Ik mailde enige tijd geleden met Bob over het gebruik van secundary beloningen.
Hier een voorbeeld van hoe Bailey andere vormen van belonen toegepast heeft met paarden en krachtige respons aanleerde door het geven van een 'innerlijke' beloning.
I believe it is possible to teach strong behavior and without using food. Many times we trained horses, mostly miniature horses but some full sized, to do jumps and other strong behaviors on stage. Sometimes we used carrots, apple and some other foods to begin the behavior, but after a time the horse seemed to enjoy the jump and the short run that followed; the horse worked well simply for the exercise. The important part was to get the action or running on some cue or signal. We got the horse to run in a tight circle when the trainer held up an object, usually a small whip (which was never used to whip the horse, only used as a signal that now was the time to run.) We usually used a long lead, but sometimes just worked in a large enclosure. Most horses seemed to enjoy the run and we soon seldom used the carrots and other rewards.
We then introduced very low barriers, sometimes just a piece of wood. We gradually lifted the wood and moved around the jump point. At first it was RUN - JUMP - RUN. Then it was JUMP -RUN when the horse jumped well. If the JUMP was poor we stopped the run and just walked a bit. The more the horse jumped well, the more the horse got to run. We added multiple jumps and higher jumps.
We did all of this riderless with both small and standard horses. We did it for mules too, but the mule seemed less inclined to work for the exercise alone. We combined exercise and food with mules.
Er zijn dus meerdere wegen die naar Rome leiden
