BACB Exam Review 2023 with 100% correct answers

Arbitrary Stimulus Class - correct answer An arbitrary response class contains stimuli that evoke the same response but do not share a common physical feature. The women's restroom signs are all different in their physical features: one contains an English word, one contains the universal symbol for women, and the other is a stylized female. The other examples are all feature stimulus classes, in that they share common physical forms. Stimulus Discrimination - correct answer reinforcing reponses in the presence of the discriminative stimulus and withholding reinforcement in the presence of the stimulus deltas Stimulus discrimination involves the behavior principles of - correct answer reinforcement and extinction response prompt - correct answer operates directly on the response stimulus prompt - correct answer operates on the antecedent task stimuli stimulus equivalence - correct answer Provides a methodology for efficient teaching-expanding learners' skills far beyond what is directly taught. - Stimulus equivalence should probably be the goal of all instruction. That is, if we can teach learners a few related stimulus-stimulus relations (not stimulus-response relations) and learners can put those together to broaden their learning well beyond that of what was directly taught, then this is a very efficient form of teaching and should be viewed as the "big prize" of education. This procedure has been studied in many areas of complex verbal relations, including reading, language arts, and math. It is hardly a "theoretical construct that has not been studied much." Stimulus Control - correct answer Occurs when the rate, latency, duration or amplitude of a response is altered in the presence of an antecedent stimulus EX: stop sign, green light, red light
