Operant behavior is selected by its: - ✔✔✔ANSWER-Consequences Operant conditioning encompasses: - ✔✔✔ANSWERReinforcement and punishment

The level of investigation that involves the collection of facts about observed events that can be quantified, classified, and examined for possible relations with other known facts, and often suggests hypotheses or questions for additional research is - ✔✔✔ANSWERDescription The level of investigation in which functional relations can be derived is

  • ✔✔✔ANSWER-Control The overall goal of ______________ is to achieve a thorough understanding of the phenomenon under study. - ✔✔✔ANSWERScience A functional relation means that - ✔✔✔ANSWER-Specific change in the dependent variable can reliably be produced by specific manipulations in the independent variable, and the change in the dependent variable was unlikely to be the result of confounding variables. This is the assumption upon which science is predicated, the idea that the universe is a lawful and orderly place in which all phenomena occur as the result of other events. - ✔✔✔ANSWERDeterminism

This is the defining characteristic of applied behavior analysis that demonstrates experimental control over the occurrence and nonoccurrence of the behavior. - ✔✔✔ANSWER-Analytic Name one of the attitudes of science - ✔✔✔ANSWER-DEERPP (determinism, emperism, experimentation, replication, parsimony, philosophic doubt) What is the philosophy of the science of behavior? - ✔✔✔ANSWERBehaviorism True or False: Radical behaviorism (Skinner's behaviorism) includes & seeks to understand all human behavior. - ✔✔✔ANSWER-True List one of the seven defining dimensions of ABA as described by Baer, Wolf, and Risley (1968). - ✔✔✔ANSWER-GETACAB (generality, effective, technological, analytic, conceptually systematic, applied, behavioral) A behavior that is elicited by antecedent stimuli and is "brought about" by a stimulus that precedes it is: - ✔✔✔ANSWERRespondent

A response is followed by a stimulus change, the effect of which is an increase in the future frequency of behavior. Which type of stimulus- change operation most likely occurred? - ✔✔✔ANSWERReinforcement Water is an example of ____________ reinforcer, while money is an example of a ____________ reinforcer. - ✔✔✔ANSWERunconditioned, conditioned A response is followed by a stimulus change, the effect of which is a decrease in the future frequency of behavior. Which type of stimulus- change operation most likely occurred? - ✔✔✔ANSWERPunishment A behavior that occurs more frequently under some antecedent conditions than it does in others is called a(n): - ✔✔✔ANSWERDiscriminative operant Food deprivation may alter the momentary effectiveness of food as a reinforcer. Food deprivation is an example of a(n): - ✔✔✔ANSWER- Motivating operation The three-term contingency is made of these three terms: - ✔✔✔ANSWER-Antecedent-Behavior-Consequence Answering the door when you hear the door bell and not when it is silent is an example of behavior being under: - ✔✔✔ANSWERStimulus control

The continuous questioning of the truthfulness and validity of theory and knowledge: - ✔✔✔ANSWER-Philosophic Doubt Behavior Analysis is comprised of 3 major branches: - ✔✔✔ANSWER- Behaviorism, EAB, ABA Respondant behavior - ✔✔✔ANSWER-The response component of a reflex;behavior that is elicited, or induced by anticedent stimuli Respondant conditioning - ✔✔✔ANSWER-A stimulus-stimulus pairing procedure in which a neutral stimulus is presented with an unconditioned stimulus until the nuetral stimulus becomes conditioned (Pavlov) Operant Behavior - ✔✔✔ANSWER-Behavior that is selected, maintained, and brought under stimulus control as a function of its consequences; each person's reportoire of operant behavior is a product of his history of interactions with the environment. Operant conditioning - ✔✔✔ANSWER-The basic process by which operant learning occurs; consequences (stimulus changes immediately following responses) result in an increased (reinforcement) or decreased (punishment)frequency of the same type of behavior under similar motivational conditions in the future.

Methodological behaviorism - ✔✔✔ANSWER-Philosophical position that considers behavioral events that cannot be publicly observed to be outside the realm of the science Radical Behaviorism makes 3 assumptions: - ✔✔✔ANSWER-1. Private events are behavior 2. Private events are only distinguished by its inaccessibility 3. No special properties Fuller (1949) - ✔✔✔ANSWER-One of the first students of operant behavior, with a 18 year old boy, arm raising response - injecting warm sugar in mouth after moving arm. The dimension of ABA that investigates socially important behavior - ✔✔✔ANSWER-Applied The dimension of ABA that measures the behavior in need of improvement and show change - ✔✔✔ANSWER-Behavioral The dimension of ABA that shows functional and replicable relationships - ✔✔✔ANSWER-Analytic The dimension of ABA that is written descriptions of procedures - ✔✔✔ANSWER-Technological

The level of investigation that demonstrates correlation between events is based on repeated observations is: - ✔✔✔ANSWERPrediction The level of investigation in which functional relations can be derived is:

  • ✔✔✔ANSWER-Control Which of the following is NOT an example of operant behavior? - ✔✔✔ANSWER-A dog blinking its eyes after a flash of light is presented. The controlling variables of primary importance in applied behavior analysis are located in - ✔✔✔ANSWER-The environment Two functionally distinct types of behavior important to behavior analysis include: - ✔✔✔ANSWER-Respondent and operant behavior Which of the following is considered a property of behavior amenable to measurement? - ✔✔✔ANSWER-Temporal Locus A _____________ denotes set or collection of knowledge and skills a person has learned that are relevant to particular settings or tasks. - ✔✔✔ANSWER-Repertoire Behavior is affected by stimulus changes that occur prior to and immediately after the behavior. The term ___________ refers to environmental conditions or stimulus changes that exist or occur prior to the behavior of interest. - ✔✔✔ANSWER-Antecedent

negative reinforcement - ✔✔✔ANSWER-Occurs when a behavior is followed immediately by the removal of a stimulus that increases the future frequency of the behavior in similar conditions. negative punishment - ✔✔✔ANSWER-A behavior is followed immediately by the removal (or decrease in the intensity) of a stimulus that decreases the future frequency of the behavior principles and behavior change tactics: - ✔✔✔ANSWER-Principles describe how behavior works, tactics use principles to create interventions Define satiation and deprivation - ✔✔✔ANSWER-satiation is too much and deprivation is not enough
