Question 1: Extinction
Answer:
Discontinuing reinforcement of bx that was previously reinforced. Effects are decrease fx of the bx until it reaches a pre-reinforced level or ceases to occur.
Question 2: Premack Principle
Answer:
A principle that states making the opportunity to engage in high-probability behavior contingent on the occurence of low-frequency behavior that will function as reinforcement for the low-frequency behavior.
Question 3: Listener Training
Answer:
A listener is someone who provides reinforcement for verbal behavior.A listener also may serve as a audience evoking a verbal behavior.Example: A student receptively identifying when given a verbal direction to do so.
Question 4: Errorless Learning Procedures
Answer:
Student is not allowed to make a mistake any learning trial. If student does nothing/doesn't perform correctly, they are prompted to correctly perform the target response b4 the next trial begins or prevented from incorrectly responding at first.
Question 5: Continuous Measurement Procedures
Answer:
Measurement conducted in a manner such that all instances of the response class of interest are detected during the observation period.*Frequency, Latency, Duration, interresponse time, rate, topography.
Question 6: Frequency
Answer:
A ratio of count per observation time. Observation is a constant standard unit of time.
Question 7: Choice Measures
Answer:
Providing two or more alternatives to an individual.Ex. Pick reinforcer, order of programs, locations, etc.,
Question 8: Operant Conditioning
Answer:
The process and selective effects of consequences of behavior. Refers to the future frequency of behavior in similar condition.
Question 9: Automatic Reinforcement/Punishment
Answer:
Reinforcement or punishment that occurs independent of social mediation of others.
Question 10: Behavioral Contingencies
Answer:
The dependency of a particular consequence on the occurrence of bx.
Question 11: Functional Relations
Answer:
When a well controlled experiment reveals that a specific change in one event (DV) can reliably be produced by specific manipulations of another event (IV) & that the change in the DV was unlikely to be the result of extraneous factors.
Question 12: Echoic Training
Answer:
An elementary verbal operant involving a response that is evoked by a verbal discriminative stimulus that has point to point correspondence and formal similarity with the response.
Question 13: Temporal Locus
Answer:
Every instance of behavior occurs at a certain point in time w/ respect to other events. Response Latency, Interresponse time.
Question 14: Determinism
Answer:
The universe is a lawful and orderly place, all phenomena occur as a result of other events.
Question 15: Analytic
Answer:
A functional relation between the manipulated events and a reliable change in some measurable dimension of targeted behavior change.
Question 16: Parsimony
Answer:
All simple and logical explanations for the occurrence of phenomena must be ruled out first before exploring more complex/intrusive interventions.
Question 17: Temporal Extent
Answer:
Every instance of behavior occurs during some amount of time. Duration.
Question 18: Intraverbals
Answer:
An elementary verbal operant that is evoked by verbal discriminative stimulus & that does not have point to point correspondence w/ that verbal stimulus.
Question 19: Empericism
Answer:
Scientific knowledge is built on objective observation of the phenomena of interest.
Question 20: Response Class
Answer:
Similar responses that occasion the same consequences when presented with stimuli of a similar stimulus class.
Question 21: Positive Punishment
Answer:
Occurs when behavior is followed immediately by the presentation of a stimulus that decreases the future frequency of the behavior.
Question 22: Effective
Answer:
Behavior change procedures change behavior to a significant degree.
Question 23: Service Delivery
Answer:
Implement and evaluate behavior change programs that consist of behavior change tactics derived from fundamental principles of behavior discovered by basic researchers that have been experimentally validated for their effects on socially significant behav
Question 24: Arrange high-P Request
Answer:
An antecedent intervention in which 2-5 easy tasks w/ a known history of learner compliance are presented in quick succession immediately b4 a low-p task.
