Description - -is a collection of facts about an observed event.
-Prediction - -repeated observations reveal that observing other events can
consistently result in accurately anticipating an outcome
-Control - -a specific change in one event can be reliably produced by
scientific manipulation or variables.
-Radical behaviorism - -is a branch of behaviorism that includes thoughts
and feelings in addition to the observable events
-Generality/Generalization - -Behavior change that lasts over time, appears
in environment other than the environment which it was taught and spreads
to other behaviors not targeted by the intervention
-Effective - -behavior that changes in a practical manner that results in
clinical or social significance
-Technological - -all procedures of an intervention, data and results of an
experiment or study are cleared outlined in detail so they can be understood,
replicated and implemented by anyone
-Applied - -the commitment of effecting improvements in people's
behaviors to enhance their quality of life.
-Conceptually systematic - -all procedures used in practice should be
related to the basic behavioral principles of behavior analysis from which
they were derived.
-Analytic - -when the experimenter has demonstrated a reliable change and
functional relation between the manipulated events of a target behavior.
-Behavioral - -Observable and measurable behavior that must be the
behavior in need of improvement.
-7 dimension of behavior - -GET A CAB
-Behavior - -an organism interaction with the environment "Dead man's
test"
-Response - -a specific instance of behavior
, -Stimulus - -events in the environment that affect the behavior of an
individual
-Stimulus class - -a group of stimuli that are similar along one or more
dimensions ( for example, they look or sounds similar, they have a common
effect on the behavior, or they at similar times relative to the response).
-Respondent conditioning - -a learning process wherein a previously neutral
stimulus (which would not alter behavior) acquires the ability to elicit a
response (alter behavior).
-Operant conditioning - -consequences that results in an increase or
decrease the frequency in the same type of behavior under similar
conditions (remember operant behaviors are controlled by their
consequences)
-Positive reinforcement - -a response is followed by the presentation of a
stimulus that results in an increase in behavior under similar circumstances
-Negative reinforcement - -a response is followed by the removal of a
stimulus that results in an increase on behavior under similar circumstances.
-Fixed Ratio (FR) - -a schedule of reinforcement where reinforcement is
provided after a fixed number of responses occur
-Fixed Interval (FI) - -a schedule of reinforcement where reinforcement is
provided after a fixed amount of time elapses.
-Variable Ratio (VR) - -a schedule of reinforcement where reinforcement is
provided variably after an average amount of responses are emitted.
-Positive punishment - -the presentation of a stimulus (punishment) follows
a response, which then results in a decrease in the future frequency of the
behavior.
-Negative punishment - -the removal of a stimulus (punishment) follows
response, which then results in a decrease in the future frequency of the
behavior.
-Automatic contingencies - -behaviors maintained by automatic
contingencies can be said to produce their own consequences, without
another person changing the environment in anyway in response to the
behavior interest
