Fuller · Answer 1

For those who display high levels of problem behaviour, the ratio of eight reinforcers to one reprimand should be used.

Explanation:

For reprimands with highly sensitive and problematic behaviour, it is necessary to take special care in order to cure the behaviour without much complications. This care includes dedicating at least 6 to 8 reinforcers for every single reprimand causing or exhibiting highly problematic behaviour. With utter care and sensible handling of reprimands through reinforcers it becomes gradually possible to manage any behavioural problems.
