Answer 7

Count ability is what you count

Question 8

fundamental property -Temporal Locus

Answer 8

Behavior occurs at a specific point in time

Temporal locus and latency

Question 9

Difference between behavior and response?

Answer 9

Behavior is more then one response

Question 10

Stimulus class

Answer 10

A group of STIMULI that share a common element

NOT BEHAVIORS

Question 11

Function

Answer 11

The purpose of the behavior, antecedent and consequences

Ex different behaviors same environment

Question 12

Response class

Answer 12

Different ways to group behaviors together

Question 13

The learned Functional Relation

Answer 13

Conditioned

Question 14

Reinforcement

Answer 14

It’s a process that increases the future frequency of the behavior.

Ex. Increase when reached a certain level to maintain still will need reinforcement

Question 15

Stimulus

Answer 15

Stimulating your senses

• energy change through receptor, it can just be about anything
• it effects a person through their senses

Question 16

Topographic Response class

Answer 16

A group of responses that are grouped b/c they all look the same.
ex. I sit down, I get a can of soda, I sit down, I get smacked, sit own regardless of what happens afterwards.

Question 17

Frequency

Answer 17

A count of the # of times a behavior occurs

Question 18

Response

Answer 18

A single instance of behavior and solely under the control of the ANTECEDENT (S-S Food elicits response)
Ex clapping, waving, sitting down

Question 19

Behavior

Answer 19

Everything an organism does

Question 20

Functional response class

Answer 20

A group of responses that are grouped b/c they all have the same consequence. It does NOT matter what the responses LOOKs like, what has to be the same is what happens AFTER the response.
Ex I waved my drink ticker to waiter I get water, I sign, sing, asking WHAT happens is the same (environmental effect is the same)

Question 21

Topography vs function

Answer 21

Topographical response all the same responses

Functional Response are different response to get the same result

Question 22

Is IRT a dimensional Quantity

Answer 22

yes

Question 23

fundamental property -Repeatability

Answer 23

Behavior occurs more than once

-goes with countability

Question 24

Difference between Frequency and Rate

Answer 24

Frequency is the count | Rate is the count PLUS time

Question 25

How can you tell if it is rate or duration?

Answer 25

Rate is the count plus time | Duration occurs over a period of time

Question 26

Dimensional Quantity

Answer 26

MEASUREMENT

Question 27

Dimensional quantity=Latency

Answer 27

Time before you begin to engage in the behavior | ex. measuring how long it take you to pick an answer

Question 28

Dimensional quantity-IRT

Answer 28

Inter Response time -Time between two responses (time that passes between you engaging in response #1 until you begin to engage in response #2

Question 29

Dimensional quantity-Rate

Answer 29

Count with a period of time

Question 30

If I had two different responses, same effect on environment would be Functional or Topography

Answer 30

Functional

Question 31

What is the difference between Behavior and Response?

Answer 31

BEHAVIOr is more then one response

Question 32

Dimensional quantity-Temporal Extent

Answer 32

Behavior take up or EXTENDS for a certain period of time | -goes with Duration

Question 33

Which dimensional quantity is associated with repeatability?

Answer 33

Countabilty-it's what you count

Question 34

Which dimensional quantity is associated with repeatability ? Duration, frequency or countability

Answer 34

countability

Question 35

S-S

Answer 35

Stimulus-Stimulus=Pairing one stimulus then another ex. meat powder and clicker

Question 36

Function

Answer 36

Effect of the response on the environment, the condition in which the behavior occurs

Question 37

BEHAVIOR=You can not say he engaged in many joke telling behaviors because?

Answer 37

It is a collective term, and should not be used in plural form (besides Jose says so)

Question 38

If I had 2 response that looked exactly a like, but different effects on the would it be Functional or Topographical

Answer 38

Topographical

Question 39

Functional Relation

Answer 39

a purposeful relationship between behavior and the environment ex. If I engage in he Bx, this will happen

Question 40

Behavior is determined by

Answer 40

biological and environmental variables

Question 41

fundamental property

Answer 41

is something an event has, whether you measure it or not.

Question 42

dimensional quantity

Answer 42

Rrefers to the measurement we make of that fundamdental property USING ARBITRARY UNITS! We make up the meaning of a "second" or a "minute" by agreeing to a measurement guideline.

Question 43

How does Latency occur (Stimulus to start of response)?

Answer 43

only one response is necessary. Therefore latency, as a measureable quantity (aka "dimensional quantity") is based solely on the single fundamental property of a response known as "temporal locus" and also know as a single point in time when a response begins.

Question 44

Duration, as a measureable quantity (AKA "dimensional quantity") requires

Answer 44

only one fundamental property as well: temporal extent, or that a response takes up a certain amount of time to occur.

Question 45

IRT requires at least how many responses?

Answer 45

TWO responses to exist. How can there be a "time between responses" if there is only 1 response? Therefore as a dimensional quantity (measureable quantity) IRT requires two fundamental properties of a response: temporal locus (a point in time when a behavior either begins or ends) and Repeatability (the fact that the response happens again).

Question 46

Whats the difference between fundamental property and dimensional quantity?

Answer 46

fundamental property is something an event has, whether you measure it or not. A "dimensional quantity" refers to the measurement we make of that fundamdental property USING ARBITRARY UNITS! We make up the meaning of a "second" or a "minute" by agreeing to a measurement guideline. We are so used to this we take it for granted.

Question 47

Dimensional Quantities of Bx-Celeration

Answer 47

change in rate over time | ex. you used to hit your head 10x per minute now you hit your head 1x per minute

Question 48

Dimensional Quantities of Bx-Duration

Answer 48

The amount of time a response occurs

Question 49

Celebration

Answer 49

Change in rate over time - increase or decrease in responding - change in # of responses

Question 50

Environment

Answer 50

Everything outside the skin of an organism | -everything that could effect you Bx
