Which attitude of science/philosophical assumption of behavior requires
an assessment to determine if one (1) event caused another event? -
ANSWER - Experimentation (AKA Experimental Analysis)
Which attitude of science/philosophical assumption of behavior is the
method that scientists use to determine the RELIABILITY and
usefulness of their findings? - ANSWER - Replication
Which attitude of science/philosophical assumption of behavior is how
scientists discover their mistakes, thus making science a self-correcting
enterprise? - ANSWER - Replication

7 dimensions of ABA acronym - ANSWER - BATCAGE
7 dimensions of ABA - ANSWER - 1. B- Behavioral
2. A- Applied
3. T- Technological
4. C- Conceptually systematic
5. A- Analytical
6. G- Generality/Generalization
7. E- Effective
pg. 2
,3|Page
4 AKAs for the "Analytical" dimension of ABA - ANSWER - Functional
Relation, Experimentation, Control, Causation
Technological dimension of ABA - ANSWER - Defines procedures
clearly and in detail so they are REPLICABLE (like a recipe).
Conceptually Systematic dimension of ABA - ANSWER - All
procedures used should be tied to the basic principles of behavior
analysis from which they were derived.
Analytical dimension of ABA - ANSWER - -A FUNCTIONAL
RELATIONSHIP IS DEMONSTRATED.
-Describes when the experimenter has demonstrated a functional relation
between the manipulated events and a reliable change in some
measurable dimension of the targeted behavior.
What is the ultimate issue for the Analytical dimension of ABA? -
ANSWER - BELIEVABILITY: Is the experimental control sufficient to
prove a reliable functional relation?
2 primary types of behavior - ANSWER - 1. Respondent behavior
2. Operant behavior
3 AKAs of "Respondent behavior" - ANSWER - 1. Reflex
2. Reflexive Relations
3. Unconditioned Stimulus-Unconditioned Response (US-UR)
pg. 3
, 4|Page
Reflex - ANSWER - (Respondent behavior)
-The eliciting stimulus (i.e., unconditioned stimulus or US) and the
behavior it produces (i.e., unconditioned response or UR) that is part of
an organism's genetic endowment.
Habituation - ANSWER - (Respondent behavior)
-When the eliciting stimulus is presented repeatedly over a short time,
the strength of the respondent behavior diminishes.
Respondent conditioning - ANSWER - Ivan Pavlov
-When new stimuli acquire the ability to elicit responses.
4 AKAs of "Respondent conditioning" - ANSWER - 1. Classical
conditioning
2. Pavlovian conditioning
3. S-S (Stimulus-Stimulus) Pairing
4. Conditioned Stimulus-Conditioned Response (CS-CR)
3 AKAs of "Operant behavior" - ANSWER - 1. S-R-S (Stimulus-
Response-Stimulus) Model
2. Three (3)-Term Contingency
3. ABC
