🗑
Socially mediated   Consequence delivered by responding of another organism  
🗑
Positive reinforcement   stimulus presented or magnified following response,increases or maintains future frequency  
🗑
Premack Principle   high probability behavior reinforce low probability behavior and low probability behavior punish high probability behavior  
🗑
Unconditioned reinforcer   Stimulus usually reinforcing without prior learning  
🗑
Conditioned reinforcer   Stimulus initially has no reinforcing properties;acquires through pairing unconditioned reinforcer  
🗑
Generalized conditioned reinforcers   Conditioned reinforcer paired with variety other reinforcers, effective for wide range of behaviors  
🗑
Avoidance   Behavior terminates warning stimulus  
🗑

Negative Punishment   stimulus is withdrawn, removed or attenuated following response, decreases future frequency of behavior.  
🗑
Positive Punishment   stimulus presented or magnified following response, decreases future frequency of behavior.
