1. Explain why Rick was let go and how reinforcement theory applies to this situation.
2. Explain Rosie and Walter’s reaction to Rick’s computer in terms of resistance to change. Use the concepts in this chapter to explain how Rick might have approached the computer situation so as to gain acceptance.
3. Explain Rick’s inability to “fit in” using social learning theory. Identify where breakdowns occurred.
