SAFMEDs Project Flashcards
Mutual Entailment
A->
Taking Dictation
A form of verbal behavior in which the response is writing, the controlling variable is a response-product of someone’s prior vocal behavior, and there is point-to-point correspondence between the stimulus and the response
Function-Altering Effect
A relatively permanent change in an organism’s repertoire of MO, stimulus, and response relations, caused by reinforcement, punishment, an extinction, procedure or recovery from punishment procedure.
Repertoire Altering Effect
An alteration in the future frequency of behavior that
has been reinforced by the stimulus that is altered in effectiveness by the same motivating operation.
Echoic Behavior
A form of verbal behavior in which the response is vocal and
controlled by a prior auditory stimulus, there is point-to-point
correspondence between the stimulus and the response, and there
is formal similarity between the stimulus and the response-product
Unpairing
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.
Intraverbal
A verbal response in which the controlling variable is
a verbal stimulus, and there is NO point-to-point
correspondence between the stimulus and the
response
Transitive Conditioned Motivating Operation
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.
Mutual Entailment
A relation in one direction between two stimuli (e.g., A to B) entails a relation in the other direction (e.g., B to A)
Abative Effect
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.
Reinforcer-Establishing Effect
An increase in the reinforcing effectiveness
of a stimulus, object, or event caused by a
motivating operation.
Value-Altering Effect
An alteration in the reinforcing
effectiveness of a stimulus, object, or event
as a result of a motivating operation
Establishing Operation
An environmental change or event that precedes the
response to which it is functionally related and
increases the effectiveness of a particular stimulus
change as reinforcement
Copying A Text
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.
Tact
A verbal response in which the controlling variable is a non-verbal stimulus
Combinatorial Entailment
Two or more stimulus relations can mutually combine.
Relational Responding
Responding to one stimulus based on its relation to another stimulus or stimuli
Generalized Operant
An operant in which the form of the individual responses in the class vary considerably.
