EAP Mod 4 Vocabulary

Experimental Analysis of Behavior Module 4 Vocabulary and Definitions

TermDefinition
Multiple Control the control of behavior responses by many variables like discriminative stimulus, motivating variables, and reinforcement histories at the same time, variables may combine, compete or change
Convergent Multiple Control when multiple variables work together to influence a particular response, several stimuli must combine to produce the same response
Divergent Multiple Control an individual variable that influences many responses, a controlling stimulus leads to the possibility of different behavior responses
Adduction the initial shaping and reinforcement of a particular behavior under certain conditions then later influenced by a different and new set of contingencies leading to new behavior, evolved learning repertoire adapts to new contingencies
Joint Control response being simultaneously under the control of two different sources of stimulus control and their interaction is key to enabling the correct response
Novel Behavior behavior that has not been previously reinforced nor is it a variation of an existing response and usually studied in controlled (experimental) environments *arises from several well-documented mechanisms
Induction past reinforcement history of subject increases the likelihood of related responses
Response Generalization when the reinforcement of one behavior response increases similar responses in varying environments
Adjunctive Behavior unintended behavior response that is reliably observed as a side effect of an intermittent reinforcement schedule of the target behavior
Extinction-Induced Variability the emitting of new variations of previously reinforced responses by an organism when new reinforcement contingency is placed following the withholding of reinforcement
Observational Learning a behavior response learned by watching others model and imitating their behavior particularly if the modeled behavior is observed being reinforced
Imitation an organism observing another organism's behavior and replicating/modeling that same behavior
Social Reinforcement positive or negative reinforcement mediated by another person who acts as a stimulus that may increase other's behavior response due to associated social contingencies
Cooperation essential behavior where individuals align their behaviors to achieve the same consequence ultimately building and maintaining positive social relationships and fostering a united community
Pro-Social Behavior interactions like helping, sharing and cooperating that are influenced by various factors and essential to build and maintain positive social relationships, social norms are vital to its promotion and a useful strategy alongside modeling and reinforcement
Verbal Operant distinct function of verbal language that's controlled by environmental variables and helps explain why verbal antecedent/consequences happen (mand, tact, intraverbal, echoic)
Social Mediation
Relational Frame bi-directional relationship wherein we derive combined relations (humans exclusively), humans don't interact with stimuli as they exist rather as ongoing verbal behavior about the present stimuli being experienced (*learning repertoire)
Derived Stimulus Relations relationships between stimuli that are formed through relation to each other without being previously taught or reinforced (*stimulus equivalence) complex patterns of behavior self-organize
Transformation of Stimulus Function key idea behind RFT, one stimulus gains powerful functional properties due its relationship with another stimulus without being taught

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
