the results of an experiment that describe the occurrence of the phenomena under
study as a function of the operation of one or more specified and controlled variables in
the experiment in which specific change in one event (dependent variable) can be
produced by manipulating another event (the independent variable) and that the change
in the dependent variable was unlikely the result of other factors (confounding variable).
Functional Relationship
It shows specific manipulations of one event (IV) produce a change in other events (DV)
and that change in the DV was unlikely the result of extraneous factors (confounding
variables)- this finding is the....
Independent Variable (IV)
The variable that is systematically manipulated by the researcher in an experiment to
see whether changes in the independent variable produce reliable changes in the
dependent variable. In applied behavior analysis, it is usually an environment event or
condition antecedent or consequent to the dependent variable. (sometimes called the
intervention or treatment variable)
Dependent Variable (DV)
The measured behavior in an experiment to determine if it changes as a result of
manipulations of the independent variable; in applied behavior analysis, it represents
some measure of a socially significant behavior. (Target behavior)
, antecedent
is the environmental conditions or stimulus changes that exist or occur prior to the
behavior of interest.
Behavior
An organism's interaction with the environment.
Consequence
is anything immediately following a behavior in which we are interested.
Stimulus Class
A group of stimuli that are similar along one or more dimensions (for example, they look
or sound similar, they have a common effect on behavior, or they occur at similar times
relative to the response).
Stimulus Class
You show a student a banana, kiwi, strawberry and plum. You ask the student, "What
are these?" The student says, "Fruit", even though they are all different fruits.
Response Class
is a group of responses that produce the same effect on the environment. (in other
words, several behaviors that have the same function.)
Response Class
A patient engages in head banging, screaming, and hitting staff which all produce the
same effect on the environment; the patient can escape their non-preferred therapies.
The 4 Reinforcer Dimensions
Rate of reinforcement, Quality of reinforcement, Reinforcer Delay, and Response effort.
