Behaviour modelling is based on (1) observation, in which the desired behaviour is
modelled; (2) rehearsal,
during which time the trainee is given opportunities to practise the new behaviour;
(3) reinforcement, during which time the practice of the desired behaviour is
encouraged and rewarded; and (4) transfer, during which time the new behaviour is
applied back in the work environment.

, The decision tree is helpful in first clarifying what the performance discrepancy is, as
well as in asking the
question of whether or not the discrepancy is important enough to invest resources
in correcting. It then asks the question of whether or not the problem is a result of a
skills deficiency. It the answer is "yes," then there are a number of options to
consider that include formal training, practice, feedback, goal setting, changing the
job, or even the person in the job. If the answer is "no," then there are several
questions asked to help determine what the barrier to effective performance is, and
how to remove that barrier. For example, if non- performance is being rewarded,
then remove that reward, and arrange a positive consequence for performing
properly. The decision tree is useful to encourage an exploration of all the possible
barriers to effective performance, and not just jumping to the conclusion that
training is the best or only solution.
