Unit 4

Question 1

Concurrent schedule

Answer 1

2 or more schedules operating simultaneously but independently for different response

Question 2

Matching law

Answer 2

Distribution of responding is equal to relative rate of reinforcement for each response

Question 3

DR in the experimental literature

Answer 3

Reinforcement for 1 response while extinction for another

Question 4

DR in the applied literature:

SR for 1 or more responses while

Answer 4

Minimizing SR, EXT, or SP for other responses

Question 5

DRO: Stimulus change contingent on

Answer 5

Absence of specific behavior

Question 6

DRO stands for

Answer 6

Differential reinforcement of other behavior

Question 7

Interval DRO:

“Reinforcement” contingent on

Answer 7

Target behavior not occurring at any point during the interval

Question 8

Momentary DRO:

“Reinforcement” contingent on

Answer 8

Target behavior not occurring at the moment the interval ends

Question 9

Progressive DRO (DRO-P)

Answer 9

Greater amounts of “reinforcement” for successive intervals in which criterion is met

Question 10

DRI:

Reinforcement contingent on

Answer 10

Behavior that is physically incompatible with the target behavior

Question 11

DRI stands for

Answer 11

Differential reinforcement of incompatible behavior

Question 12

DRA:

Reinforcement contingent on

Answer 12

Behavior that is functionally equivalent and competes with the target behavior

DRA stands for

Answer 13

Differential reinforcement of alternative behavior

Question 14

DRL stands for

Answer 14

Differential reinforcement of low rates of responding

Full-session DRL:

Reinforcementcontingent on

Answer 17

Response rate equal to or lower than criterion at the end of the session

Question 18

Spaced responding DRL (DRL-T): Reinforcement contingent on

Answer 18
