evidence - answer✔Being scientifically skeptical means that until there is available, assumptions

should not be made.


science, lawful relations - answer✔"___ is more than the mere description of events as they

occur. It is an attempt to discover order, to show that certain events stand in ___ to other events

(Skinner, 1953, p.6)."


mentalistic, explanatory - answer✔In Pavlov's early research, he did not jump to conclusions to

suggest that the dog was "thinking" of food, and therefore salivating. Instead, he carefully

controlled conditions that allowed him to show that particular stimuli can "acquire" the ability to

elicit secretion. His careful analysis of the scientific method allowed him to avoid both ___ and

___ fictions


debilitating - answer✔The evolutionary explanation for reflexes indicates that they are for the

survival of the organism. However, we know all too well that sometimes responses can be

conditioned that serve no purpose - even add a __ purpose - to our complex lives.


conditioning, stimulus control, novel - answer✔Skinner (1953) informed us "Although the

process of __ greatly extends the scope of the eliciting stimulus, it does not bring all the behavior

of the organism within such __ "(p. 56). Conditioning can add numerous different eliciting

stimuli, but it will never fashion a __ response.

species.


chain, learned - answer✔It can be difficult to distinguish between ontogenetic and phylogenic

established behaviors. For a person viewing a complex __ for the first time, it may seem

mysterious. But each step of the chain can be traced back to the shaping process. Just because the

shaping process was not observed, it does not mean that it was not __ . However, when we view

a spider spin a web "no comparable history can be invoked" to determine the phylogenic

contingencies at work (Skinner, 1966, p.1208).


genes, environment, cause - answer✔Moore (2015) stated " __ predispose an individual's

susceptibility to influence from the __ (p. 27). We must be careful not to assert that genes "__ "

behavior; rather, they set up the physical basis for the processes and structures that participate in

behavior. Behavior still occurs in the context of the environment.


model - answer✔Imitative responses necessarily require the learner to orient toward the __ rather

than the topographical correspondence of their behavior with respect to the model.


discriminative control - answer✔The use of the mirror provides the additional feedback required

to receive __ of the model.
