BCBA Section 2
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Positive Reinforcement | Present the stimulus or increase intensity Increases future frequency of the behavior |
| Negative Reinforcement | Withdraw stimulus or decrease intensity Increase future frequency of the behavior |
| Positive Punishment | Present stimulus or increase intensity Decrease future frequency of the behavior |
| Negative Punishment | Withdraw stimulus or decrease intensity Decrease future frequency of the behavior |
| A _____________ is a set or collection of knowledge and skills an individual has learned that are relevant to a particular task such as our ABA knowledge | Repertoire |
| 3 Parts of Stimulus Equivalence | Reflexivity Symmetry Transitivity |
| ______________ is defined as a verbal pairing procedure whereby previously neutral stimuli can become conditioned punishers or reinforcers for humans without direct pairing | Verbal Analog Conditioning |
| A _____________ is a single instance of behavior | Response |
| Formal | Physical features of stimuli |
| Functional | Effect of the stimulus on behavior |
| Temporal | Refers to the temporal relationship of antecedents and consequences |
| A phenomenon in which change in one component of a multiple schedule increases or decreases the rate of responding on that component | Behavioral Contrast |
| Even though a stimulus has acquired stimulus control over a behavior, a competing stimulus can block the evocative function of that stimulus | Masking |
| When a previously neutral stimulus acquires the ability to function as a reinforcer through stimulus-stimulus pairing with one or more unconditioned or conditioned reinforcers | Conditioned Reinforcement |
| The presence of one stimulus condition interferes with the acquisition of stimulus control by another stimulus | Overshadowing |
| A __________ class is a group of behaviors that comprise an operant (i.e. have the same function), while a ___________ class is a group of antecedent stimuli that have a common effect on an operant class. | Response Stimulus |
| _________ is an immediate increase in the frequency of responding when an extinction procedure is initially implemented and ________ is the behavior that diminished during the extinction process recurring even though the behavior has not been reinforced. | Extinction burst Resurgence |
| 5 types of positive punishment interventions | Reprimands Overcorrection Shock Exercise Response Blocking |
| Consequences only effect _________ behavior. | Future |
| You scratching an insect bite you have on your arm is an example of _________ reinforcement | Automatic |
| With extinction the individual can still emit the target behavior (behavior will not produce reinforcement.) Different from ________ in which the target behavior cannot be emitted because the procedure calls for preventing the behavior from occurring. | Response blocking (punishment) |
| Difference between rule and a contingency-shaped behavior | Timing of Reinforcement |
| Two types of negative reinforcement | Escape Avoidance |
| Negative Punishment | Penalty principle |
| Automatic Reinforcement | Stereotypy |
| Behavior altering effects of an EO | Evocative effect |
| Positive Reinforcement | Type 1 Reinforcement |
| Unconditioned Reinforcer | Primary reinforcer |
| Behavior-altering effects of an AO | Ablative effect |
| A form of complex stimulus control in which the role of one discriminative stimulus is conditional on the presence of other discriminative stimuli (sometimes an MO) defines __________ | Conditional discrimination |
| An environmental variable that establishes (or abolishes) the reinforcing effectiveness of another stimulus and thereby evokes (or abates) the behavior that has been reinforced by that other stimulus | Transitive MO |
| A stimulus that has acquired its effectiveness by accompanying some other MO and has come to have the same value-altering and behavior-altering effects as the MO that it has accompanied. | Surrogate MO |
| A condition or object that acquires its effectiveness as an MO by preceding a situation that either is worsening or is improving | Reflexive MO |
