Arbitary Matching
A type of stimulus to stimulus relation in which the learner, without any other prioir training or reinforcement for doing so, selects a comparison stimulus that is the same as the sample stimulus.
Reflexivity
An untrained stimulus-stimulus relation that emerges as a product of training two other stimulus-stimulus relations.
Transitivity
A type of stimulus to stimulus relationship in which the learner, without prior training or reinforcement for doing so, demonstrates the reversibility of matched sample and comparison stimuli.
