What is a Token Economy? Since the beginning of human history there has been some form of token economy in place. From the use of giving food to giving coins or currency to those who perform a task for someone. Money is the most common current form of a token economy used in everyday life. Individuals get paid in money for completing a project or simple tasks by someone else. People are taught at a very early age how to earn money or rewards. According to Rodriguez‚ Montesinos‚ & Preciado

Token ring is a local area network protocol which resides at the data link layer (DLL) of the OSI model. It uses a special three-byte frame called a token that travels unidirectionally around a star-wired logical ring. Token ring frames travel completely around the loop. The name ’Token Ring’ is misleading since the physical topology is a loop. Each station passes or repeats the special token frame around the ring to its nearest downstream neighbor. This token-passing process is used to arbitrate

protocols. Ethernet is a family of computer networking technologies for local area networks‚ known as LANs. Ethernet was commercially introduced in 1980 and standardized in 1985. Ethernet has largely replaced competing wired LAN technologies such as a token. The Ethernet standards comprise several wiring and signalling variants of the OSI physical layer in use with Ethernet. The original Ethernet used coaxial cable as a shared medium. Later the coaxial cables were replaced with twisted pair and fibre

Ethernet vs. Token Ring Topology Ethernet and Token Ring LAN technologies operate in different ways and both systems have their inherent advantages and disadvantages. The decision on which topology to use can be influenced by a number of factors. The most common factors to consider are cost‚ reliability‚ speed‚ size‚ administration‚ security and growth. Ethernet is a frame-based computer networking technology for local area networks (LANs). It defines wiring and signaling for the physical

Token ring [pic] Token ring local area network (LAN) technology is a local area network protocol which resides at the data link layer (DLL) of the OSI model. It uses a special three-byte frame called a token that travels around the ring. Token-possession grants the possessor permission to transmit on the medium. Token ring frames travel completely around the loop. Initially used only in IBM computers‚ it was eventually standardized with protocol IEEE 802.5. Stations on a token ring LAN are logically

A token economy is a challenging behavior modification technique used as a last resource when other reinforces have not worked. Contrary to other behavior modification techniques that provide the subject with intangible goods‚ the token economy involves rewarding the individual with a tangible‚ universal “token”‚ which he or she can later exchange for any object or privilege of preference. The token earned is similar to money; the person has to collect enough to be able to afford the object or privilege

those in the classroom (Higgins‚ Williams‚ McLaughlin‚ 2001). Token economies can be successfully used in multiple settings to reinforce target behaviors (Higgins‚ Williams‚ McLaughlin‚ 2001). The Get ‘Em On Task program focuses on working with a classroom of tough kids using a form of token economy to improve classroom behavior (Rhode‚ Jenson‚ & Reavis‚ 2010).

Behavioral Therapy was introduced and defined to the family along with the concept of implementing a “token economy” in the family. Each family member agreed to the established rules of the “token economy” along with the problem solving techniques that will be implemented if issues arise. Beatrice described feeling very lonely‚ unimportant‚ and not valued within the family. These feelings stem from

Token economy programmes are a form of behaviour modification based on the principles of operant conditioning. They are used in prisons to encourage the reduction of anti-social behaviour and criminal behaviour; they involve awarding tokens to offenders if a desired behaviour is performed. The tokens may then be exchanged for various rewards. The aim is for the desired behaviour to be repeated. As a treatment it involves setting out a range of desirable behaviours and reinforcing the offender whenever
