Question 1
pts
Which statement is true?
Operant and respondent stimulus control are essentially identical, since both involve antecedent stimuli evoking a
response. In addition, the discriminative stimulus for operant behavior and the conditioned stimulus for respondent
conditioning serve the same function.
Conditioned stimuli acquire their controlling functions through association with stimulus change that occurs following
the behavior.
Correct!
Conditioned stimuli acquire their controlling functions through associations with other antecedent stimuli that elicit
behavior.
Correct.
All of the other answers are correct.
Question 2
pts
Which of the following statements is false?
Stimulus generalization and stimulus discrimination are opposites.
Correct!
Stimulus generalization is the same as response generalization.

A stimulus in the presence of which a response will be reinforced.
Correct!
A stimulus in the presence of which a response will not be reinforced.
Correct.
