23
Q

History of Reinforcement

A

The collection of a person’s learning experiences within a specific response class or as part of a person’s personal repertoire.

24
Q

Joint Control

A

Two forms of verbal behavior combine for stimulus control of a response.

25
Q

MO

A

not thirsty after drinking a bottle of water.

Motivating Operation- How valuable something is at a specific moment in time.

26
Q

Negative Punishment

A

The removal of a stimulus that decreases the likelihood of a behavior.

27
Q

Negative Reinforcement

A

The removal of a stimulus that increases the likelihood of a behavior.

28
Q

Neutral Stimululs

A

A stimulus that does not have any affect on the behavior.

29
Q

Ontogeny

A

On to TJ Maxx

Selectionism through someone’s personal learning history.

30
Q

Operant Behavior

A

learned

Operant behavior is under the control of the person exhibiting the behavior, because it is learned.

#S-R-S

31
Q

Operant Conditioning

A

S-R-S pairing

The use of reinforcement or punishment based contingencies, to change behavior.

32
Q

Phylogeny

A

Rabbit Example

Selectionism through a species.

33
Q

Positive Punishment

A

Adding a stimulus that decreases the likelihood of a behavior.

34
Q

Positive Reinforcement

A

Adding a stimulus that increases the likelihood of a behavior.

35
Q

Principles of Behavior

A

Punishment, reinforcement, and extinction.

36
Q

Punisher

A

Something that decreases the future frequency of a behavior.

37
Q

Punishment

A

Something that decreases the future frequency of a behavior.

38
Q

Reflex

A

An automatic reaction that is not learned.

39
Q

Reinforcement

A

Something that increases the future frequency of a behavior.

40
Q

Reinforcer

A

Something that increases the future frequency of a behavior.

41
Q

Repertoire

A

toolbox

Skills or set of knowledge that we already have.

42
Q

Respondent Behavior

A

involuntary

Behavior that is elicited due to the antecedent alone, and which is needed for survival.

43
Q

Respondent Conditioning

A

pavlovsdog

The process of pairing of a neutral stimulus with an unconditioned stimulus to eventually elicit the conditioned response.

#classicalconditioning

44
Q

Respondent Extinction

A

Repeatedly presenting the conditioned stimulus in the absence of the unconditioned stimulus to reduce occurence of conditioned response.

45
Q

Response

A

A single instance of behavior.

46
Q

Response Class

A

A group of behaviors with the same function.

47
Q

Rule-Governed Behavior

A

before

Behavior that is under the control of a rule.

48
Q

Selectionism

A

Darwin’s Theory

Attributes that benefit a species are selected and survive leading to more adaptive repertoires.

49
Q

Socially Mediated Contingency

A

A behavior is affected by another person.

50
Q

Stimulus

A

5 Senses

An energy change in the environment.

51
Q

Stimulus Class

A

Stimuli that share similarities.

Formal, temporal, functional
+ Feature and Arbitrary

Q

Stimulus Control

A

An energy change in the environment that has control over a behavior.

53
Q

Stimulus- Stimulus Pairing

A

unlearned down

Something that you are born with that decreases the likelihood of a behavior.

56
Q

Unconditioned Reinforcer

A

unlearned up

Something that you are born with that increases the likelihood of a behavior.

57
Q

Unconditioned Stimulus

A

An energy change in the environment that you have no learning history with yet.
