Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The next step after giving praise using the Giving Praise Model is to encourage repeat performance. This means that the person giving the praise should motivate the individual to continue exhibiting the behavior that was praised. Option A, telling Yael to get back to work, is not appropriate as it does not provide any positive reinforcement. Option B, giving Yael a bonus check, is a form of extrinsic motivation and may not be necessary if the praise has been effective in motivating Yael. Option D, letting Yael thank her for the praise, is a nice gesture but it does not help to reinforce the behavior.
