Experimental Analysis of Behavior
A.
A philosophical position that views behavior events that cannot be publically observed as outside of the realm of science
B.
A systematic approach for seeking and organizing knowledge about the natural world
C.
affecting improvements in behaviors that enhance and improve people’s lives by selecting behaviors to change that are socially significant

__________: the natural science approach to the study of behavior as a subject matter in its own right founded by Skinner
K.
the procedures for changing behavior and rationale for why these procedures were effective should be described in terms of the principles from which they were derived
L.
demonstrate a functional relationship between the manipulated events and a reliable change in the target behavior. Demonstrate effectiveness of the treatment and demonstrate experimental control
M.
the assumption that the world is a lawful and orderly place in which phenomena occur in relation to other events and not in a willy-nilly, accidental fashion

repeating condition within an experiment to determine reliability of effects and increase internal validity

mediating variables inside the organism (cognitive processes, drives, and free will) (mentalilistic)
incorrect
16.
A thoroughgoing form of behaviorism that attempts to understand all human behavior, including private events, in terms of controlling variables in the history of a person (onogeny) and the species (phylogeny)
incorrect
17.
A carefully conducted comparison of some measures of the phenomenon of interest (DV) under 2 or more different conditions in which only 1 factor at a time differs (IV)
incorrect
18.
must improve the target behavior to a practical degree; must produce behavior change that is clinically or socially significant
incorrect
19.
an approach to study behavior which assumes that a mental “inner” dimension exists that differs from a behavioral dimension
incorrect
20.
the act of ruling out simple, logical explanations, experimentally or conceptually, before considering more complex or abstract explanations
incorrect

A __________ exists when a well controlled experiment reveals that a specific change in the DV can reliably be produced by specific manipulations of the IV
incorrect
22.
the attitude that requires the scientist to continually question the truthfulness of what is regarded as fact
incorrect
23.
the science in which tactics derived from principles of behavior are applied to improve socially significant behavior and experimentation is used to identify the variables responsible for the improvement of behavior
incorrect
24.
procedures are identified and described with sufficient detail and clarity so that others may replicate what has been done
