Functional Response Class

a group of responses that produce the same effect on the environment

Stimulus Class

a group of stimuli that share common elements along formal, temporal, or functional dimensions

Stimulus Control

a situation in which the frequency, latency, or duration of a behavior is altered by the presence or absence of an antecedent stimulus

Discriminative Stimulus

antecedent stimulus that evokes the occurrence of an operant behavior because in its presence a specific response or set of responses is associated with more frequent reinforcement than in the absence of the stimulus

Abolishing Operation

antecedent variable that decreases the effectiveness of a stimulus as a reinforcer and decreases the likelihood of behavior that has been previously reinforced by that stimulus

Establishing Operation

antecedent variable that increases the effectiveness of a stimulus as a reinforcer and increases the likelihood of behavior that has been previously reinforced by that stimulus

Stimulus

any event, external or internal to the organism that can affect behavior

Behavior

anything an organism does; any action of an organism that can be brought under respondent or operant control

Shaping

differential reinforcement of successive approximations to a terminal behavior

Motivating Operation

environmental variable that alters (increases or decreases) the reinforcing or punishing effectiveness of a stimulus and alters (increases or decreases) the frequency of behavior that has been previously reinforced or punished by that stimulus

Positive Punishment

presentation of a stimulus contingent on a behavior that results in a decrease in the frequency or future probability of that behavior

Positive Reinforcement

presentation of a stimulus contingent on a behavior that results in an increase in the frequency or future probability of that behavior

Negative Punishment

removal of a stimulus contingent on a behavior that results in a decrease in the frequency or future probability of that behavior

Negative Reinforcement

removal of a stimulus contingent on a behavior that results in an increase in the frequency or future probability of that behavior

Chaining

teaching procedure to train a behavior chain involving a sequence of discrete responses, each associated with a particular stimulus condition

Extinction

termination of a response-reinforcer relation through the discontinuation of reinforcement for a previously reinforced behavior

Generalization

the process by which operant behavior occurs in the presence of novel antecedent stimuli that are physically similar to the original SD

Discrimination

the process by which operant behavior occurs only in the presence of the original SD

Mand

verbal operant that is controlled by a motivating operation and is reinforced by the delivery of the specified stimulus

Tact

verbal operant that is controlled by a nonverbal discriminative stimulus and is reinforced by a generalized conditioned reinforcer

Echoic

verbal operant that is controlled by a verbal discriminative stimulus that has point-to-point correspondence and formal similarity with the response and is reinforced by a generalized conditioned reinforcer

Intraverbal

verbal operant that is controlled by a verbal discriminative stimulus, does not have point-to-point correspondence and is reinforced by a generalized conditioned reinforcer
