16
Q

Watson

A

Said we should study behavior by direct observation of the relationship between environmental stimuli (S) and the responses (R) .S-R-S behaviorism.

17
Q

Skinner

A

Radical Behaviorism. It included public and private events.

18
Q

Skinner was influenced by what 2 main sources?

A

Darwinism Selectionism and Pragmatism : The relationship between the setting (A) and the behavior (B) is because of the consequence (C).

19
Q

What are the 2 Primary types of behavior?

A

Respondent Behavior and Operant Behavior

20
Q

Respondent Behavior

A

Reflex. Elicited by stimuli that immediately precede them (antecedent stimuli). Involuntary. (US-UR).

21
Q

Phylogeny

A

Behavior that is inherited genetically. Respondent.

22
Q

This behavior is due to phylogenetic history

A

Respondent

23
Q

Respondent Conditioning

A

When new stimuli acquire ability to elicit respondents

24
Q

Operant Behavior

A

Emit/Evoke. Behavior whose properties of occurrence is determined by its History of Consequences. Voluntary action. AKA S-R-S

25
Q

Which behavior elicits a response?

A

Respondent Behavior

26
Q

Which behavior emits/evokes a response?

A

Operant Behavior

27
Q

An Operant is defined by it’s

A

Function (not topography) & Adaptation (reductions in responding evoked by an antecedent stimulus over repeated presentations).

28
Q

What type of behavior is subject to Habituation?

A

Respondent Behavior

29
Q

What type of behavior is subject to Adaptation?

A

Operant Behavior

30
Q

What type of learning results from an organism’s interaction with his/her environment?

A

Ontogeny (Operant)

31
Q

Operant Contingency is AKA

A

Behavioral Contingency, 3 Term Contingency, ABC

32
Q

Operant Contingency

A

The dependency of a consequence on the occurrence of a behavior.

33
Q

What is the Primary Unit of Analysis in ABA?

A

The 3 Term Contingency (ABC)

34
Q

How does Temporal Contiguity apply to Respondent Conditioning?

A

It affects how close in time the CS & UCS are paired.

35
Q

How does Temporal Contiguity apply to Operant Conditioning?

A

It affects how close in time the pairing of the behavior and consequence are. Ex. Superstitious bx
