Cards in this deck (11)
- 11.) ____ ____ are variables in the environment that can alter the relative value of a particular reinforcer at a particular time. *MO's = ALTER reinforcer at a given time1.) MOTIVATING OPERATIONS
- 2Variables of Reinforcer Effectiveness *Remember "DISC" 1.) D = ____ ; hasn't had access to a particular reinforcer for awhile 2.) I = ____ ; time between behavior & reinforcer (more immediate increases likelihood of behavior) 3.) S = ____ ; magnitude of reinforcer (want it to be balanced) 4.) C = ____ ; is used only for the targeted behavior (very SPECIFIC = stronger)1. Deprivation
2. Immediacy
3. Size
4. Contingency - 3Schedules of Reinforcement 1.) ____ schedule = learning NEW behavior 2.) ____ schedule = MAINTAINING behavior (reinforced some of the time)1.) CONTINUOUS
2.) INTERMITTENT - 4Intermittent schedules of Reinforcement *generate 1.) ____ response rates (prevents behavior from stopping) *Ratio schedules are based on the 2.) ___ of responses -3.) ___ ratio schedules: reinforcement given after fixed number of responses (FR#) -4.) ____ ratio schedules: reinforcement given after an average number of responses; HIGH responses without pause (especially in classrooms)1.) HIGH
2.) NUMBER
3.) FIXED ratio
4.) VARIABLE ratio (remember the slot machine example) - 5Intermittent schedules of Reinforcement *Interval schedules are based on the passage of 1.) ____ -2.) ___ interval schedule: reinforcement given after a specific amount of time has passed (i.e. every 3 seconds) -3.) ___ interval schedule: reinforcement is given after a variable amount of time (average amount of time)1.) TIME
2.) FIXED interval
3.) VARIABLE interval - 6Extinction *The definition of extinction is when a response 1.) __ ___ produces reinforcement. 2.) ___ ___ is when a behavior is no longer reinforced; the behavior will briefly INCREASE in frequency, intensity, or duration before it DECREASES. (stop the behavior because it is not longer effective) 3.) ____ ____ sometimes occurs with extinction procedures. Even though the behavior has not been reinforced, it may occur again with the same frequency and intensity as it once did. If extinction continues to remain in place when this occurs, then the behavior will go away again.1.) NO LONGER
2.) Extinction BURST
3.) SPONTANEOUS RECOVERY - 7Punishment *Punishment is an event that occurs AFTER a behavior and 1.) ___ that behavior.1.) DECREASES
- 8Exercise: Stan liked to tell dirty jokes. His friend Samantha, didn't appreciate them. She usually wouldn't say anything to him. She would just roll her eyes while others laughed. One day, Samantha had enough. When Stan told a dirty joke that offended her, she asked him to stop telling those kinds of jokes. Stan stopped telling dirty jokes. !.) What behavior decreased? 2.) Was something added or taken away after the behavior? 3.) What procedure was used?1.) Stan telling dirty jokes
2.) Added (Samantha added the comment)
3.) SP+ (Positive punishment) - 91.) _____ punishment is removing a stimulus AFTER the behavior, thus DECREASING that behavior. *Some commonly used negative punishment procedures are 2.) ____ from positive reinforcement and response 3.)____. 4.) ____ punishment occurs when an event is ADDED.1.) Negative
2.) timeout
3.) cost
4.) POSITIVE - 10*To use punishment procedures ethically and appropriately, you will need the supervision of an EXPERIENCED behavior analyst. *Although punishment is effective, it may have unwanted 1.) ___ ___. It may evoke emotional reactions such as escape, avoidance, anxiety, and aggression. *The person whose behavior is being punished may 2.) ___ the punishment procedures on others.1.) side effects
2.) imitate - 11—
