Reinforcement
Punishment & Extinction
Intervention Strategies
Behavior Change Concepts
Antecedent Control
100

The presentation of a stimulus after a behavior to increase its future occurrence is called?

Positive Reinforcement 

100

Taking away a toy after a child hits a peer is an example of what type of punishment? (This decreasing hitting in the future)

Negative punishment 

100

Reinforcing an alternative behavior while withholding reinforcement for problem behavior is what type of differential reinforcement schedule?

DRA

100

This form of learning occurs when a neutral stimulus becomes associated with an unconditioned stimulus

Respondent Conditioning 

100

A stimulus that signals reinforcement is available is called?

Discriminative Stimulus 
200

This reinforcement schedule presents a reinforcer after every correct response.

Continuous reinforcement (FR1)

200

Delivering a reprimand after yelling is what kind of punishment? (This decreasing yelling in the future)

Positive punishment 

200

Presenting choices before a demand is an example of what kind of strategy?

Antecedent Strategy 

200

A bell is paired with food until it alone causes salivation. What is the bell?

Conditioned Stimulus 

200

A stimulus that signals reinforcement is not available is called?

Sdelta 

300

This type of reinforcement occurs when a behavior produces a reinforcing consequence without the involvement of another person.

automatic reinforcement 

300

This process reduces behavior by no longer providing the reinforcing consequence.

Extinction 

300

Teaching a behavior in small steps by reinforcing successive approximations and placing previously responses on extinction is known as?

Shaping 

300

A child greets all adults by saying “Hi!” even if they haven’t met them. What kind of generalization is this?

Stimulus generalization 

300

Behavior that occurs more often in the presence of a specific stimulus is under what kind of control?

Stimulus Control 

400

A child stops cleaning when their parent nags them. Nagging stops. Cleaning increases. What type of reinforcement?

Negative reinforcement 
400

What do we call it when behavior temporarily increases after extinction begins?

Extinction burst 

400

Teaching a complex skill by breaking it into components and teaching them in order is called?

Chaining 

400

This concept refers to the gradual change in behavior across different situations, settings, or people after initial training, without additional teaching or reinforcement.


Generalization

400

A state of deprivation that increases the effectiveness of a reinforcer is what kind of operation?

Establishing Operation 

500

This foundational concept in operant conditioning describes how a specific antecedent signals the opportunity for a behavior, which is then followed by a consequence that influences future behavior.

three-term contingency (Antecedent–Behavior–Consequence)?

500

This type of punishment procedure involves the removal of a preferred stimulus following a behavior, leading to a decrease in the likelihood of that behavior occurring again.  

Response cost 

500

This self-management technique involves an individual recording their own behavior and using that data to prompt self-reinforcement or self-punishment, typically with the aim of altering behavior in the absence of a therapist.

Self-monitoring 

500

According to Stokes and Baer (1977), this strategy involves incorporating elements from the natural environment into training to increase the likelihood that behavior will generalize to real-world settings.

Programming common stimuli

500

A motivating operation that decreases the effectiveness of a reinforcer is called?

Abolishing operation
