FR 20

LIke the previous training sessions, the goal for this session was for Fi-B to learn to press the bar 20 times for a reinforcement. Fi-B was quick to complete the task and immediately went to the bar and began pressing. By 16 minutes and 23 seconds, she had accumulated 363 presses. She appeared to cooperate more today and rarely left the back right corner by the bar. By 25 minutes and 47 seconds, she had pushed the bar 674 presses. Finally at the end of our 30 minute training session, she had an astounding 785 pushes for 39 reinforcements! This training session included lots of verbal reinforcement from my partner, EP, the pageant mom. Nevertheless, I found this training session to be quite stressful as Fi-B would wander around at times when she realized it took a large amount of bar presses.

(This is the cumulative record for FR 20. My apologies for the poor quality.)
