Question
Answer
behavior modification   show
🗑
show Relationship between a behavior and its consequences. In some cases, events that precede the behavior are also specified by a contingency.  
🗑
show Technique in which children who have behaved disruptively in a play situation are required to sit out, and watch the others play nice. A return to the group is dependent on the child's acknowledgment that he or she understands the correct behavior.  
🗑
continuous reinforcement   show
🗑
differential reinforcement of other behavior (DRO)   show
🗑
show Responding differently in the presence of different situational events.  
🗑
show Stimulus whose presence signals an individual to respond because he or she has learned previously that its presence leads to reinforcing consequences.  
🗑
show Reduction in behavior that occurs as a result of the failure to reinforce previously reinforced behavior  
🗑
show Schedule of reinforcement in which the first response that occurs after a fixed amount of time has elapsed is reinforced.  
🗑
fixed-ratio schedule   show
🗑
functional anaylysis   show
🗑
intermittent reinforcement   show
🗑
show For Thorndike, the principle that behavior is determined by its consequences. Behavior followed by reward was "stamped in" & behavior followed by punishment was "stamped out" (Current operant-conditioning theory)  
🗑
mentalism   show
🗑
negative punishment   show
🗑
negative reinforcement   show
🗑
operant analysis   show
🗑
operant conditioning   show
🗑
show Tools used to facilitate certain behaviors, for example eyeglasses used by people w/ vision problems to facilitate sight, hearing aids used by the hearing impaired to facilitate hearing.  
🗑
show Presentation of an aversive stimulus following a response, with the result that the rate of that response decreases.  
🗑
positive reinforcement   show
🗑
positive reinforcers   show
🗑
show Stimuli that are innately aversive. They do not need to be paired with other aversive stimuli to achieve their aversive properties.  
🗑
primary reinforcers   show
🗑
prompts   show
🗑
punishment   show
🗑
redirection procedure   show
🗑
reinforcement   show
🗑
show Unique set of acquired behavior patterns.  
🗑
show A punishment procedure in which, contingent on undesirable behavior a positive reinforcer is removed or lost.  
🗑
show Stimuli that become aversive by being paired with other stimuli (primary or conditioned) that are already punishing.  
🗑
secondary reinforcers   show
🗑
self-control processes   show
🗑
self-management procedures   show
🗑
show Teaching a new behavior by rinforcing responses that successively approximate it.  
🗑
stimulus control   show
🗑
show The process by which responses made in the presence of a particular stimulus come to be made in the presence of other, similar stimuli.  
🗑
successive approximations   show
🗑
time-out from reinforcement   show
🗑
token economy   show
🗑
