Unit 5

Question 1

Magnitude

Answer 1

The intensity of reinforcement, you can give quite clam verbal praise or loud and excited verbal praise. You could give a minini M & M or a giant M &M

Question 2

IV

Answer 2

Determining the Treatment
mand
training

Question 3

Concurrent schedules

Answer 3

Con W/ each schedule

-are available at the same time as apposed to multiple, mixed and chained.

Question 4

Time Based schedule of reinforcement

Answer 4

Also known as a non-contingent stimulus

• deliver or respons independent stimuls delivering because they are not specific to behavior but only the passage of time.
• Are actively a manipulation of MO
• must be careful to not accidentally reinforce the in appropriate behavior

Question 5

Limited hold

Answer 5

-can increase in rate, response occur quickly
-Window of opportunity, the response must occur with in a specific time limit following the
interval in order for the reinforcer to the be given.

Question 6

Ratio Strain

Answer 6

this ioccurs when a schedue of reinforcment is increased to greatly.
For example jumping form FR20 to an FR200 would create ration strain a decrease in in responding b/c to the organism it appears the behavior is on extinciotn

Question 7

Intermittent Reinforcer

Answer 7

Maintain reinforcement

Question 8

Opposite of ratio

Answer 8

Interval

Question 9

DRH or IRT schedule

Answer 9

Instead of setting the criteria according to the total, you set a Max IRT
ex. You must begin problem #2w/in 30 seconds of finishing problem #1.
-If and only if you start will you receive the reinforcer
Instead of setting the criteria according to total you set a maximum IRT

Question 10

3 Parameters of Reinforcer

Answer 10

Magntidude-intesensity
Quantity-#
Duration-Length of time

Question 11

Limited hold can increase in _____NOT ____!

Answer 11

Increase in rate not pattern

Question 12

What is a ratio Strain?

Answer 12

Thinning the schedule to quickly

There are greater pauses after reinforcement

Question 13

Mixed

Answer 13

Same as multiple, only no signal (w/o the signal, you are all mixed up)

Question 14

Simple schedule of Reinforcement variable interval

Answer 14

The 1st response after an average of a specific amount of time.
VI 1min the 1st response after an average amount of time

Question 15

Basic fact about scheduled reinforcement has to do with patterns

Answer 15

schedule of reinforcement produce predict patterns of responding in all living organism

• to help make a plan.
• Going to see graphs fro accumulative Bx (rate) all the time.

Question 16

Parameters of reinforcement Quantity

Answer 16

# or Amount
4 M & M or 12 M &M's

Question 17

When do you use intermittent reinforcement?

Answer 17

When teaching a new Bx start w/ CRF/FR1

-when minting a Bx use some schedule of intermittent-not every time Bx occurs, but intermittently provide reinforcement

Question 18

Simple schedules of reinforcement variable ratio (VR)

Answer 18

unpredictable, average variable # of responses must occur.
VR5 an average of every 5 responses contacts the reinforcer. Sometimes 1 occurs and is reinforced. Then 8 occur and the response contacts reinforcement, but it’s averages out to every 5th response

Question 19

Basic Facts of scheduled reinforcement

1. New Bx
2. Scheduled thinning

Answer 19

start w/ CRF/FR1
-when maintaining a Bx use some schedule of intermittent (not every time Bx occurs) though continuos reinforcement
Ex. manding teaching, asking of candy, always reinforcing FR1 then fading o/to reinforce after every one.

Question 20

Limited hold has to do with

Answer 20

can increase in rate, response occur quickly
Think of this as a WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY
can only be a VI

Question 21

A limited hold can result in an increase in rate but not any change patter?

Answer 21

because organism must respond quickly

Question 22

Duration

Answer 22

Length of time a person is allowed to have the reinforcer. 5 minutes of video or 10 minutes of video

Question 23

Quantity

Answer 23

The number of or amount: Purely numbers, 4 M&M

Question 24

Fixed =

Ratio=

Answer 24

h

Question 25

Fixed Ratio

Answer 25

Fixed-Always the same
Ratio=#
Fixed Raton is a fixed number of responses must occur Every 5th response contacts reinforcement: FR5

Question 26

Variable Ratio

Answer 26

Average number of responses must occur, VR5, an average of every 5 responses contacts the reinforcer. Sometimes 1 occurs and is reinforced. Then 8 occurs and the response contacts reinforcement, but it averages out to every 5th response.

Question 27

Fixed Interval

Answer 27

The first response after a specific amount of time. First response after 1 minute is an FI 1min

Question 28

Variable Interval

Answer 28

The first response after in average of a specific amount of time. VI 1 min. The first response after an average amount of time.

Question 29

Schedule thinning

Answer 29

Manding teaching asking for candy, always reinforcing FR1 then fading out to reinforce after every one.

Question 30

Fixed schedule

Answer 30

yield a pause and burst pattern (all or nothing). Loosely a spiky graph. The pause is related to the requirement of the schedule. Higher then number of responses or time results in a longer pause. Tide to a pattern of responding

Question 31

Ratio schedule

Answer 31

produce higher rates of Bx than interval schedules

Question 32

Behavioral

Answer 32

?

Question 33

IV

Answer 33

Determining the Treatment

Manding and training

Question 34

Concurrent schedules

Answer 34

Con with each schedule
are available at the same time, as apposed to multiple, mixed and chained
ex. I can open a a can of chips with a schedule of FR1 and I can ask my husband to take out the trash on a a VR

Question 35

Time Based Schedule of Reinforcement

Answer 35

Also known as non-contingent stimulus delivery or response independent stimulus delivery because they are not specify to Bx but only the passage of time. Are actually a manipulation of the motivating operation.
Have to be careful not to accidentally reinforce inappropriate Bx.

Question 36

Intermittent Reinforcer

Answer 36

maintains reinforcement

Question 37

Opposite of ration is

Answer 37

Interval

Question 38

Question 39

Basic Fact about scheduled Reinforcement has to do with patterns

Answer 39

Schedules of reinforcement produced predictable patterns of responding in all living organisms. to help make a plan. Going to see graphs from accumulative Bx (rates) at all times
