evocative effect - an increase in the current frequency of behavior that has been reinforced by the
stimulus that is increased in reinforcing effectiveness by the same motivating operation
abative effect - A decrease in the current frequency of behavior that has been reinforced by the
stimulus that is increased in reinforcing effectiveness by the same motivating operation
Abolishing operation - A motivating operation that decreases the reinforcing effectiveness of a
stimulus, object, or event.
behavior-altering effect - An alteration in the current frequency of behavior that has been
reinforced by the stimulus that is altered in effectiveness by the same motivating operation.
conditioned motivating operation - A motivating operation whose value-altering effect depends
on a learning history.
establishing operation - A motivating operation that establishes (increases) the effectiveness of
some stimulus, object, or event as a reinforcer.
function-altering effect - A relatively permanent change in an organism's repertoire of MO,
stimulus, and response relations, caused by reinforcement, punishment, an extinction procedure, or a
recovery from punishment procedure.
motivating operation - An environmental variable that alters the reinforcing or punishing
effectiveness of some stimulus, object, or event; and alters the current frequency of all behavior that has
been reinforced or punished by that stimulus, object, or event
recovery from punishment procedure - The occurrence of a previously punished type of response
without its punishing consequence. This procedure is analogous to the extinction of previously
reinforced behavior and has the effect of undoing the effect of the punishment.
, Combinatorial Entailment - Trained: A > B and B > C
Derived: A > C and C < A
Combinatorial Entailment - Two or more stimulus relations can mutually combine
Generalized Operant - An operant in which the form of the individual responses in the class vary
considerably
multiple exemplar training - Individual is given multiple opportunities to make a response in a
given context, the irrelevant features of the task vary across opportunities, but the condition for
obtaining reinforcement remains the same
Mutual Entailment - Trained: A > B
Derived: B < A
Mutual Entailment - A relation in one direction between two stimuli (e.g., A to B) entails a relation
in the other direction (e.g., B to A)
Mutual Entailment -
Relational Frame - A generalized pattern of relational responding that is arbitrarily applicable and
has the properties of mutual entailment, combinatorial entailment, and transformation of stimulus
function
Relational Responding - Responding to one stimulus based on its relation to another stimulus or
stimuli
transformation of stimulus functions - The functions a stimulus has for a person can be changed
on the basis of how it is related to other stimuli
