A procedure has been put in place for Albert. If he swears in class his teacher says, “Swearing is not allowed in this classroom,” and escorts Albert to a time-out room. He stays there for five minutes. His teacher has used the procedure for three weeks and his swearing has not decreased at all, but she continues to call it punishment despite the data. What is the problem in this example?
