Unit One Flashcards
An environmental variable that alters the reinforcing or 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
Motivating operation that establishes the effectiveness of some stimulus object or event as a consequence (reinforcer or punisher)
Establishing Operation
Motivating operation that decreases the effectiveness of a stimulus object or event as a consequence (reinforcer or punisher)
Abolishing operation
An increase in the momentary frequency of
Evocative effect
A decrease in the momentary frequency of behavior
Abative effect
The effect of a stimulus on a specific response may be an eight due to the evolutionary history of that species
Phylogenic Provenance
The effect of the stimulus on a specific response maybe learned due to the experiential history of the individual organism in the environment

CEO related to positive reinforcement
CEO(SR+)
A motivating operation whose value-altering the fact depends on a learning history
Condition motivating operations
Acquire the properties of an EO through contingent pairing with UEOs in much the same way that stimuli become S’s through pairing
Surrogate CEO (CEO-S)
Acquire the properties of an AO through contingent pairing with UAOs in much the same way that stimuli became S’s through pairing
Surrogate CAO (CAO-S)
And event that establishes another stimulus as a necessary condition to complete the response that the first event evokes, and thus statuses that second stimulus as a reinforcer
Transitive CEO (CEO-T)
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 (CAO-T)
Establishes its own termination as an effective form of negative reinforcement or punishment
Reflexive CEO (CEO-R)
Abolishes its own termination as an effective form of negative reinforcement or punishment
Reflexive CAO (CAO-R)
An EO for negative reinforcement; evokes avoidance behavior and evokes behavior that has resulted in its own termination in the past
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
An AO for negative punishment; evokes behavior that has resulted in its own termination in the past
Promise CAO-R
Behavior that terminates in aversive stimulus
Escape
Terminates a warning stimulus; prevents or delays the onset of the aversive stimulus
Avoidance
A response terminates a warning stimulus
Signaled avoidance
A condition aversive stimulus whose presence is correlated with the upcoming onset of an unconditioned aversive stimulus
Warning stimulus
No clear warning stimulus, but a response can still delay or prevent the occurrence of the aversive events
Unsignaled avoidance
The onset of painful stimulation establishes the reduction or offset of the stimulation as an effective form of reinforcement and evokes behavior that achieved such a reduction or offset
Negative reinforcement
