financial[blank_end] incentives improved academic [blank_start]performance[blank_end].
- [blank_start]LeFrancois[blank_end] ([blank_start]2008[blank_end]) suggested that [blank_start]classical[blank_end] conditioning can be used too. Teachers should maximise [blank_start]pleasure[blank_end] stimuli in classrooms (laughter, [blank_start]displays[blank_end]) and reduce [blank_start]unpleasant[blank_end] stimuli (shouting). Students will [blank_start]associate[blank_end] school with feeling [blank_start]positive[blank_end].- AOperant

4PEERS - FOR
- Children in schools are [blank_start]influenced[blank_end] by their [blank_start]peers[blank_end]
- To fit in and be [blank_start]accepted[blank_end] children [blank_start]imitate[blank_end] their peers = they are [blank_start]conditioned[blank_end] by each other- Apeers
- Binfluenced
- Caccepted
- Dimitate
- Econditioned
5VULNERABLE GROUPS OF CHILDREN - FOR
- Used with [blank_start]psychological[blank_end] and medical conditions
- [blank_start]Lovaas[blank_end] ([blank_start]1987[blank_end]) developed the Applied Behaviour [blank_start]Analysis[blank_end] (ABA) to increase frequency and [blank_start]quality[blank_end] of interactions for kids with [blank_start]autism[blank_end].
- One on [blank_start]one[blank_end] therapy shapes their behaviour. Initially they are [blank_start]rewarded[blank_end] for everything, but that [blank_start]gradually[blank_end] gets reduced so they only get rewarded for being [blank_start]close[blank_end] to their target.
- [blank_start]Chaney[blank_end] et al ([blank_start]2004[blank_end]) created the '[blank_start]Funhaler[blank_end]' and gave it to children with asthma.
- After [blank_start]2[blank_end] weeks the kids had had fewer problems [blank_start]medicating[blank_end] and had a better [blank_start]response[blank_end] to treatment.- Apsychological

6AT HOME - AGAINST
- [blank_start]Naughty[blank_end] step can cause long-term [blank_start]negative[blank_end] effects according to [blank_start]Morris[blank_end] (2014)
- Because kids can't [blank_start]verbalise[blank_end] their feelings and [blank_start]reflect[blank_end] on behaviour, so they won't get [blank_start]empathy[blank_end] or help with their [blank_start]feelings[blank_end]
- If parents are [blank_start]inconsistent[blank_end] it can send [blank_start]mixed[blank_end] messages to the child
- Children can come to expect [blank_start]rewards[blank_end] in other contexts of their [blank_start]lives[blank_end] and it will be [blank_start]disappointing[blank_end] for them if they don't [blank_start]receive[blank_end] any.- ANaughty

7IN SCHOOL - AGAINST
- [blank_start]Rewards[blank_end] don't always lead to [blank_start]better[blank_end] performance
- [blank_start]Dweck[blank_end] ([blank_start]1975[blank_end]) found that kids [blank_start]praised[blank_end] for doing well in a [blank_start]maths[blank_end] test did worse at a [blank_start]later[blank_end] date in [blank_start]comparison[blank_end] to those who were told they'd been [blank_start]lazy[blank_end]. The second group had learned to [blank_start]persist[blank_end] whereas the [blank_start]first[blank_end] group gave up early.
- Can diminish an [blank_start]internal[blank_end] drive to [blank_start]learn[blank_end] because children become more [blank_start]focused[blank_end] on what they will achieve.
- [blank_start]Lewis[blank_end] (1995) found that [blank_start]Japanese[blank_end] schools rarely use reward systems but children are more [blank_start]motivated[blank_end] to learn.- Abetter

8PEERS - AGAINST
- Some peers may not be good [blank_start]influences[blank_end]
- [blank_start]Bricker[blank_end] et al ([blank_start]2006[blank_end]) found that kids [blank_start]10[blank_end] years old were more likely to try [blank_start]smoking[blank_end] if their friends did it- Ainfluences

9VULNERABLE GROUPS OF CHILDREN - AGAINST
- [blank_start]Critics[blank_end] of Lovaas' method argue that the research had many [blank_start]methodological[blank_end] issues such as not [blank_start]randomly[blank_end] allocating kids to the control and [blank_start]experimental[blank_end] groups.
- Also [blank_start]Lovaas[blank_end] suggested that kids need [blank_start]40hrs[blank_end] a week, but [blank_start]Anderson[blank_end] et al (1987) found that [blank_start]20hrs[blank_end] a week was enough.
- Conditioning only treats the [blank_start]symptoms[blank_end] and the symptoms could [blank_start]re-emerge[blank_end] once the reinforcement has been [blank_start]removed[blank_end].- ACritics

10CONCLUSION
- Becoming [blank_start]socialised[blank_end] will inevitably involve [blank_start]conditioning[blank_end] as it's one of the [blank_start]basic[blank_end] routes to teaching right and [blank_start]wrong[blank_end].
- Children need to be able to [blank_start]function[blank_end] in society
- But it might not be the most [blank_start]effective[blank_end] way, for example children can't start expecting [blank_start]reward[blank_end] systems all the time
- Ethically [blank_start]moulding[blank_end] people is wrong especially for the [blank_start]vulnerable[blank_end], although it could be [blank_start]necessary[blank_end].- Asocialised

11ETHICAL, SOCIAL AND ECONOMICAL IMPLICATIONS
- Can benefit [blank_start]society[blank_end] because [blank_start]vulnerable[blank_end] kids could benefit if we help them make their behaviour more '[blank_start]normal[blank_end]'. It could help them [blank_start]fit[blank_end] in better and work towards getting [blank_start]rewarding[blank_end] jobs.
- However people could become [blank_start]obsessed[blank_end] with getting rewards and become [blank_start]selfish[blank_end]
- Could argue that it's [blank_start]unethical[blank_end] to [blank_start]reward[blank_end] students for their performance when the money could be [blank_start]better[blank_end] spent elsewhere. (Use example of [blank_start]Levitt[blank_end])
- It is open to [blank_start]abuse[blank_end] if people condition for the [blank_start]wrong[blank_end] reasons
- [blank_start]Greezy[blank_end] et al ([blank_start]2011[blank_end]) found that [blank_start]incentive[blank_end] programmes don't always offer the best return on an [blank_start]investment[blank_end].
