Behavior - ANSWER An activity of living organisms.
What an individual does (how they respond in the situation).
It is observable and measurable.
, Response - ANSWER Specific instance of behavior.
4 types of Responses:
1. Correct
2. Incorrect
3. Non-Response
4. Prompted
Respondent Behavior - ANSWER Untaught or unconditioned responses. Reflex.
Respondent Conditioning - ANSWER New stimuli can acquire the ability to elicit
responses.
Occurs through pairing of two stimuli.
Stimulus - Stimulus Pairing (S - S)
Unconditioned Stimulus - ANSWER A stimulus that elicits an unconditioned response.
i.e. Food is an unconditioned stimulus for a hungry animal and salivation is the
unconditioned response.
Unconditioned Response - ANSWER A behavior that occurs naturally due to a given
stimulus.
i.e. Dogs salivating in the presence of food; yelping upon being bitten by an insect.
Conditioned Stimulus - ANSWER A previously neutral stimulus that, after repeated
association with an unconditioned stimulus, elicits the response produced by the
unconditioned stimulus itself.
Conditioned Response - ANSWER A behavior that does not come naturally, but must
be learned by the individual by pairing a neutral stimulus with an unconditioned
stimulus.
Unconditioned Reinforcers - ANSWER (AKA primary reinforcers) Stimuli that do not
require learning. (i.e. food, water, warmth, sleep, sexual stimulation)
Conditioned Reinforcers - ANSWER (AKA secondary reinforcers) Neutral stimuli that
have been paired with unconditioned reinforcers, or other conditioned reinforcers and
through repeated pairing become reinforcers themselves. (i.e. stickers, sound, people)
Generalized Conditioned Reinforcers - ANSWER Stimuli that have been paired with a
variety of unconditioned and conditioned reinforcers. (i.e. praise, attention, money,
tokens)
Operant Behavior - ANSWER Behavior that is controlled or influenced by
consequences.
Behavior whose future frequency is determined by a history of consequences.
