SPE 526- MODULE 1 SET 2 STUDY GUIDE WITH COMPLETE SOLUTIONS antecedent - Ans:-A STIMULUS IN THE ENVIRONMENT THE PRODUCES BEHAVIOR IN AN INDIVIDUAL ORGANISM AUTOMATIC REINFORCEMENT - Ans:-Reinforcement that occurs independent of the social mediation of others (e.g., scratching an insect bite relieves the itch). automaticity of reinforcement - Ans:-behavior is modified by its consequences irrespective of the person's awareness. Person doesn't have to know that a consequence has occurred. AVERSIVE STIMULUS - Ans:-an event that an organism will avoid BEHAVIOR - Ans:-observable actions of ANY INDIVIDUAL LIVING ORGANISM BEHAVIOR CHANGE TACTIC - Ans:-a research-based, technologically consistent method for changing behavior that has been derived from one or more basic principles of behavior and that possesses ©GRACEAMELIA 2024/2025 ACADEMIC YEAR.

CONDITIONED REINFORCER - Ans:-A stimulus or event that has acquired reinforcing value by being associated with a primary reinforcer; also called a secondary reinforcer. conditioned stimulus (CS) - Ans:-in classical conditioning, an originally irrelevant stimulus that, after association with an unconditioned stimulus (US), comes to trigger a conditioned response. CONSEQUENCE - Ans:-WHATEVER EVENT THAT IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWS A BEHAVIOR CONTINGENCY - Ans:-THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TWO EVENTS, ONE BEING "CONTINGENT" OR A CONSEQUENCE OF THE OTHER EVENT. ABA SEES ALL BEHAVIOR AS A RESPONSE TO AN ANTECEDENT AND DRIVEN BY THE CONSEQUENCES.

DISCRIMINATED OPERANT - Ans:-a behavior that occurs more frequently under some antecedent conditions than it does in others Discriminative Stimulus (SD) - Ans:-A stimulus in the presence of which a particular response will be reinforced or punished environment - Ans:-the surroundings or conditions in which a person, animal, or plant lives or operates. EXTINCTION - Ans:-the diminishing of a conditioned response; occurs in classical conditioning when an unconditioned stimulus (US) does not follow a conditioned stimulus (CS); o
