Metaphors in animal training, such as the “trust account,” arise for a good reason. We are looking for ways to do what is best for our animals. However, we often find flaws in these metaphors that seem difficult to explain. This episode helps provide answers by looking to behavior science to bring clarity. In this episode, we investigate the origin story of this metaphor, including some different approaches to psychology and why addressing contingencies and stimulus conditions is essential to overcoming undesired responses such as fear and aggression. --------------- 📚 RECOMMENDED CITATION Barbara Heidenreich.
