it looks like she's trying to tickle her but i don't know why. looks like learned helplessness- sammy is NOT escaping the demands. i wouldn't go so far as to say that she is intrinsically motivated to do the tasks, though.
@carolinacowgrl05 unfortunately, it looks like a poor attempt at "reinforcing" this child for her correct responses...her constant "Okay!" and touching the child could be improved with a smile and a "Good job!", and perhaps some tickles if the child is reinforced by this. Actually, if you look closely she is "tickling" the girl, but I don't think the girl is very motivated by this...luckily she has mastered this drill and appears intrinsically motivated already...
wow! what a difference!

After every few commands, the therapist reaches in and grabs the girl's sides? What is she doing here?
