◉ matching-to-sample procedure. Answer: A discrete trial
procedure for investigating conditional relations and stimulus
equivalence. A matching-to-sample trial begins with the participant
making a response that presents or reveals the sample stimulus;
next, the sample stimulus may or may not be removed, and two or
more comparison stimuli are presented. The participant then selects
one of the comparison stimuli. Responses that select a comparison
stimulus that matches the sample stimulus are reinforced.
◉ Sample Stimulus. Answer: What you are being presented with to
match to the correct answer/SD
◉ Comparison stimulus. Answer: The stimulus that changes until it
is recognizably different from the standard stimulus.
◉ Reflexivity. Answer: Stimuli-to-stimuli relation in which the
learner- without any prior training or reinforcement- selects a
stimulus that is the same as the sample stimulus
◉ What is the mathematical formula for reflexivity?. Answer: A=A
, ◉ Symmetry. Answer: Stimuli-to-stimulus relation in which the
learner- without any prior training or reinforcement- demonstrates
the reversibility of the sample stimulus and comparison stimulus.
◉ example of symmetry. Answer: If shown a pencil, Bobby can name
it. If shown three items (one of which is a pencil) and told to 'pick
the pencil' he can do so.
◉ What is the mathematical formula of symmetry?. Answer: A=B,
B=A
◉ Transitivity. Answer: Stimulus-to-stimulus relations that emerge
as a product of training 2 other stimulus-stimulus relations.
◉ Example of transitivity. Answer: Corgi = poodle
Poodle = dog
Corgi = dog
◉ Stimulus equivalence. Answer: the emergence of accurate
responding to untrained and non reinforced stimulus-stimulus
relations.
