Motivating Operations (MO) -CORRECT ANS An environmental variable that alters
the reinforcing effectiveness of some stimulus, object, or event.
Contingency -CORRECT ANS Refers to dependent and/or temporal relations
between operant behavior an it's controlling variables.
Satiation -CORRECT ANS Repeated presentation of a reinforcer weakens its
effectiveness and for this reason the rate of responses declines.
Positive Reinforcement -CORRECT ANS A type of reinforcement in which the
presentation of the stimulus is contingent upon the response, resulting in an
increase in the future probability of that response
Negative Reinforcement -CORRECT ANS A type of reinforcement in which removal
of a stimulus is contingent on a response, resulting in an increase in the future
probability of that response.
Positive Punishment -CORRECT ANS A type of punishment in which stimulus
presentation is contingent on a response, resulting in the decrease of the future
probability of that response
Negative Punishment -CORRECT ANS A type of punishment in which stimulus
removal is contingent on a response, resulting in the decrease of the future
probability of that response.
Establishing Operations (EO) -CORRECT ANS Increases motivation for something
and increases likelihood you will try to access that reinforcer
Abolishing Operations (AO) -CORRECT ANS Decreases motivation for something
and decreases likelihood you will try to access that reinforcer

BKAT QR EXAM
Discriminative Stimulus (SD) -CORRECT ANS A stimulus in the presence of which a
particular response will be reinforced and in the absence of which that response will
not be reinf
Stimulus Control (Discriminative Control) -CORRECT ANS The tendency for the
target behavior to occur in the presence of the SD (b/c it was reinforced in the past)
Discrimination Training -CORRECT ANS Teach the child to respond to/tell the
difference between two (or more) SDs.
Discrete Trial Training (DTT) -CORRECT ANS A specific method of teaching in which
a task is isolated and taught across multiple trials. A specific opportunity
(antecedent) is presented and a specific response is expected. A consequence
follows the response.
Fluency-Based Training -CORRECT ANS Taking an existing skill and increasing
accuracy and speed of skill performance in order to develop competence
Errorless Learning -CORRECT ANS Involves early and immediate prompting of the
target response so that the learner's response is sure to be correct.
Most-to-Least Prompting -CORRECT ANS Fading from one type of prompt to
another less intrusive prompt. Most assistance to least assistance.
Least-to-Most Prompting -CORRECT ANS Staring with a least intrusive prompt
possible and the client is not successful, therefore having to move to more intrusive
prompts until the client responds.
Chaining -CORRECT ANS A chain of sequence of SDs and responses where each
response in the sequence (expect for the last one) produces the SD for the next
response in the sequence; A complex bx that is comprised of many single responses
that occur in a specific sequence
