|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Behavior modification | the application of operant conditioning principles to the control of human behavior, usually in schools or institutions
🗑
|
||||
| Contingency management | the application of operant reinforcement principles to the control of human behavior, especially in schools or institutions
🗑
|
||||
| Continuous reinforcement | in operant conditioning, the delivery of a reinforcer for every single response
🗑
|
||||
| Deprivation | The state of an organism with respect to how much time has elapsed since it has consumed or contacted a particular type of reinforcer; also refers to a procedure for increasing the effectiveness of a reinforcer
🗑
|
||||
| Fixed interval | A schedule of reinforcement in which reinforcement is delivered for the first response emitted following the passage of a fixed duration of time since the last response was reinforced
🗑
|
||||
| Fixed ratio | A schedule of reinforcement requiring a fixed number of responses for reinforcement
🗑
|
||||
| Instrumental conditioning | a form of operant conditioning in which only one response at a time is possible
🗑
|
||||
| Maintenance | Two meanings: 1. the extent to which the learner continues to perform the target behavior after a portion or all of the intervention has been terminated; 2. a condition in which treatment has been discontinued or partially withdrawn
🗑
|
||||
| Negative reinforcement | A contingency in which the occurrence of a response is followed immediately by the termination, reduction, postponement, or avoidance of a stimulus, and which leads to an increase in the future occurrence of similar responses
🗑
|
||||
| Partial reinforcement extinction effect | the fact that operant responses rewarded intermittently are more resistant to extinction than responses rewarded continuously
🗑
|
||||
| Post-reinforcement pause | a creature's tendency to stop responding briefly after reinforcement on fixed ratio or fixed interval schedules in operant conditioning
🗑
|
||||
| Positive reinforcement | A response followed immediately by the presentation of a stimulus change that results in similar responses occurring more often
🗑
|
||||
| Punisher | A stimulus change that decreases the future occurrence of behavior that immediately precedes it
🗑
|
||||
| Punishment | A basic principle of behavior describing a response–consequence functional relation in which a response is followed immediately by a stimulus change that decreases future occurrences of that type of behavior.
🗑
|
||||
| Rate of response | the most common way of measuring the degree of operant conditioning, consisting of counting the number of responses and dividing by the time involved in making them
🗑
|
||||
| Reinforcer | A stimulus change that increases the future frequency of behavior that immediately precedes it
🗑
|
||||
| Satiation | A decrease in the frequency of operant behavior presumed to be the result of continued contact with or consumption of a reinforcer that has followed the behavior
🗑
|
||||
| Variable interval | A schedule of reinforcement that provides reinforcement for the first correct response following the elapse of variable durations of time occurring in a random or unpredictable order
🗑
|
||||
| Variable ratio | A schedule of reinforcement requiring a varying number of responses for reinforcement
🗑
