Steps of the Scientific Method

✓ 3. Construct a Hypothesis
✓ 4. Test Your Hypothesis by Doing an Experiment
✓ 5. Analyze Your Data and Draw a Conclusion
✓ 6. Communicate Your Results
3-term contingency
✓ Basic unit of analysis in the analysis of operant behavior
Analytic
✓ Demonstrate a functional relation
Antecedent
✓ Environmental conditions or stimulus changes that occur prior to the behavior of
interest
✓ The science in which tactics derived from the principles of behavior are applied to
improve socially significant behavior and experimentation is used to identify the
variables responsible for the improvement of the behavior.
Automatic reinforcement
✓ Reinforcement that occurs independent of the social mediation of others
Automaticity of reinforcement
✓ Behavior is modified by it's consequences regardless of whether the individual is
aware of reinforcement
Aversive stimulus
✓ Stimulus conditions whose termination functions as reinforcement
Avoidance Contingency
✓ A contingency in which a response prevents or postpones the presentation of a
stimulus
Backup Reinforcer
✓ Reinforcers that can be purchased with tokens
Backward chaining
✓ A teaching procedure in which all behaviors are initially completed by the trainer
except for the final behavior in the chain.
✓ The portion of an organism's interaction with its environment
Behavior chain
✓ Specific sequence of responses in which each response produces a stimulus change
that functions as conditioned reinforcement for that response and an Sd for the next
response.
Behavior chain with limited hold
✓ A sequence of behaviors that must be performed correctly and within a specified
time to be reinforced.
Behavioral contract
✓ A document that specifies a contingent relationship between the completion of a
specified behavior and access to a reinforcer.
Behavioral cusp
✓ A behavior that has sudden and dramatic consequences that extend beyond the
change because it exposes the person to new environments, reinforcers,
contingencies, responses and stimulus control
Behaviorism
✓ Philosophy of the science of behavior
Concept Formulation
✓ Stimulus control that requires both stimulus generalization within a class of stimuli
and discrimination between classes of stimuli
✓ A stimulus change that functions as a reinforcer because of prior pairing with one or
more other reinforcers
Conditioned stimulus
✓ Stimulus component of a conditioned reflex
Consequence
✓ Stimulus change that follows a behavior of interest
Contingency
✓ Dependent and/or temporal relations between operant behaviors and its controlling
variables
Contingent observation
✓ Person is put in time out within setting so they can see ongoing activities but access
to reinforcers is lost
Continuous measurement
✓ Measurement conducted in a manner in which all instances of the response classes of
interest are detected during observation period
Count
✓ Number of occurrences of a behavior
