  • Front
  • Back
stimulus
change in the environment, energy change
stimulus class
have similar effects on behavior --i.e. pens : they look similar, all used for writing, same function
Two general types of stimuli
Antecedents

Consequences
Determinants of Behavior
Organic and Environmental

current environmental events and previous experience
Functional Relations
when changes in an antecedent or consequent stimulus class consistently alter a dimension of a response class
3 of the basic operations that lead to learning
Pairing, Consequential,signaling
Pairing & signaling = S1-S2
Consequating = R-S
Consequential operations
presenting, withdrawing, withholding
Contiguity
Nearness of events in time
Contingency
Dependency between events
Functional relation between stimuli and respondent behavior
Respondent behavior is solely under the control of the antecedent
Describe the functional relation between stimuli and operant behavior
ABC
SRS
at least partially under the control of consequences
Operant Behavior
Operates or acts upon the enviornment
Behavior Altering Relation
Stimulus produces an immediate and momentary change in the response
Function Altering Relation
"permanent" alteration in a functional relation between stimulus and response, acts in the future
Phylogenic Provenance
Innate, evolutionary
ontogenic provenance
learned due to history of individual
Ivan Pavlov
Respondent conditioning
Psychic Reflex
salivation, dogs, digestion
Conditioned reflex
response elicited by stimulus that has been paired with a US
only involves reflex responses
Respondent Conditioning Procedures
Short delay -- very effective
Long delay -- effective
Trace -- sometimes
Simultaneous --not effective
Backward -- usually not
Higher Order conditioning
neutral stimulus paired with a previously conditioned stimulus rather than a US
ontogenic provenance
learned due to history of individual
Ivan Pavlov
Respondent conditioning
Psychic Reflex
salivation, dogs, digestion
Conditioned reflex
response elicited by stimulus that has been paired with a US
only involves reflex responses
Respondent Conditioning Procedures
Short delay -- very effective
Long delay -- effective
Trace -- sometimes
Simultaneous --not effective
Backward -- usually not
Higher Order conditioning
neutral stimulus paired with a previously conditioned stimulus rather than a US
John Watson
Baby Albert
emotional reactions can be learned
E.L.Throndike
Law of Effect, preceded Skinner's work on operant conditioning
B.F. Skinner
1938 --
Reinforcement
environmental change
follows a response
increases or maintains future frequency of response
reinforces responses not organisms
Premack Priinciple
if you don't eat your meat, you can't have your pudding
Unconditioned Reinforcers
"Primary" = food, water, sex, cocaine, nicotine, heroin
Generalized conditioned reinforcer
praise, money, tokens
paired with a variety of other reinforcers, effective for wide range of bx
negative reinforcement
has to be an aversive antecedent condition whose removal is reinforcing = i.e. pain = EO
RELIEF
Escape
terminates an aversive stimulus = negative reinforcement
Avoidance
terminates warning stimulus (a conditioned aversive stimulus correlated with upcoming onset of unconditioned aversive stimulus)
extinction burst
when a bx no longer reinforced, it will immediately and temporarily increase in frequency, duration, and intensity before it decreases
extinction of bx maintained thru negative reinforcement
responding no longer results in termination of the shock
for escape = demands are never again terminated
Unconditioned punishers
fire, shock, pain
Negative punishment
time- out, when engage in bx lose something good, decreases bx
Recovery from punishment
frequency of bx previously punished returns to baseline after punishment is withdrawn
Differential reinforcement
reinforce some responses
do not reinforce other responses
= differentiation = 1 bx increases, 1 bx decreases
Discrimination
reinforcing when a certain stimuli is present
not reinforcing when stimuli is not present
Discriminative stimuli v.
Motivating operations
availability v. motivation
omnibus term
cover various functions of stimuli at once
opposite of stimulus generalization
discrimination
opposite of response generalization
differentiation
differentiation
induction
response generalization
MO
value altering
behavior altering
Painful stimulation
EO not SD
mosquito bite evokes scratching the itch, the itching is:
EO or SD?
EO
Response independent schedules of reinforcement
time based schedules
DRH
differential reinforcement of high rates of responding --- Rfmt occurs if and only if rate of response is equal to or greater than a specified value, set above baseline rate
IRT
Rfmt occurs if responses emitted before a specified amount of time has elapsed, set below baseline, when responses occurring infrequently
Fixed Schedules
unsteady responding, pause and burst, pause after Rfmt
FI = scallop
Variable schedules
Steady responding

VR = steady, hi rates
Ratio schedules
higher rates of responding then interval schedules
Interval schedules
FI = slow, moderate rates, scallop

VI = consistent & stable, low to mod rates
Behavioral Contrast
If a procedure decreases bx in one context, bx may increase in another context AND
same with increasing Rfrmt in one context
Verbal Behavior
DOeS nOT equal oral language
includes: speaking, signing, pointing, writing, gesturing
Audience
listeners who belong to a trained verbal community
TACT
Naming, labeling
includes relationships and functions
MAND
requesting
asking
commanding
DUPLIC
echoing
imitating
copying a text

1-1 corres & similarity
CODIC
reading a text
taking dictation

1-1 corres, NO similarity
INTRAVERBAL
Answering
