Imagine you are the head manager at a clothing store.  Javier is one of several cashiers that you have on staff.  One of his tasks every night when closing the clothing store is to check the front displays, and re-fold the clothes if they were moved by customers.  Javier sometimes checks and refolds them, but sometimes he forgets.  When he forgets, you’ve noticed that he is distracted by talking to his coworkers.  As the head manager, it is your job to respond to Javier’s behavior.  You decide to use operant conditioning techniques to modify his behavior.  Match each consequence to its correct label.
