Learning about the difference between rule governed behavior and contingency shaped behavior can be confusing (Answer is true)

True

Abative

Mary, an FIU student, spends the whole day at the subway inside GC eating meatball foot-long subs with extra cheese and marinara sauce while she is studying for her final exams. In total Mary ends up eating 5-foot long subs during a 6 hour duration. Mary finishes her studying and goes home where she immediately lies down on the couch. Manny, her boyfriend, returns home and immediately orders a pizza with extra marinara sauce and cheese. When the pizza gets there, Manny asks Mary if she is interested in having a slice of pizza. She immediately turns her head away in disgust and says "No". Mary tells Manny that if she wants some pizza later on she will get up and get some. The rest of the night passes and Mary does not get up to get a slice of pizza and instead goes to sleep. Mary turning her head away in disgust represents what effect on the value of the pizza as a reinforcer:

Abolishing

In the past, tantrumming has positively reinforced Johnathan's behavior with attention and getting what he wants. Because of his history of conditioning, whenever things do not go his way, he throws a fit. Jonathan's parents are tired of this behavior and are successful at reducing the frequency of this behavior by taking away his privilege of watching TV and ignoring him completely when he screams and cries. However, at school, Johnathan's teacher still allows Johnathan to get his way when he tantrums because it is highly disruptive to the rest of the class and this behavior increases. This is an example of _______________.

Behavioral contrast

A motivating operation alters ____________:

Both A and B The effectiveness of some stimuli, object, or event. The current frequency of all behavior that has been reinforced by that stimulus, object, or event

The matching law is used to:

Delayed Imitation

Trent constantly rubs his hands together and does this 45 times within 30 minutes. He has blisters on his hands from frequent irritation. Trent also loves physical touch by others and touch is considered a reinforcer for him. A behavior analyst wants to decrease the maladaptive behavior of rubbing his hands together and put any reinforcement for this behavior on extinction. The behavior analyst gives Trent a high five or a pat on the back for every behavior that is not the targeted behavior and does not provide reinforcement to Trent when he rubs his hands together. Eventually, Trent only rubs his hands together 10 times in 30 minutes and has shown great improvement. What technique is the behavior analyst using in reducing Trent's maladaptive behavior?

Diana, a 10 year old girl diagnosed with autistic disorder, frequently displays inappropriate behavior by getting out of her seat when asked to sit down. During sessions, a behavior analyst uses an FI 10 schedule to provide reinforcement. After every 10 minutes of sitting appropriately in a chair, the analyst gives Diana a token.

A difference between rule-governed and contingency-shaped is one of knowledge. To understand the rules, we must be taught the rules and commit them to memory and then learn when to apply them.

True

Level systems can be found in video games
