description | Abstract
The principles of operant conditioning are often applied in canine training. Their correct application requires a good timing, well-defined criteria and a proper rate of reinforcement. Few studies have compared the types of markers of canine training events; the most used are the
clicker and the voice. Objective: to compare the number of reinforcers required to shape seven new behaviors in two canine subjects, contrasting the use of the clicker and the voice as markers of events. Results: there is evidence of equivalence in the number of reinforcers needed to achieve the behavior to shape with the use of the clicker and the use of the voice. Conclusions: at least in this study, the timing and the shaping are not affected by the type of marker of events used.
Resumen
Los principios del condicionamiento operante son frecuentemente aplicados en entrenamiento canino.
Para su correcta aplicación se requiere un buen timing, criterios bien definidos y una correcta tasa de
reforzamiento. Pocos estudios han comparado los tipos de marcadores de eventos en entrenamiento canino, los más usados son el clicker y la voz. Objetivo: comparar el número de reforzadores requeridos al moldear siete conductas nuevas en dos sujetos caninos, comparando el uso del clicker y de la voz como marcadores de eventos. Resultados: indicaron equivalencia en el número de reforzadores necesarios para alcanzar la conducta a moldear con uso del clicker y el uso de la voz. Conclusiones: al menos en este estudio, el timing
y el moldeamiento no se ven afectados por el tipo de marcador de eventos usado. |
