Primary reinforcers
Give this one a try later!
effects don't depend on past learning/conditioning; biologically
conditioned based on survival value (e.g. food and water); good for getting
target responses, not for promoting generalized prductions
Construct Validity
Give this one a try later!
degree to which test scores are consistent with theoretical
constructs/concepts/expectations
,Conditioned generalized reinforcer
Give this one a try later!
Reinforcer whose effect doesn't depend on a particular motivational state
of the client (e.g. tokens/money)
Response generalization
Give this one a try later!
production of new (untrained) responses
Avoidance
Give this one a try later!
An action that results in not coming in contact with an aversive event and is
repeated when contact seems imminent
Variable ration schedule
Give this one a try later!
, number of responses need to earn a reinforcer is varied around an
average; results in high and consistent response rate
Interjudge (interobserver) reliability
Give this one a try later!
how similarly a subject's performance is independently rated/measured by
two or more observers (want at least 0.90; closer to 1.0 the better)
Concurrent Validity
Give this one a try later!
degree to which a new test correlates with an established test of known
validity
Conditioned/sensory reinforcers
Give this one a try later!
Praise, smiles, approval
Ordinal rating scales
Give this one a try later!
