(ABA) Chapter 4: Reinforcement Study Guide

(ABA) Chapter 4: Reinforcement Study Guide Abolishing Operation - Correct Answer️️ -One type of motivating operation. An event that decreases the potency of a particular reinforcer at a particular time and makes the behavior that produces that reinforcer less likely to occur. Satiation is a type of abolishing operation. Acquisition - Correct Answer️️ -The development of a new behavior through reinforcement. Aversive Stimulus - Correct Answer️️ -A stimulus that will decrease the future probability of a behavior when the stimulus is delivered contingent on the occurrence of the behavior. Also called a punisher. Avoidance Behavior - Correct Answer️️ -A behavior that prevents an aversive event. The behavior is negatively reinforced by the avoidance of the aversive event. Backup Reinforce - Correct Answer️️ -Reinforces used in a token economy. A client receives tokens for desirable behavior and exchanges a specified number of tokens for any of a variety of backup reinforcers. Concurrent Operants - Correct Answer️️ -Two or more different behaviors or response options are concurrently available for the person. Each response option is associated with a specific reinforcement schedule. TITLE: EMILLYCHARLOTTE 2024/2025 ACADEMIC PERIOD OWNER: EMILLYCHARLOTTE COPYRIGHT STATEMENT: ©2024 EMILLYCHARLOTTE. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED FIRST PUBLISHED: SEPTEMBER 2024 2/6 Concurrent Schedules of Reinforcement - Correct Answer️️ -Schedules of reinforcement that exist at the same time for two or more different behaviors (which are called concurrent operants). Which particular behavior occurs at a particular time depends on the relative schedule of reinforcement, magnitude of reinforcement, delay of reinforcement, and response effort for the available behaviors. Conditioned Reinforcer - Correct Answer️️ -A previously neutral stimulus that has been paired a number of times with an established reinforcer and consequently functions as a reinforcer itself. Consequence - Correct Answer️️ -The stimulus or event occurring immediately after a behavior. Contingency - Correct Answer️️ -A relationship between a response and consequence in which the consequence is presented if and only if the response occurs. When such a relationship exists, the consequence is said to be contingent on the response. Continuous Reinforcement Schedule (CRF) Schedule - Correct Answer️️ -A schedule of reinforcement in which each instance of the behavior is followed by the reinforcer. Deprivation - Correct Answer️️ -A condition in which the person has gone without a particular reinforcer for a period of time. Deprivation is a type of establishing operation; it makes the reinforcer the person has gone without more potent.

ALL RIGHTS RESERVED FIRST PUBLISHED: SEPTEMBER 2024 3/6 Escape Behavior - Correct Answer️️ -Behavior that results in the termination of an aversive stimulus. The termination of the aversive stimulus negatively reinforces the behavior. Establishing Operation - Correct Answer️️ -One type of motivating operation. An event that increases the potency of a particular reinforcer at a particular time and evokes the behavior that produces that reinforcer. Deprivation is a type of establishing operation. Fixed Interval Schedule - Correct Answer️️ -A schedule or reinforcement in which the reinforcer is delivered for the first response that occurs after an interval of time has elapsed. The interval is the same each time. Fixed Ratio Schedule - Correct Answer️️ -A schedule or reinforcement in which a specific number of responses must occur before the reinforcer is delivered. The number of responses needed for reinforcement does not change. Generalized Conditioned Reinforcer - Correct Answer️️ -A conditioned reinforcer that has been paired with a variety of other reinforcers. Money
