Questions and CORRECT Answers
conditioned punisher - Correct Answer- A previously neutral stimulus change that functions
as a punisher because of prior pairing with one or more other punishers.
unconditioned punisher - Correct Answer- A stimulus that, usually, is punishing without any
prior learning.
conditioned reinforcer - Correct Answer- a stimulus that has acquired reinforcing properties
through prior learning
Unconditioned Reinforcer - Correct Answer- A stimulus that, usually, is reinforcing without
any prior learning.
Side effects of punishment - Correct Answer- May lead to an increase in other undesirable
behavior.
Can lead to problems such as escape & avoidance, emotional outbursts, and behavioral
contrast.
Reinforcer - Correct Answer- any event that strengthens the behavior it follows
Punisher - Correct Answer- A stimulus change that decreases the future frequency of behavior
that immediately precedes it.
Hernstein's Matching Law - Correct Answer- suggests that when different schedules of
reinforcement are available at the same time for different behaviors, individuals will
distribute their behavior according to the relative rates of reinforcement available for each
option.
antecedent, behavior, consequence - Correct Answer- The three-term contingency is made of
these three terms:
, antecedent - Correct Answer- is the environmental conditions or stimulus changes that exist
or occur prior to the behavior of interest.
behavior - Correct Answer- An organism's interaction with the environment.
consequence - Correct Answer- is anything immediately following a behavior in which we
are interested. Makes the behavior more or less likely to happen in the future.
Discriminative Stimulus (SD) - Correct Answer- is the antecedent stimulus that has stimulus
control over behavior because the behavior was reliably reinforced in the presence of that
stimulus in the past. It signals the availability of a particular reinforcer for a particular
behavior.
Motivating Operation (MO) - Correct Answer- influences the effectiveness of a reinforcer or
punisher while also influencing the frequency of the specific behavior.
Premack Principle - Correct Answer- Some professionals will also refer to this technique as
"First/Then", "If/Then", or "High Probability/Low Probability."
Automatic Reinforcement - Correct Answer- reinforcement that occurs independent of the
social mediation of others.
when a person's behavior creates a favorable outcome without the involvement of another
person.
Response - Correct Answer- An action or change in behavior that occurs as a result of a
stimulus.
Is a single instance of behavior.
respondent behavior - Correct Answer- is defined as behavior that is elicited by antecedent
stimuli.
It is induced, or brought out, by a stimulus that precedes the behavior: nothing else is required
for the response to occur.
i.e. bright light in the eyes (antecedent stimulus) will elicit pupil contraction.
