Q

Operant generalization

A

If antecedent situation is similar the desired response will occur
Ex: somebody else telling dog to roll over

16
Q

Discrimination

A

Occurs only with specific circumstances

Ex: only roll over for you in the house

17
Q

Continuous

A

Every single response is reinforced
Ex: work and money
If you stop, it will stop fast

18
Q

Associative behavior

A

Learning that events occur together

19
Q

Operant conditioning

A

Learn to associate a response ( our behavior) and its consequence

20
Q

Acquisition

A

Initial learning of a association

21
Q

Observational learning

A

Learning by observing others

22
Q

Latent learning

A

Learning that occurs but Is not apparent until there is an incentive to demonstrate it
