Q

Unpairing

A

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 stimulus.

Q

Transitive Conditioned Motivating Operation

A

An environmental variable that, 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.

Q

Q

Establishing Operation

change as reinforcement

Q

Copying A Text

A

A form of verbal behavior in which the respose is writing or printing, the controlling variable is a response- product of previous writing behavior, there is point-to-point correspondence between the controlling variable and the response, and there is formal similarity between the controlling variable and the response-product.

Q

Abolishing Operation

A

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

20
Q

Formal Control

A

When a controlling variable evokes a response and

there is point-to-point correspondence between the controlling variable and the response

21
Q

Evocative Effect

A

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.

22
Q

Point-To-Point Correspondence

A

A relationship between a discriminative stimulus and the response
it controls in which both the stimulus and response have two or
more components and each component of the stimulus controls a
specific component of the response

23
Q

Behavior-Altering Effect

A

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

24
Q

Conditioned Motivating Operation

A

A motivating operation whose value-altering effect depends on a learning history

25
Q

Response Product

A

A stimulus that is the result of someone’s behavior

26
Q

Relational Frame

A

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

27
Q

Combinatorial Entailment

A

Trained: A>B and B>C
Derived: A>C and C<a></a>

28
Q

Thematic Control

A

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

29
Q

Mediated Reinforcement

A

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

30
Q

Unconditioned Motivating Operation

A

A motivating operation whose value-altering

effect does not depend on a learning history

31
Q

Multiple Exemplar Training

A

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.

32
Q

Mutual Entailment

A

Trained: A > B
Derived: B < A

33
Q

Transformation of Stimulus Functions

A

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

34
Q

Reflexive Conditioned Motivating Operation

A

A stimulus that acquires MO effectiveness by preceding 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 and evokes all behavior that has accomplished that offset.

35
Q

Surrogate Conditioned Motivating Operation

A

A stimulus that acquires its MO effectiveness by being paired with another MO and has the same value-altering and behavior-altering effects as the MO with which it was paired.

36
Q

Verbal Behavior

A

Behavior reinforced through the mediation of
another person who has been specifically
trained to provide such reinforcement

37
Q

Recovery From Punishment Procedure

A

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 the punishment.

38
Q

Reinforcer-Abolishing Effect

A

A decrease in the reinforcing effectiveness
of a stimulus, object or event caused by a
motivating operation.

39
Q

Formal Similarity

A

A relationship between (1) a stimulus that evokes a response and
(2) the response-product of that response in which the stimulus and the response-product are both in the same modality and their physical patterns or sequences resemble one another

40
Q

Textual Behavior

A

A form of verbal behavior in which the response is vocal, the response is controlled by a prior stimulus that is the response-product
of writing behavior, and there is point-to-point
correspondence between the stimulus and the response

41
Q

Mand

A

A verbal response in which the form of the response is controlled by an establishing operation

42
Q

Verbal Stimulus

A

A physical energy change capable of affecting an
organism’s sensory receptors that has a specific form or pattern which as a unit has controlling effectiveness and is the result of verbal behavior

43
Q

Audience

A

A type of controlling variable that is usually a listener in the presence of whom verbal behavior is typically reinforced and that controls a group of response forms.

44
Q

Establishing Operation

A

A motivating operation that increases the effectiveness of some stimulus, object, or event as a reinforcer

45
Q

Motivating Operation

A

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.
