Q

Differential reinforcement

A

Procedure involving reinforcement and extinction

22
Q

Differentiation results when

A

DR is based on different response topographies

23
Q

Shaping

A

DR used to gradually change topography or dimension of a response

24
Q

Inter-response time (IRT)

A

Time between two successive responses

25
Q

Compound schedule

A

Combination of 2 or more basic or DR schedules

26
Q

Concurrent schedules:
2 or more schedules of reinforcement are able to. What are 3 attributes

A

Operate simultaneously
Operate independently
For different responses

27
Q

Matching law

A

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

28
Q

Matching law occurs on

A

Concurrent schedules

29
Q

Multiple schedules:
2 or more schedules of reinforcement. What are 2 attributes

A

They alternate
Components are signaled

30
Q

Behavioral contrast

A

Shift in response dimension in an unchanged condition due to a change in another condition

31
Q

Behavioral contrast occurs on

A

Multiple schedules

32
Q

Mixed schedules
2 or more schedules of reinforcement. What are 2 attributes

A

That alternate
Components aren’t signaled

33
Q

Chained schedule
2 or more schedules of reinforcement. What are 3 attributes

A

Operate sequentially in specific order
Components are signaled
Results in a terminal reinforcer

34
Q

Tandem schedule
What are 3 attributes

A

Operate sequentially in specific order
Components aren’t signaled
Result in reinforcer

35
Q

Alternative schedule
2 attributes?

A

Operate simultaneously
Result in reinforcer after 1 component completed

36
Q

Conjunctive schedule
2 attributes

A

Operate simultaneously
Result in reinforcer after all components completed

41
Q

DRL stands for

A

Differential reinforcement of LOW rates of responding

42
Q

DRL is contingent on

A

Response rate equal to or lower than criteria

43
Q

DRD stands for

A

Differential reinforcement of DIMINISHING rates of responding

44
Q

DRD is contingent on

A

Response rates equal to or lower than a decreasing criteria

45
Q

DRP stands for

A

Differential reinforcement of PACES responding

46
Q

DRP is contingent on

A

Response rate within a specific range

47
Q

Schedule thinning

A

Increase of response requirement within reinforcement contingency

48
Q

Ratio strain

A

Decrease in responding due to increase in schedule reinforcement
