Combinatorial Entailment

Question 16

A generalized pattern of relational responding that is arbitrarily applicable and has the properties of mutual entailment, combinatorial entailment, and transformation of stimulus function

A stimulus change that occurs after a response has been admitted, increases the future probability of that response, and results from the action of another individual

Answer 17

Mediated reinforcement

Question 18

The occurrence of a previously punished type of response without its punishing consequence. This procedure is analogous to the extinction of previously reinforced behavior and has the effect of undoing the effect of punishment

Answer 18

Recovery from punishment procedure

The functions a stimulus has for a person can be changed on the basis of how it is related to other stimuli

Answer 22

Transformation of Stimulus Functions

Question 23

An environmental variable that a) Alters the reinforcing or punishing effectiveness of some stimulus, object or event; and b) alters the current frequency of all behavior that has been reinforced or punished by that stimulus, object, or event

Answer 23

Motivating operation

Question 24

A relatively permanent change in an organism’s repertoire of MO, stimulus, and response relations, cause by reinforcement, punishment, an extinction procedure, or a recovery from punishment procedure

Answer 24

Question 25

When a controlling variable evokes a response but there is NO point-to-point correspondence between the controlling variable and the response

Answer 25

Thematic Control

Question 26

An increase in the current frequency of behavior that has been reinforced by the stimulus that is increased in reinforcing effectiveness by the same motivation operation

Answer 26

Evocative effect

Question 27

A motivating operation that decreases the reinforcing effectiveness of a stimulus, object, or event

Answer 27

Abolishing operation

Question 28

An environmental variable that’s, as a result of a learning history, establishes or abolishes the reinforcing effectiveness of another stimulus and evokes or abates the behavior that has been reinforced by that other stimulus

Answer 28

Transitive conditioned motivating operation (CMO-T)

Question 29

Responding to one stimulus based on its relation to another stimulus or stimuli

Answer 29

Relational responding

Question 30

An alteration in the current frequency of behavior that has been reinforced by the stimulus that is altered in effectiveness by the same motivating operation

Answer 30

Behavior- altering effect

Question 31

Two kinds: a) The occurrence alone of a stimulus that acquired its function by being paired with an already effective stimulus, or b) the occurrence of the stimulus in the absence as well as in the presence of the effective simulus

Answer 31

Unpairing

Question 32

Individual is given multiple opportunities to make a response in a given context, the irrelevant features of the task vary across opportunities, but the condition for obtaining reinforcement remains the same

A decrease in the current frequency of behavior that has been reinforced by the stimulus that is increased in reinforcing effectiveness by the same motivating operation

Answer 38

Abative effect

Question 39

Establish that acquires MO effectiveness by proceeding some form of worsening or improvement. It is exemplified by the warning stimulus in a typical escape-avoidance procedure, which establishes its own offset as reinforcement that evokes all behavior that has accomplished that offset

Answer 39
