Re: Gracie and CAT

Hi Julie,
You did a great job for a first timer with CAT.
 
You asked how many times you should repeat. You must
repeat until you are consistently getting active friendly
responses.
 
As long as you only proceed forward when you have gotten
friendly Reponses, you will know when you can go on.
 
Let's say that you are now next to her. She lowers her head or
gives you some other friendly response and you have not had a
unfriendly response. Your next trial can include the hand movement.
 
That said, you may want to create a new trial that includes hand movement.
Find the hand movement threshold and mark it. Now, drop below threshold
to build friendly with hand movement.
 
If at any time you find that she has reverted to unfriendly, at this proximity, you will need to go back and re-build the proximity. Does this make sense?
