What does “enforced sampling”, a technique in behavioral therapy, refer to?



Is it: a) unmotivated clients who think a reinforcer has no potency for them…b) Assisting unmotivated clients to develop target goals…c) training clients to assert themselves.
It is a question on a take home test, I have read all the lecture notes and it just isn’t there.

    Perhaps it is the same as “reinforced sampling” , which you can find a good definition of on Wikipedia, just type in key word “reinforcement” its way on the bottom of the page, hope this helps, good luck!

    “Enforced sampling” is the applied process of selecting a sample for testing or analyzing. I would choose “a” where your sampling would be “unmotivated clients who think a reinforcer has no potency for them…”. ( “b” and “c” are not examples of sampling.)
