establishing operation (EO)
One type of motivating operation. An event that increases the potency of a particular reinforcer at a particular time and evokes the behavior that produces that reinforcer.

EO
abolishing operation (AO)
One type of motivating operation. An event that decreases the potency of a particular reinforcer at a particular time and makes the behavior that produces that reinforcer less likely to occur.
satiation
One type of motivating operation. An event that decreases the potency of a particular reinforcer at a particular time and makes the behavior that produces that reinforcer less likely to occur.
AO
manipulating response effort
increasing response effort for problem behavior, decreasing response effort for desirable alternative behaviors
increasing response effort for problem behavior, decreasing response effort for desirable alternative behaviors

noncontingent reinforcement
the use of positive reinforcement that is not related to the occurrence of a target behavior. It involves delivering reinforcement on a fixed-time schedule independent of whether the individual exhibits the target behavior during the interval.

noncontingent reinforcement
What are the advantages of using these strategies for behavior modification?
??
What are the six antecedent control procedures?
presenting the SD: signals the behavior to occur
arranging the EO
Decrease response effort for desirable behavior: makes it more likely to happen
Presenting abolishing operations for undesirable behaviors: if the outcome of the undesirable behavior is less reinforcing, then you are less likely to engage in it
Removing discriminative stimulus for undesirable behaviors: decrease the likelihood the behavior reoccurring
increasing response efforts for undesirable behaviors: increase effort means less doing behavior
