significant human behavior. Focus on objectively defined, observable behaviors. Use science methods of
description, quantification, and analysis.

trainer except for the final behavior in the chain.

reduction, or postponement of a stimulus, which leads to an increase in the future occurrence of that
response.

a specified period



IRT Inter Response Time - interval of time between occurrences of the target behavior.



Motivating Operant - An environmental variable that (a) alters (increases or decreases) the
reinforcing effectiveness of some stimulus, object, or event and (b) alters (increases or decreases) the
current frequency of all behavior that have been reinforced by that stimulus, object, or event".
