A physical energy change capable of affecting an organisms sensory receptors that has a specific form or patterns which as a unit has controlling effectiveness and is the result of verbal behavior
Verbal Stimulus
Behavior reinforced through the meditation of another person who has been specifically trained to provide such reinforcement
Verbal Behavior
A form of verbal behavior in which the response is writing, the controlling variable is a response- product of someone’s prior vocal behavior, and there is point-to-point correspondence between the stimulus and response
Taking Dictation
A form of verbal behavior in which the response is vocal and controlled by a prior or auditory stimulus, there is point-to-point correspondence between the stimulus and the response, and there is formal similarity between the simulus and response-product
Echoic Behavior
A motivating operation whose value - altering effect depends on learning history
Conditioned motivating operation
Motivating operation that increases the effectiveness of some stimulus, object, or event as a reinforcer
Establishing operation
A verbal response in which the form of the response is controlled by an establishing operation
Mand
A motivating operation whose value - altering effect does not depend on learning history
Unconditioned motivating operation
A relation in one direction between two stimuli (e.g., A to B) entails a relation in the other direction (e.g., B to A)
Mutual entailment
A form of verbal behavior in which the response is writing or printing, the controlling variable is a response-product of previous writing behavior, and there is point-to-point correspondence between the controlling variable and the response, and there is formal similarity between the controlling variable and the response-product
Copying a text
A verbal response in which the controlling variable is a non verbal stimulus
Tact
A stimulus that acquires its MO effectiveness by being paired with another MO that has the same value-altering and behavior-altering effects as the MO with which it was paired
Surrogate conditioned motivating operation (CMO-S)
A verbal response in which the controlling variable is a verbal stimulus, and there is NO point-to-point correspondence between the stimulus and response
Intraverbal
A form of verbal behavior in which the response is vocal, the response is controlled by a prior stimulus that is the response-product of writing behavior, and there is point-to-point correspondence between the stimulus and response
Textual Behavior
Trained: A>B and B>C
Derived: A>C and C<A
Combinatorial Entailment
A generalized pattern of relational responding that is arbitrarily applicable and has the properties of mutual entailment, combinatorial entailment, and transformation of stimulus function
Relational Frame
A stimulus change that occurs after a response has been admitted, increases the future probability of that response, and results from the action of another individual
Mediated reinforcement
The occurrence of a previously punished type of response without its punishing consequence. This procedure is analogous to the extinction of previously reinforced behavior and has the effect of undoing the effect of punishment
Recovery from punishment procedure
A type of controlling variable that is usually a listener in the presence of whom verbal behavior is typically reinforced and that controls a group of response forms
Audience
Two or more stimulus relations can mutually combine
Combinatorial entailment
Trained: A>B
Derived: B<A
Mutual Entailment
The functions a stimulus has for a person can be changed on the basis of how it is related to other stimuli
Transformation of Stimulus Functions
An environmental variable that a) Alters the reinforcing or punishing effectiveness of some stimulus, object or event; and b) alters the current frequency of all behavior that has been reinforced or punished by that stimulus, object, or event
Motivating operation
A relatively permanent change in an organism’s repertoire of MO, stimulus, and response relations, cause by reinforcement, punishment, an extinction procedure, or a recovery from punishment procedure
Function - altering effect
