Small and cumulative
A type of long-delayed outcome that interferes with behavior control is that which is
All the above:
Cumulative, small, improbable
Long-delayed outcomes that control the behavior that produces them are likely to be
Large
Taking the stairs instead of the elevator to improve fitness represents a
Small cumulative outcome
According to Malott, Whaley, and Malott (1997), a rule
Is an establishing operation
Long-delayed outcomes that control the behavior that produces them are

Long-delayed outcomes that control the behavior that produces them are likely to be
Probably and sizable
You use the help function of your software program to determine how to insert a picture and follow the procedure step-by-step to successfully insert a picture. This is an example of
Rule-governed behavior
All behavior that repeats and is controlled by the outcomes it produces can be classified as
Contingency shaped or rule-governed behavior
Behavior with a response to consequence delay of 30 seconds or more is likely
Rule-governed behavior
Kindergarten children… the behavior of the children who waited is an example of
Rule-governed behavior
Rule governed behavior is primarily a function of the
History of reinforcement with the rule-giver
According to Malott, Whaley, and Malott (1997), a rule
Establishes rule-breaking as an aversive motivating condition
Generally, when people speak in their native language, the grammar they use is
Contingency shaped behavior
You used the help of your software program to determine how to insert a picture and followed the procedure step-by-step to successfully insert a picture. You now perform this task fluently. Inserting a picture is now an example of
Contingency shaped behavior
