An operant - correct answer ✔✔A class of responses (group or category of behaviors) that have same
effect in given context
What does membership in an operant class depend on - correct answer ✔✔The context and effect of the
responses - NOT THE FORM (physical properties) of the response. (GETTING SOMEONE TO LEAVE BY
SCREAMING OR FARTING - effect same not form).
What is a generalized operant? - correct answer ✔✔An operant which has not been directly reinforced.
(Animals also display generalized operants by language leads people to form and relate based on
generalized operants).
Relational Framing? Framing Relationally? - correct answer ✔✔Types of relational responding that
become generalized operants through MULTIPLE EXEMPLAR TRAINING.
What is relational responding - correct answer ✔✔Responding to one stimulus based on its relation to
another stimulus
Humans & relational responding - correct answer ✔✔Humans can respond to relations among stimuli
even when those relations are not based on physical properties (arbitrary relations)
Contextual Cues - correct answer ✔✔In the environment let you know that specific type of relational
responding will be reinforced, and certain features of context (e.g. is bigger than), become associated
with certain types of relational responding as they predict reinforcement for making type of relational
response.
Properties of RFT? - correct answer ✔✔1. Mutual Entailment
2. Combinatorial Entailment
3. Transformation of Stimulus
, What is relational framing? - correct answer ✔✔Psychological event of responding under contextual
control. It can be considered an operant (verbal behavior)
What is derived relational responding (arbitrarily applicable relational responding) - correct answer ✔✔A
relation between 2 or more stimuli that is not directly trained or taught, and is NOT based solely on
physical properties of stimuli.
What are trained relations based on? - correct answer ✔✔Operant & classical learning, which we can
use to derive an infinite number of relations between words, events, and meanings.
Derived Stimulus Relations provide us understanding of what? - correct answer ✔✔Symbolism and
generatively of language
What does RFT claim - correct answer ✔✔That derived stimulus relations are possible b/c types of
relational responding become generalized operants. RFT is a contextual account of how humans learn to
derive stimulus relations. Deriving relations among events is core of human language and cognition.
What is the difference between conditioned discrimination and derived relational responding? - correct
answer ✔✔Conditioned DiscriminatIion: based on NONARBITRARY FEATURES of stimuli (physical
properties)
Derived Relational: ARBITRARY features of stimuli.
- Animals can only learn arbitrary if they are directly reinforced (sit), humans can DERIVE relations (get
the other one)
What qualities must verbal behavior contain? - correct answer ✔✔- Mutual entailment
- Combinatorial Entailment
- transformation of stimulus
(polly want a cracker is not verbal behavior. Just behavior of making sound)
