A dimension of ABA that means that analysts work to demonstrate experimental control over the occurrence and nonoccurrence of the behavior, or functional relations.
a) applied
b) behavioral
c) generality
d) analytic
d.) analytic
A technologically consistent behavior modification method that possesses sufficient generality across subjects, settings, and/or behaviors to warrant its codification and dissemination.
a) respondent extinction
b) stimulus control
c) behavior change tactic
d) determinism
c.) behavior change tactic
A learned stimulus-response functional relation consisting of an antecedent stimulus and the response it elicits.
a) conditioned reinforcer
b) neutral reinforcer
c) unconditioned reflex
d) conditioned reflex
d.) conditioned reflex
Refers to dependent and/or temporal relations between operant behavior and its controlling variables.
a) unconditioned stimulus
b) antecedent
c) contingency
d) deprivation
c.) contingency
Exchanging the two reinforcement contingencies for two topographically different responses.
a) reinforcement contingency
b) indirect functional assessment
c) functional equivalency
d) contingency reversal
d.) contingency reversal
The state of an organism with respect to how much time has elapsed since it has consumed or contacted a particular type of reinforcer.
a) deprivation
b) punishment
c) conditioned stimulus
d) unconditioned reinforcer
a.) deprivation
Direct observation of problem behavior and the antecedent and consequent events under naturally occurring conditions.
a) indirect functional assessment
b) contingency reversal
c) descriptive functional behavior assessment
d) preference assessment
d.) descriptive functional behavior assessment
A stimulus in the presence of which responses of some type have been reinforced and in the absence of which the same type of responses have occurred and not been reinforced.
a) negative stimulus
b) contingency stimulus
c) discriminative stimulus
d) neutral stimulus
c.) discriminative stimulus
A systemic method of assessment for obtaining information about the purposes a problem behavior serves for a person.
a) functional analysis
b) functional behavior assessment
c) systematic assessment
d) conditional probability
b.) functional behavior assessment
A response that results in the same reinforcing outcome as an alternative response. The response serves the same function as the alternative response.
a) functionally equivalent
b) reinforcer equivalency
c) indirect functional assessment
d) response equivalency
a.) functionally equivalent
Behavior that is elicited, or induced, by antecedent stimuli.
a) respondent behavior
b) respondent replication
c) respondent conditioning
d) operant conditioning
a.) respondent behavior
Condition that services as a baseline in functional analysis.
a) baseline condition
b) control
c) tangible
d) demand
b.) control
Variant of the functional analysis that is conducted quickly and in the natural environment.
a) trial-based functional analysis
b) descriptive assessment
c) ABC observation
d) interview
a.) trial based functional analysis
Descriptive assessment analyzing the occurrence and non-occurrence of consequences given the occurrence and non-occurrence of behavior during an observation.
a) contingency space analysis
b) structured interviews
c) frequency data analysis
d) occurrence assessment
a.) contingency space analysis
A motivating operation that increases the effectiveness of some stimulus, object, or event as a reinforcer.
a) establishing operation
b) antecedent operation
c) contingency operation
d) reinforcing operation
a.) establishing operation
The process by which, when a conditioned stimulus is no longer paired with an unconditioned stimulus, the conditioned stimulus gradually ceases to elicit the conditioned response.
a) respondent extinction
b) extinction
c) respondent replication
d) respondent behavior
a.) respondent extinction
