DR & Antecedent Control
Respondent Conditioning
Stimulus Control
Functional Assessment
Applying Extinction
100

The acronym for a differential reinforcement to eliminate a behavior.

What is DRO?

100

The initial stage of learning when a new behavior is first established and then strengthened.

What is acquisition?

100

A stimulus or event that precedes a target behavior.

What is an antecedent?

100

The process of identifying the antecedent behaviors that evoke a problem behavior and examination of the reinforcing  consequences that maintain the behavior.

What is functional assessment?

100

Another name for extinction following negative reinforcement. 

What is escape extinction?

200

An attempt to increase desirable behavior by reinforcing a desirable communication response that serves the same function as an undesirable behavior. 

What is DRC (Differential Reinforcement of Communication) or FCT(Functional Communication Training?

200

A type of conditioning in which a neutral stimulus and an unconditioned stimulus are presented at the same time.

What is Simultaneous Conditioning?

200

The relationship between an antecedent, a behavior, and the consequence.

What is the three-term contingency or the ABC Model?

200

Sensory stimulation, escape/avoidance, attention, and access to tangible rewards. 

What are the four functions of behavior?

200

A group of responses that all have the same functional value

What is a response class?

300

Procedures to identify reinforcers.

What are Preference Assessments?

300

When a NS becomes paired with an already established CS-CR pairing.

What is Higher Order Conditioning?

300

Multiple stimuli that all have the same functional effect on a target behavior.

What is a Stimulus Class?

300

Interviews and questionnaires

What are indirect methods of functional assessment?

300

An extinction procedure for attention-seeking behavior.

What is planned ignoring?

400

Presenting discriminative stimuli for desirable behaviors and increasing response effort for competing undesirable behaviors.

What are examples of antecedent control?

400

Salivating for food, gag reflex, and avoidance of pain. 

What are some examples of behaviors influenced by respondent conditioning?

400

A type of generalization due to the physical similarity of a response or stimulus. Examples include driving a car, hitting a tennis ball vs racquetball and attending classes

What is Unlearned Generalization?

400

A specific functional assessment procedure to identify patterns of behaviors.

What is a Scatterplot?

400

Making arrangements to promote generalization & maintenance in the long-term.

What is the final step in the extinction process?

500

Antecedent Control, Differential Reinforcement and Extinction.

What are the three functional interventions?

500

Previous exposure to the CS, intensity of the stimuli and the number of pairings between the NS and the UCS. 

What are some factors that influence respondent conditioning?

500

A process in which behavior is reinforced when a discriminative stimulus is present and is extinguished when the S-delta is present, which makes a behavior more likely to occur when the discriminative stimulus is present. 

What is Stimulus Discrimination Training?

500

When a range of possible functions of behavior are explored using the scientific method.

What is Exploratory Functional Analysis?

500

Tendency toward frustration, unwitting 3rd Parties who undo your work, and spontaneous recovery

What are some challenges in using extinction?
