Unit 1-3 Flashcards
An environmental variable that alters the reinforcing of punishing effectiveness of some stimulus, object, or event; and alters the current frequency of all behavior that has been reinforced or punished by that stimulus, object, or event.
Motivating Operation
An environmental variable that alters the reinforcing of punishing effectiveness of some stimulus, object, or event; and alters the current frequency of all behavior that has been reinforced or punished by that stimulus, object, or event.
Establishing Operation
A motivating operation that decreases the effectiveness of a stimulus, object, or event as a consequence (reinforcer or punisher).
Abolishing Opertation
An increase in the momentary frequency of behavior.
Evocative Effect
A decrease in the momentary frequency of behavior.
Abative Effect
The effect of a stimulus on a specific response may be innate, due to the evolutionary history of that species.
Phylogenic Provenance
The effect of the stimulus on a specific response may be learned, due to the experiential history of the individual organism in the environment

CEO(SR+)
A motivating operation whose value-altering effect depends on a learning history.
Conditioning Motivating Operations
Acquire the properties of an EO through contingent pairing with UEO’s in much the same way that stimuli become Sr’s through pairing.
Surrogate CEO
Acquire the properties of an AO through contingent pairing with UAO’s in much the same way that stimuli become Sr’s through pairing.
Surrogate CAO
An event that establishes another stimulus as a necessary condition to complete the response that the first event evokes, and thus establishes that second stimulus as a reinforcer.
Transitive CEO
Decrease in the effectiveness of a stimulus as a reinforcer and abate behavior which is maintained by the reinforcer whose value has been lowered (decreased).
Transitive CAO
Establishes its own termination as an effective form of negative reinforcement or punishment.
Reflexive CEO
Abolishes its own termination as an effective form of negative reinforcement or punishment.
Reflexive CAO
Abolishes its own termination as an effective form of negative reinforcement or punishment.
Threat CEO-R
An AO for negative reinforcement; abates avoidance behavior and abated behavior that has resulted in its own termination in the past.
Threat CAO-R
An EO for negative punishment; abates behavior that has resulted in its own termination in the past.
Promise CEO-R
