Which method relies on unpleasant events (physical and verbal corrections) to obtain desired behavior?

• A. Inducive Training
• B. Compulsion Training
• C. Positive Reinforcement
• D. Negative Reinforcement

Answer: (B)

Compulsion training relies on applying aversive events to force the dog to comply. By using physical corrections and sharp verbal cues, the trainer aims to make the dog perform the desired behavior to avoid the discomfort or punishment. This contrasts with positive reinforcement, which builds behavior by rewarding the dog for the right actions, and with negative reinforcement, which increases a behavior by removing an unpleasant stimulus after the correct response. Inducive training isn’t a standard term used in typical MWD conditioning.
