D01 Distinguish Between Dependent & Independent Variables Part 3

Question 1

When the experimenter manipulates the probability of attention for slapping, probability of attention is an example of the

Answer 1

Independent variable

Question 2

When the experimenter manipulates the probability of attention for slapping, frequency of slapping is an example of the

Answer 2

Dependent variable

Question 3

When the experimenter does not manipulate the response rate requirement to each points for typing numbers that match numbers on the screen, response rate requirement is an example of the

Answer 3

Extraneous variable

Question 4

A functional relation

Answer 4

May be defined as a relation between 2 variables, such that a change in the IV causes significant and predictable change in behavior

Question 5

A grad student conducts an experiment using a reversal design. A conditioned response is taught during the intervention, but during return to baseline, the conditioned response continues.

Answer 5

The student has not demonstrated a functional relation

Question 6

When the experimenter manipulates the response rate requirement to earn points for typing letters that match letters on the screen, the number of letters typed per minute is an example of the

Answer 6

Dependent variable

Question 7

A functional relation

Answer 7

All the above:
May be defined as a relation between 2 variables
May be defined as a statement, functional relation.
Can only be demonstrated with a well-designed experiment

Question 8

A teacher says that there is a functional relation between a student’s seat location and on-task behavior…..

Answer 8

The teacher has likely identified a functional relationship

Question 9

Experimental data repeatedly indicate that every time the teacher walks into the room, on task behavior increases

Answer 9

A functional relationship is demonstrated

Question 10

When the experimenter manipulates the response rate requirement to earn points for typing numbers that match numbers on the screen, response rate requirement is an example of the

Answer 10

Independent variable

Question 11

If experimental data indicate that an antecedent stimulus consistently evokes a behavior and this behavior doesn’t occur in the absence of that antecedent stimulus,

Answer 11

All the above:

Functional relation, stimulus control, motivating operation

Question 12

When the experimenter does not manipulate the probability of attention for slapping, probability of attention is an example of the

Answer 12

Confounding variable

Question 13

When the experimenter does not manipulate the probability of attention for slapping oneself, probability of attention is an example of the

Answer 13

Extraneous variable

Question 14

Experimental data indicating that changes in an antecedent or consequent stimulus class consistently alter the dimension of a response class defines

Answer 14

A functional relation
