Abstract:

The speciality of endodontics encompasses numerous elements, but the use of a variety of instruments to shape root canal systems probably challenges the clinical time of practitioners more than any other. The aim of this article is to review some of the historic and contemporary approaches to this challenging practical objective.

Role of Shaping in Operant Conditioning

1.3K
Shaping is a technique used in operant conditioning to train complex behaviors by rewarding successive approximations toward the target behavior. This method is necessary because organisms are unlikely to perform complex behaviors spontaneously. Instead, shaping breaks down the desired behavior into small, manageable steps.
The steps involved in shaping begin with reinforcing any response that resembles the desired behavior. For example, parents might praise a child for picking up one toy. As...
