Module 2: Foundational Terminology Cumulative Assessment
1, For the following foundational term, please select the definition below that best matches the
term.
classical conditioning
a) Refers to the removal of something aversive that increases the future rate of the behavior
it follows.
b) Refers to the delivery of something preferred that increases the future rate of the behavior
it follows.
c) Refers to the removal of something preferred that decreases the future rate of the
behavior it follows.
d) Refers to a consequence stimulus that increases the future rate of the behavior it follows.
e) Refers to a consequence stimulus that decreases the future rate of the behavior it follows.
f) Refers to the delivery of something aversive that decreases the future rate of the behavior
it follows.
g) Refers to organisms learning through interactions with their environment, including
reinforcement.
h) Refers to organisms learning through association (pairing) of a stimulus that
typically produces an automatic response in the organism with a previously neutral
stimulus, causing the neutral stimulus to trigger the same automatic response.
