the schedule.
Conditioned punisher - correct answer ✔A previously neutral stimulus
change that functions as a punisher because of prior pairing with one or more
other punishers; sometimes called secondary or learned punisher
Generalized conditioned punisher - correct answer ✔A stimulus change that,
as a result of having been paired with many other punishers, functions as
punishment under most conditions because it is free from the control of
motivating conditions for specific types of punishment.
Negative punishment - correct answer ✔A response bx is followed
immediately by the removal of a stimulus (or a decrease in the intensity of the
stimulus), that decreases the future frequency of similar responses under
similar conditions; sometimes called Type II Punishment
Positive practice overcorrection - correct answer ✔A form of overcorrection
in which, contingent on an occurrence of the target bx, the learner is required

prevent completion of the targeted bx
Restitutional overcorrection - correct answer ✔A form of overcorrection in
which, contingent on the problem bx, the learner is required to repair the
