Crop bottom of graphic

edit

The section below the diagram (the definitions) should be cropped.

  • The layout wastes space and causes the whole graphic to be reduced in scale in articles.
  • The terms are difficult to read and already defined in the diagram.
  • If necessary the terms could occur in a caption and probably do in the articles.
  • Cropping the bottom would permit the diagram to be rendered at a larger scale, more easily read.

If those definitions are kept in the graphic, a better scheme would be:

Positive: presence of a stimulus Reinforcement: increases behavior Escape: removes a stimulus
Negative: absence of a stimulus Punishment: decreases behavior Avoidance: prevents a stimulus
