[QUOTE="Northeast Stinger, post: 857254, member: 1640"] Positive behavioral reinforcement is certainly different from “above the line.” I just don’t know if the latter is a gimmick or not. The former is built on solid psychological research but the problem is that lay people don’t have the clinical training to implement it with any effectiveness and it usually has the opposite of the desired effect. “Above the line” is supposed to teach people to take responsibility for their own outcomes, inculcate team spirit and give an “in the moment” assessment of whether or not someone is making progress. I’m just not sure it’s that simple. Everyone is motivated differently and we each have different learning styles. To me being a good coach is recognizing that rather than a “one philosophy fits all” approach. But I freely admit that I’m not in practice and have no idea what the nuances of the Tech locker room are like. [/QUOTE]
