conditioned punisher - ....ANSWER ....✔✔ A
previously neutral stimulus change that functions as a
punisher because of prior pairing with one or more other
punishers.
unconditioned punisher - ....ANSWER ....✔✔ A stimulus
that, usually, is punishing without any prior learning.
conditioned reinforcer - ....ANSWER ....✔✔ a stimulus
that has acquired reinforcing properties through prior
learning
Unconditioned Reinforcer - ....ANSWER ....✔✔ A
stimulus that, usually, is reinforcing without any prior
learning.
,2|Page
Side effects of punishment - ....ANSWER ....✔✔ May
lead to an increase in other undesirable behavior.
Can lead to problems such as escape & avoidance,
emotional outbursts, and behavioral contrast.
Reinforcer - ....ANSWER ....✔✔ any event that
strengthens the behavior it follows
Punisher - ....ANSWER ....✔✔ A stimulus change that
decreases the future frequency of behavior that
immediately precedes it.
Hernstein's Matching Law - ....ANSWER ....✔✔
suggests that when different schedules of reinforcement
are available at the same time for different behaviors,
individuals will distribute their behavior according to the
relative rates of reinforcement available for each
option.
antecedent, behavior, consequence - ....ANSWER
....✔✔ The three-term contingency is made of these
three terms:
,3|Page
antecedent - ....ANSWER ....✔✔ is the environmental
conditions or stimulus changes that exist or occur prior to
the behavior of interest.
behavior - ....ANSWER ....✔✔ An organism's
interaction with the environment.
consequence - ....ANSWER ....✔✔ is anything
immediately following a behavior in which we are
interested. Makes the behavior more or less likely to
happen in the future.
Discriminative Stimulus (SD) - ....ANSWER ....✔✔ is the
antecedent stimulus that has stimulus control over
behavior because the behavior was reliably reinforced
in the presence of that stimulus in the past. It signals the
availability of a particular reinforcer for a particular
behavior.
Motivating Operation (MO) - ....ANSWER ....✔✔
influences the effectiveness of a reinforcer or punisher
while also influencing the frequency of the specific
behavior.
, 4|Page
Premack Principle - ....ANSWER ....✔✔ Some
professionals will also refer to this technique as
"First/Then", "If/Then", or "High Probability/Low
Probability."
Automatic Reinforcement - ....ANSWER ....✔✔
reinforcement that occurs independent of the social
mediation of others.
when a person's behavior creates a favorable outcome
without the involvement of another person.
Response - ....ANSWER ....✔✔ An action or change in
behavior that occurs as a result of a stimulus.
Is a single instance of behavior.
respondent behavior - ....ANSWER ....✔✔ is defined
as behavior that is elicited by antecedent stimuli.
It is induced, or brought out, by a stimulus that precedes
the behavior: nothing else is required for the response to
occur.
i.e. bright light in the eyes (antecedent stimulus) will elicit
pupil contraction.
