| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Response | Instance of behavior |
| Intensity | Force/magnitude |
| Frequency | Number of occurrences: count/rate |
| Duration | How long (minutes, hours) |
| Latency | How long after set point will behavior occur |
| Inter-response time | Time between episodes |
| operational definition | description of behavioral topography |
| analyze behavior | finding functions |
| modify behavior | change environment to change behavior |
| applied (7 dimensions of behavior analysis) | problems of social importance with populations of interest |
| behavioral (7 dimensions of behavior analysis) | not focused on labels, focused on changing target behavior |
| technological (7 dimensions of behavior analysis) | description input with details, someone should be able to replicate experiment perfectly |
| analytic (7 dimensions of behavior analysis) | not hypotheticals-- raw data that informs analysis, few subjects, baseline data and intervention, single subject design-- specifically responsible for change |
| effective (7 dimensions of behavior analysis) | clinical significance over statistical |
| generality (7 dimensions of behavior analysis) | behavior change not limited to lab setting, also works in daily life |
| target behavior | behavior of interest |
| duration | amount of time occupied by a response |
| permanent product | record something about the environment that changes |
| indirect measures | recall info about behavior (interviews, questionnaires, checklists, rating scales) |
| direct measures | record actual occurrence of behavior through observation |
| continuous recording | observe behavior continuously through event recording in real time (frequency/rate, duration, latency) |
| discontinuous recording | capture sample of behavior |
| continuous recording strategies | pen and paper, stopwatch, computer programs |
| whole interval | entire interval, may underestimate actual levels of behavior |
| partial interval | any portion of interval, may overestimate actual levels of behavior |
| momentary time sampling | occurs at the end of interval, poor for capturing discrete behaviors |
| frequency within interval | count of responses during each interval |
| reliability | extent to which measurement produces similar results upon repeated application to the same sample of behavior |
| interobserver agreement | how well do two individuals agree on the occurrence of a target behavior when using the same observation system? |
| calculating agreement | direct comparison-- lower amount/higher amount* 100 |
| AB design | introduction of a single independent variable following a single baseline condition |
| advantage of AB design | repeated measurement under both baseline and treatment conditions- allows for inspection of level, trend, and variability |
| limitation of AB design | no replication of effects- cannot rule out confounding variables |
| reversal design | introduction and removal of at least one independent variable following single baseline condition (ABA, ABAB, BAB, ABAC) |
| advantages of reversal design | simple but powerful demonstration of experimental control |
| disadvantages of reversal design | variability, trends, potential bad effects of reversal, sequence matters, irreversibility, occasional ethical questions |
| multiple baseline designs | introduction of an intervention across more than one baseline-- treatment will start at different times for multiple people |
| multi element (alternating treatments) | rapid alteration between two different conditions with at least 1 IV |
| changing criterion design | gradual performance criteria are applied at each step in treatment phase |
| concurrent | subjects start on same days but have different baseline lengths |
| noncurrent | subjects do not start on the same day but have different baseline lengths |
| respondent extinction | repeatedly present CS without pairing it with US |
| habituation | US presenting frequently in short period (flooding) |
| higher order conditioning | other NS are paired with CS (dog at vet that hates shots will now associate doctor's office with shot) |
| trace pairing | CS begins and ends prior to US |
| delayed pairing | CS and US overlap |
| simultaneous pairing | CS and US coincide exactly |
| backward pairing | US occurs prior to CS |
| aversive stimulus | stimulus that is unappealing to subject |
| appetitive stimulus | stimulus that is appealing to subject |
| conditioned aversive | stimulus that become undesirable |
| discrimination | when CR only elicited by certain stimuli |
| generalization | CR elicited by similar stimuli (little Albert) |
