Chapter 30 Terms
This has occurred when a behavior lasts beyond the termination of the intervention
What is Maintenance
Instruction that provides practice with a variety of response topographies by incorporating both stimulus and response variations is called this.
What is multiple-exemplar training?
This happens when a particular stimulus is associated with a specific consequence.
When the reinforcer withheld matches the identified controlling reinforcer for the behavior, it is called this.
What is functional extinction?
When performance depends on discrimination between the sample stimuli and the sample stimulus presented in each trial, this is occurring.
What is conditional discrimination?
This has occurred when a behavior occurs in a non-training condition without extra training manipulations
What is Generalization
To teach a learner what stimulus conditions signal responding and which stimulus conditions DO NOT signal responding, the teacher may present these types of examples.
What are negative or "don't do it" teaching examples?
What is an S-delta?
An immediate increase in the rate of response following removal of reinforcement is called this.
What is an extinction burst?
When a learner demonstrates the reversibility of matched sample and comparison stimuli (e.g. A=B, then B=A), this is demonstrated.
What is symmetry?
This type of contingency is present when a learner cannot discriminate whether or not the next response will produce reinforcement.
What is an indiscriminable contingency?
When behavior analysts randomly vary noncritical aspects of the instructional setting they are doing this.
What is teaching loosely?
This is a behavioral outcome of stimulus generalization and discrimination characterized by identifying the must-have and the must-not-have features of each example.
What is class formation?
When a behavior is eliminated via extinction and then appears again in the future, it is called this.
What is spontaneous recovery?
This is demonstrated if after training that A=B and B=C), the learner derives that A=C.
What is transitivity?
This type of contingency is designed and implemented by the behavior analyst to achieve acquisition, generalization, and/or maintenance of a targeted behavior change.
What is a contrived contingency?
This type of reinforcement system provides reinforcement following a time lapse from the target behavior and makes it difficult for the learner to discriminate when reinforcement will be provided. A verbal repertoire is likely needed to mediate this.
What are delayed rewards?
This type of prompting requires changes to the stimulus or the addition of extra stimuli to support responding
What are stimulus prompts?
When a behavior continues to occur following implementation of an extinction procedure, the behavior can be described as this.
What is resistant to extinction?
When the learner selects a stimulus that is the same as the sample (e.g. A=A) this is demonstrated.
What is reflexivity?
This type of contingency is described by baiting someone to engage in a low effort behavior and then use interrelated contingencies to maintain or extend behaviors to achieve some high level reinforcer.
What is a behavior trap?
Visual schedules and cue cards are an example of this type of stimulus that promotes generalization when it is both functional for the learner and transportable to all important generalization settings.
What is a contrived mediating stimulus
This prompt fading technique starts with the most intrusive support and decreases over time.
What is most-to-least prompt fading?
What is extincted?
This occurs when teaching a new function for one member of an established equivalence class results in the same function holding for all members of the class.
What is transfer of function?
