EDF 6225 MOD 9 EXAM QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS WITH
COMPLETE SOLUTIONS VERIFIED
motivating operations
environmental vairables that alter the effectiveness of a stimulus, object or event as
reinforcer
Value altering effect
either an increase or decrease in the reinforcers effectiveness
-establishing operation
-abolishing operation
behavior altering
either an increase or decrease in the current frequency of a behavior
-evocative effect
-abative effect
establishing operation (EO)
MO that increases the effectiveness of a reinforcer
abolishing operation (AO)
MO that decreases the effectiveness of a reinforcer
MO vs SD
MO defines if reinforcement is effective and SD tells you if reinforcement is available
Unconditioned motivating operation (UMO)
events, operations and stimulus with value altering effects that are unlearned
, 9 examples of UMO
deprivation of:
-food
-water
-sex
-sleep
-oxygen
-activity
being too warm
being too cold
increase in pain
UMO for punishment
alters the punishing effectiveness and alters frequency of behavior that does not
depend on learner history
conditioned motivating operation (CMO)
motivating variables that alter the reinforcers effectiveness due to learner history
surrogate CMO (CMO-S)
takes the place of a different MO (ex. water fountain takes the place of UMO of water
deprivation)
reflexive CMO (CMO-R)
makes its own removal effective as reinforcement (trying to avoid aversive event) ex:
student being asked to do something and does it to remove the demand
transitive CMO (CMO-T)
