stimulus change that has been paired with numerous forms of unconditioned and conditioned punishers

Question 7

behavior contrast

Answer 7

refers to the phenonemon in which a change in one component of multiple schedule that increases or decreases the rate of responding on that component is accompanied by a change in the response rate in the opposite direction of the other component

Question 8

response blocking

Answer 8

physically intervening as soon as the person begins to emit the problem BX to prevent or block the completion of the response

Question 9

overcorrection

Answer 9

a BX reduction reduction tactic in which contingent on each occurrence of the problem behavior, the learner is required to engage in effortful behavior that is directly or logically related to the problem

Question 10

restitutional overcorrection

Answer 10

contingent on the problem the learner is required to repair the damage caused by the problem bx by returning the enviornment to its original state and then engage in additional bx that brings the environment to better condition.

Question 11

positive practice restitution

Answer 11
