Test 1 Flashcards
_____________ is an approach toward assessment evaluation and behavior change.
Behavior modification
Behavior modification promotes adaptive ____________ behavior and reduce maladaptive behavior.
prosocial
What does behavior modification focus on?
behavior and current determinants
______________________ is a form of behavior modification
applied
_______________ relies on operant conditioning techniques and methods of assessment in everyday settings.
Applied behavior analysis
________________ is the learning and performance of novel response that have not been directly trained.
Rational Behaviorism
__________________ is a presentation or removal of an event after a response that increases the frequency of the response.
Reinforcement
_________________ is the presentation or removal of an event after a response that decreases the frequency of the response.
Punishment
______________ no longer presents a reinforcing event after a response that decreases the frequency of the previously reinforced response.
extinction
_____________ is reinforcing the response in the presence of training one stimulus but not in the presence of another.
Stimulus control and discrimination
What are the 4 goals of science?
describe
explain
predict
control
_____________ is when an individual observes another person engage in a particular behavior.
modeling/observational learning
_____________ refers to learning and performance of novel responses that have not been directly trained.
Rational behaviorism
______________ refers to the stimuli, settings, and contexts that occur before and influence behaviors. Example. instructions, gestures, or looks from others
Antecedence
______________ refers to the aspects themselves, what individuals do or do not do.
Behaviors
_____________ refers to events that follow behavior and may include influences that increase, decrease, or have no impact on what the individual does.
Consequences
What is the similarities between establishing operations and abolishing operations?
Increases the likelihood of behaviors to obtain the reinforcer
What is the difference between establishing operations and abolishing operations?
Abolishing operation decreases the likelihood of behaviors to obtain the reinforcer
What is discriminative stimuli?
S small “D” at the top
What is non discriminative stimulus?
S with small triangle at top
How can we use discriminative stimuli?
by reinforcement
How can we use non discriminative stimuli?
non reinforcement
What are the 3 prompts for Antecedents?
verbal
modeling
physical guidance
______________ refers to reinforcing a response in the presence of one stimulus or situation.
Stimulus control
How does forward chaining differ from backward chaining?
forward chaining goes in a sequence in order they are performed. Backwards chaining starts with the last sequence and goes backward by mastering each step first.
__________ is the escape behavior and is the desired behavior “ turns off” adverse event.
negative reinforcer
_____________ occurs when a stimulus is presented or removed after a behavior and the likelihood that behavior occurring the future decreases.
punishment
______________ refers to the cessation of reinforcement of a response that decreases the likelihood of the behavior in the future.
Extinction
___________ refers to the fact that the individual responds differently under different stimulus conditions.
Discrimination
___________ generalization refers to the generalization or transfer of a response to situation that those win which train takes place.
Stimulus generalization
_____________ generalization refers to the changes in behaviors other than those that have been trained or developed.
Response generalization
