Analysis of Behavior CH.5 -- Quiz 1,2,3

A child cries when her mother is brushing the child's teeth, and her mother stops brushing. As a result, the child is more likely to cry when she gets her teeth brushed. Does this example illustrate positive or negative reinforcement for crying?

Negative

During extinction of a negatively reinforced behavior, the *blank* is no longer removed after the behavior.

aversive stimulus

What type of reinforcement schedule before extinction results in the most rapid decrease in the behavior during extinction?

Continuous reinforcement (C.R.F.)

A child cries in the store and the parent gives the child candy. As a result, the child is more likely to cry in the store. What is the reinforcer for crying in this case?

Getting candy

Besides a temporary increase in the behavior, what are two other things that might happen during an extinction burst? *Blank* and *Blank*

Novel behavior may occur Emotional responses or aggressive behavior may occur

What are two types of behaviors that might occur during an extinction burst?

Novel behaviors and aggressive behaviors

Ms. Jones pushed the button on her garage door opener each time she drives in the driveway, and the door opens. Is this an example of positive or negative reinforcement?

Positive

During extinction, what happens immediately after the occurrence of the behavior?

The behavior is no longer reinforced

When does extinction involve ignoring the behavior?

When attention is the reinforcer for the behavior

Ms. Jones pushed the button on her garage door opener each time she drives in the driveway, and the door opens. Describe extinction of the behavior of pushing the button on the garage door opener.

When she pushes the button, the door no longer opens.

A child cries in the store and the parent gives the child candy. As a result, the child is more likely to cry in the store. How would the parent use extinction for crying in this case?

When the child cries in the store, no longer give candy to the child

A child cries when her mother is brushing the child's teeth, and her mother stops brushing. As a result, the child is more likely to cry when she gets her teeth brushed. How would the child's mother use extinction for crying in this case?

When the child cries, don't stop brushing her teeth

During extinction, a previously reinforced behavior is no longer followed by a reinforcer and the behavior *blank* in the future.

decreases

The temporary increase in a behavior during extinction is called a(n).....

extinction burst

During extinction burst, the behavior may temporarily increase in *blank*, *blank*, or *blank*

frequency, duration, or intensity

During an extinction burst, a behavior *blank* in frequency, duration, or intensity.

increases

During spontaneous recovery, what happens to a behavior that had stopped occurring as a result of extinction?

it occurs again

The behavior will decrease *blank* quickly during extinction after continuous reinforcement than intermittent reinforcement.

more

The behavior will decrease *blank* quickly during extinction after intermittent reinforcement than continuous reinforcement.

more

During extinction of a *blank* reinforced behavior, an aversive stimulus is no longer removed after the behavior.

negatively

During extinction of a positively reinforced behavior, the positive reinforcer is *blank* following the behavior.

no longer delivered

During extinction, a previously reinforced behavior *blank* and the behavior stops occurring in the future.

no longer reinforced

During extinction of a negatively reinforced behavior, the aversive stimulus is *blank* following the behavior.

no longer removed

During an extinction burst, the behavior might temporarily increase. In addition, *blank* behaviors or *blank* behaviors might occur.

novel or emotional

During extinction of a *blank* reinforced behavior, a reinforcer is no longer delivered after the behavior.

positively

Two factors that influence extinction are the schedule of reinforcement before extinction and *blank* after extinction.

reinforcement

During extinction of positively reinforced behavior, the *blank* is no longer delivered after the behavior.

reinforcer

Two factors that influence extinction are the *blank* before extinction and the occurrence of reinforcement after extinction.

schedule of reinforcement

During *blank* a previously extinguished behavior occurs again in the future.

spontaneous recovery

When a behavior occurs again in the future even though it had stopped occurring after extinction, the process is called.....

spontaneous recovery
