ABA 5011 FIT ExamQuestions and Complete
Solutions Graded A+
ABA Practice - Answer: To help other persons to achieve their outcomes with the implementation of
procedures validated by ABA researchers to make a difference in people's lives.
Abate - Answer: Behavior is NOT likely to occur under the current conditions.
Abative effect - Answer: A decrease in the current frequency of behavior that has been reinforced by the
stimulus that is increased in reinforcing effectiveness by the same motivating operation.
Abolishing operation - Answer: A motivating operation that decreases the reinforcing effectiveness of a
stimulus, object, or event.
Adaptation - Answer: A reduction in the frequency or magnitude of a response or a set of responses as a
result of prolonged exposure to a stimulus or an environmental context.
Analytic - Answer: Seeks to identify functional relations between manipulated environmental events and
behavior through systematic and controlled manipulations.
Antecedent - Answer: A stimulus which precedes, that is, occurs before a response.
Appetitive Stimulus - Answer: Its onset strengthens behavior that precedes its onset. Its offset weakens
behavior that precedes its offset. It abates behavior that removes it. It may elicit smooth muscle and
gland responses.
Applied - Answer: The implementation of basic principles to change behaviors of significance to clients.
,Applied Behavior Analysis - Answer: Applied research that applies the basic principles derived from EAB
to solve problems of social significance.
Audience - Answer: Composed of listeners who belong to a trained verbal community.
Automatic Reinforcement - Answer: The response itself directly produces the reinforcing consequence.
That is, the consequence is NOT mediated by another person.
Automaticity - Answer: Behavior is modified by its consequences irrespective of the person's awareness.
Aversive Stimulus - Answer: Its presentation evokes behavior that terminates it. Its onset weakens
behavior that precedes its onset. Its offset strengthens behavior that precedes its offset. It may elicit
smooth muscle and gland responses.
Avoidance - Answer: Terminates a "warning" stimulus; prevents or delays the onset of the aversive
stimulus.
Backward Conditioning Procedure - Answer: The ONSET of the US must come before the ONSET of the
CS; almost always ineffective.
Basic operations - Answer: Direct observation; Repeated measures; Graph data; Manipulation;
Systematic evaluation; Analysis and interpretation
Behavior - Answer: _____________ is everything that an organism does.
Behavior - Answer: The interaction of the muscles, glands, or other parts of a live organism with the
environment
Behavior altering effect - Answer: An alteration in the current frequency of behavior that has been
reinforced by the stimulus that is altered in effectiveness by the same motivating operation.
, Behavior Analysis - Answer: A natural science that studies functional relations between behavior and
environmental events
Behavior Chain - Answer: A sequence of responses in which each response produces a stimulus change
that functions as conditioned reinforcement for that response and as a discriminative stimulus for the
next response in the chain.
Behavioral - Answer: Directly observed and measured.
Behavioral Contrast - Answer: A change in one component of a multiple schedule that increases or
decreases the rate of responding on that component is accompanied by a change in the response rate in
the opposite direction on the other, unaltered component of the schedule.
Behavioral Technology - Answer: The set of assessment and behavior change procedures validated by
ABA researchers.
Behaviorism - Answer: The philosophy or world view underlying behavior analysis. Posits that behavior is
the subject matter of our science.
Burrhus Frederick Skinner - Answer: The Experimental Analysis of Behavior; The Operant Chamber
("Skinner Box"); Principles of Operant Conditioning; Radical Behaviorism; Analysis of Verbal Behavior;
The Cumulative Recorder; Programmed Instruction
Celeration - Answer: Change in one of the other dimensional quantities of behavior over time.
Chained Schedule - Answer: A schedule of reinforcement in which the response requirements of two or
more basic schedules must be met in a specific sequence before reinforcement is delivered.
Chained Schedule - Answer: A conditioned reinforcer is produced by completion of the response
requirements for that component schedule in the chain.
Codic - Answer: Under the antecedent control of verbal stimuli with point-to-point correspondence but
without formal similarity.
