Statement 1: After training A=B and B=C, an A=C relation emerged, and all
three stimuli (A, B, and C) can evoke the same response class. This means
that stimulus generalization has occurred.
(HINT: A, B, and C, in this case, should be in an arbitrary stimulus class, is
stimulus generalization a characteristic of arbitrary stimulus classes?)
Statement 2: An individual has learned to correctly perform a task when
presented with Stimulus A in Setting A. If this individual can perform the
same task in Setting B without being trained, setting generalization has
occurred.
(HINT: Review the definition of setting generalization)
Only statement 2 is correct.
Both statements are correct.
Only statement 1 is correct.
, Neither statement is correct. - ANSWER Only statement 2 is correct.
Which of the following statements is correct about a matching-to-sample
task?
Statement 1: Whether a specific comparison stimulus acts as an SD or an S𝛥
is determined by the conditional stimulus.
Statement 2: Whether a response to a specific comparison stimulus will
produce reinforcement depends on the context in which that response is
made.
(HINT: In a matching-to-sample task, a child is presented with a number of
different stimuli and selection of the stimulus is based on the sample.)
Only statement 2 is correct.
Neither statement is correct.
Only statement 1 is correct.
Both statements are correct. - ANSWER Both statements are correct.
Which of the following two scenarios is an example of response
, generalization?
Scenario 1: Stylax's mom taught him how to use cash to buy groceries. One
day, Stylax saw his mom's credit card. Without learning, he took the credit
card and pay for his groceries.
(HINT: Did Stylax learn the use of credit card? Was the function of the novel
response the same as the learned response?)
Scenario 2: Stylax's mom taught him how to use their rice cooker to make
rice. One day, Stylax saw a pressure cooker similar to their rice cooker.
Without training, he cooked rice using the pressure cooker with the same
method as the rice cooker.
(HINT: Did Stylax use the same behavior to cook rice in the pressure cooker?)
Both scenarios are examples of response generalization.
Neither scenario is an example of response generalization.
Scenario 2 is an example of response generalization.
Scenario 1 is an example of response gener - ANSWER Scenario 1 is an
example of response generalization.
