Applied Behavior Analysis

A

Scientific Approach for discovering environmental variables that reliably influence socially significant behaviors for developing a technology of behavior change that is practical and applicable. This is evidence based applied science

Prediction

A

AKA Correlation;Covariation. Two events may reguarly occur at the same time. This does not necessairly mean 1 causes the other

Q

Control

A

AKA Causation. Functional Relation. This is the highest scientific understanding. Experimental demonstration that manipulating 1 event (IV) results in another (DV)

Q

Analytical

A 
Functional Relation
Experimentation
Control
Believability 
Causation
Demonstrated a functional relation between the manipulated events and a reliable change in some measurable dimension of a target behavior.
20
Q

Generality

A

AKA-Generalization extends over settings behaviors and individuals

21
Q

Effective

A

Is the intervention working?
Clinically Significant?
Improves behavior in a practical manner not simply making a change that is statically significant

22
Q

Mentalism

A

Approach to explaining behavior that assumes an inner dimension exists and causes behaviors

23
Q

3 mentalisms umbrella

A

1) Hypothetical Constructs
2) Circular Reasoning
3) Explanatory Fiction

24
Q

Hypothetical Constructs

A

Presumed, unobserved

Free will, readiness, unobservable storage

25
Q

Explanatory Fiction

A 
Wants 
Knows
Figures out 
Another name for the observed behavior 
Contribute nothing to an understanding of the variables responsible for maintaining behaviors
26
Q

Circular Reasoning

A

Cause and effect are both inferred from the same information

27
Q

Behaviorism

A

Philosophy of science

28
Q

4 branches of ABA

A

Conceptual analysis
ABA
Experimental Analysis of Behavior
Behavior Service Delivery

29
Q

Conceptual Analysis

A 
AKA behaviorism 
Philosophical 
Theoretical
Historical
Methodological Issues
30
Q

ABA

A

Analysts that monitor, analyze, revise and communicate the effects of their work

31
Q

Behavior Service Delivery

A

Refers to many people in various fields outside ABA

32
Q

Experimental Analysis of Behavior

A

Research

Laboratories

33
Q

Ivan Pavlov

A

Respondent conditioning with dogs

1906 published first studies

34
Q

John Watson

A

Methodological Behaviorism- Publicly observed events.

AKA- Stimulus Response Behaviorism, SR Psychology, Watsonian Behaviorism.

35
Q

Skinner

A

Radical Behaviorism-Private events

36
Q

How did skinner come up with radical behaviorism

A

1)Darwinism Selection (Selection by consequences) and 2) Pragmatism (AB because of C) proposition lies in it’s observable practical consequences

37
Q

Respondent Behavior

A 
Elicit 
Involuntary
Phylogeny
Reflex
Habituation
Unconditioned Stimulus 
Unconditioned Response
38
Q

Phyologeny

A

Behavior inherited genetically

39
Q

Respondent Conditioning

A

AKA-Classical Conditioning

40
Q

Operant Behavior

A 
Emit/Evoke 
History of Consequences
Voluntary Action
Adaptation 
SRS
41
Q

Ontogeny

A

Interactions with his/her environment

42
Q

Operant Conditioning

A

AKA- Behavioral Contingency, 3-Term Contingency. The occasion for a response, the response and t outcome of the response.

43
Q

Contiguity

A

AKA-Temporal Contiguity

Applies to Respondent Conditioning
Close together in time affects pairing in CS and US

Applies to Operant Conditioning- Temporal congruity affects pairing of the behavior and consequence

44
Q

Respondent-Operant Interactions

A

An experience can often include both respondent and operant conditioning occurring together simultaneously

45
Q

What is not a behavior

A 
Hunger
Anxious 
Getting Wet 
Receiving Money
Blown by wind
46
Q

3 principles of behavior

A

Punishment
Extinction
Reinforcement
