EDF 6225 EXAM 2 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS GRADED
A+
Chained Schedules
two or more schedules in the same order, can be for same or different behaviors and
conditioned reinforcement for one element is the presentation of the next element. SD is
present
Multiple Schedules
Reinforcement occurs in an alternating, usually random sequence and can be identified
by the SD.
Concurrent Schedules
Reinforcement occurs when (a) 2 or more contingencies of reinforcement (b) operate
independently and simultaneously (c) for 2 or more behaviors.
Technological
the written description of all procedures used in the study is sufficiently complete and
detailed to enable others to replicate it.
Applied
investigates socially significant behaviors with immediate importance to the subject(s).
Generality
produces behavior changes that last over time, appear in other environments, or spread
to other behaviors.
Determinism
, The universe is a lawful and orderly place in which all phenomena occurs as the result
of other events.
Replication
repeating an experiment and producing the same results
Parsimony
All simple explanations are ruled out before more complex or abstract explanations are
considered.
Philosophic Doubt
The continuous questioning of the truthfulness and validity of all scientific theory and
knowledge
Experimentation
the controlled comparison of some measure of the phenomenon of interest (the
dependent variable) under two or more different conditions
Empiricism
The objective observation of the phenomena of interest
Conceptually Systematic
behavior change interventions are derived from basic principles of behavior
Analytic
demonstrates experimental control over the occurrence and nonoccurrence of the
behavior—that is, if a functional relation is demonstrated.
Behavioral
actually measuring the behavior in need of improvement and document that it was the
participants behavior that changed.
