EDF 6223 EXAM 1. SAMPLE EXAM REVISION PRACTICE QUESTIONS
WITH CORRECT ANSWERS (2024 UPDATE)
_____________is also called identity matching. This is the act of the subject matching the
primary
stimulus to the target stimulus. Showing a picture of a bird and the child saying "bird." - Answer
- reflexivity
_____________ refers to the two-way relationship of matching. For example, show a picture of a
bird
and say "bird." Point to the picture of the bird, and the subject says "bird." - Answer -symmetry
_____________ occurs when the equation if A = B and if B = C, then A = C. In other words one
stimulus is matched to a second stimulus. The second stimulus is matched to the third stimulus.
By this relationship,
the subject learns that the first stimulus and third stimulus are also matching. For example, if you
say "bird" and show a child a picture of a bird, then you show a picture of a bird and match it to a
real bird in a cage, the relationship of saying bird for the caged animal is acquired. - Answer -
transitivity
Who is credited with much of the pioneering research in stimulus equivalence? - Answer -
Murray
Sidman
Matching to sample procedure arranges a four-term contingency. Sample stimulus (antecedent
stimuli)
Correct comparison (antecedent stimuli) Selection Response Reinforcer The performance
produced by this four-term contingency is known as? - Answer -conditional discrimination
, NAME A TYPE OF NONEQUIVALENCE RELATION - Answer -distinction relations, spatial
and temporal relations, causal relations
What are the two types of models that are part of imitation? - Answer -planned and unplanned
Which one of these is not a condition for imitation? Immediacy; formal similarity; Mirroring; or
Model producing the controlling response - Answer -mirroring
With an understanding of the imitation process, applied behavior analysts can use imitation as an
intervention to: a.) Eliminate Old Behaviors b.) Evoke New behaviors c.) Create teaching
sequences d.)
Reinforce appropriate behaviors - Answer -b.) Evoke New behaviors
The controlling variable for an imitative behavior is: a.) An operative behavior b.)An imitative
response chain c.) A model d.) A pre-task - Answer -c.) A model
Learning to purchase a soda from a vending machine by first watching someone else purchase a
soda would be an example of: a.) Planned echoic stimuli b.) Unplanned echoic stimuli c.)
Planned models d.)
Unplanned models - Answer -d.) Unplanned models
When a child picks up a fork immediately after observing her father pick up a fork, this imitative
behavior has: a.) Planned similarity b.) Unplanned similarity c.) Formal similarity d.) Informal
similarity - Answer -
c.) Formal similarity
Regardless of the behavior modeled, the objective of imitation training is for the learner to do
what? a.)
What the model does b.) What the trainer asked or commanded c.) What behavior fits the
situation d.)
What behavior will receive reinforcement - Answer -a.) What the model does
