Of the following, the statement that best illustrates the Premack principle is:

Question 2

Jason is a chronic talker in Mr. Ayala's class. Mr. Ayala gave him a referral to the office near the end of the class on Monday, and he gave him another yesterday (Wednesday) about halfway through the class. Jason begins talking at the beginning of the period today, and Mr. Ayala immediately gives him a referral and Jason leaves for the office. The best explanation for Mr. Ayala's behavior (giving referrals) is:
 
  a. he is being negatively reinforced for giving referrals, since Jason is removed from the class.
  b. he is being punished, because Jason is no longer learning.
  c. he has developed giving referrals as a conditioned response.
  d. he is giving referrals because Jason's behavior is now extinct.
