B.12 - B.13 Identify examples of stimulus control and stimulus discrimination PT3 Stimulus control

behavior is under stimulus control when A) it occurs in increasingly diverse topographies when particular stimulus conditions are in effect B) its occurrence predictably changes in response to the presentation and withdrawal of a particular stimulus C) it becomes more likely to occur in the presence of a widening range of antecedent stimuli

its occurrence predictably changes in response to the presentation and withdrawal of a particular stimulus

"tightening" or "narrowing" stimulus control involves differentially reinforcing A) a particular behavior when it occurs under novel stimulus conditions B) new forms of a response when certain stimulus conditions are in effect C) responses to a more restricted set of stimuli or stimulus properties

responses to a more restricted set of stimuli or stimulus properties

establishing precise stimulus control usually involves A) reinforcing responses to stimuli that have any features similar to those that should control responding in the target setting B) withholding reinforcement for responses to stimuli that do not have every critical feature that should control responding C) withholding reinforcement for responses to stimuli that have extraneous features as well as all the defining features D) all of the above

withholding reinforcement for responses to stimuli that do not have every critical feature that should control responding

which of the following is most likely to establish stimulus control A) swearing is always punished even by the cool teachers B) laughing out loud is reinforced on the playground as well as in the class C) Mr. Sat gives out gum to students but Mr. Mit gives detention to students chewing gum D) all of the above

Mr. Sat gives out gum to students but Mr. Mit gives detention to students chewing gum

discriminative stimuli evoke behavior as a result of A) generalized conditioned reinforcers B) the salience of discriminative stimuli compared to other stimuli in the environment C) a learners history of reinforcement in the presence of those stimuli D) all of the above

a learners history of reinforcement in the presence of those stimuli

stimulus control is evident when A) a learner knows the difference between SD and S-delta B) a particular behavior is more likely to occur when SD's are present and when S-DELATS are not present C) a person understands the behavioral expectations associated with particular stimulus conditions

a particular behavior is more likely to occur when SD's are present and when S-DELATS are not present

stimulus control is evident when A) a learner knows what to do in a particular situation B) a learner understands the difference between SD and S-deltas C) a particular behavior occurs in the presence, but not in the absence of a particular stimulus or stimulus property D) all of the above

a particular behavior occurs in the presence, but not in the absence of a particular stimulus or stimulus property

Discriminative stimuli evoke behavior as a result of A) consequences associated with those stimuli B) a learners history of reinforcement in the presence of those stimuli C) differential reinforcement D) all of the above

all of the above

establishing precise stimulus control usually involves A) reinforcing responses to the critical features of stimuli that should evoke responding in the target setting B) withholding reinforcement for responses to the non-critical properties of a targeted stimulus C) withholding reinforcement for responses to stimuli that lack the critical features hat should evoke responding D) all of the above

all of the above

which of the following is most likely to establish stimulus control A) talking is ignored when the teacher is at their desk but reprimanded when they are at the chalkboard B) requests to play outside are honored when the weather is warm and denied when it is cold/raining C) Mr. Sat gives out gum to students, but Mr. Mel gives detention to students chewing gum D) all of the above

all of the above

discriminative stimuli evoke behavior as a result of A) the salience of discriminative stimuli compared other stimuli in the environment B) differential reinforcement C) generalized condition reinforcers D) all of the above

differential reinforcement

establishing precise stimulus control usually involves reinforcing responses to A) increasingly fewer properties of a stimulus B) controlling stimuli in increasingly fewer settings C) extraneous stimuli in increasingly more settings

increasingly fewer properties of a stimulus
