Term

Definition

Definition
| A form of positive punishment in which the actor is removed from a reinforcing situation for a brief period after the problem behaviour occurs. |

|
Term
|
Definition
| Form of positive punishment in which every time an undesired behaviour occurs the actor loses a reinforcer. |
|

Term
|
Definition

|
|
Term
|
Definition
| A form of Punishment in which immediately afterwords there is the removal of a reinforcing stimulus and as a result the behaviour is less likely to occur in the future |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| A form of Punishment in which immediately afterwords there is the presentation of an aversive stimulus and as a result the behaviour is less likely to occur in the future |
|
|
Term
| Punisher/Aversive Stimulus |
|
Definition
| A consequence which makes a particular behaviour less likely to occur in the future |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Immediately following a behaviour a consequence occurs which, as a result, the behaviour is less likely to occur in the future |
|
|
Term
|
Definition

|
|
Term
| Immediacy, Contingency, Establishing Operations, Individual Differences, Magnitude |
|
Definition
| Factors that influence the effectiveness of punishment/reinforcement |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| An event or a condition that makes a consequence more or less effective as a punisher/reinforcer |
|
|
Term
| Negative reinforcement of a punisher |
|
Definition
| An ethical concern with punishment, that if the undesired behaviour is aversive to the punisher it is likely to be abused by him/her |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| When: A behaviour has been previously reinforced, it no longer results in reinforcing consequence, and therefore the behaviour stops occuring in the future |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Increases in frequency, duration, or intensity of hte unreinforced behavour during extinction |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| When intermittent reinforcement is used before extinction occurs |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| When a behaviour occurs again even after it has not occurred for some time after extinction |
|
|
Term
1. Collect data to asess treatment effects 2. Identify the reinforcer for the problem behaviour through Functional Assesment 3. Eliminate the reinforcer after each instance of the problem behaviour. 4.Consider the schedule of reinforcement of reinforcement for the problem behaviour 5. Reinforce alternative behaviours 6. Promote generalization and maintenance |
|
Definition
| Steps in using Extinction |
|
|
Term
1.Have you IDed the reinforcer? 2. Can you eliminate the reinforcer? 3. Is extinction safe to use? 4. Can an extinction burst be tolerated? 5. Can consistency be maintained |
|
Definition
| Factors to consider before using Extinction. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Stimulus events that precede an operant response |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| When there is an increased probability that a behaviour will occur in the presence of a specific antecedent stimulus or when a stimulus from a specific class is present |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| During stimulus control, the antecedent stimulus that is present when a behaviour is reinforced |
|
|
Term
| Stimulus Discrimination Training |
|
Definition
| When a discriminative stimulus is present the behaviour is reinforced, when any other antecedent stimulus is present the behaviour is not reinforced |
|
|
Term
| Stimulus Discrimination Training |
|
Definition
| When a discriminative stimulus is present the behaviour is reinforced, when any other antecedent stimulus is present the behaviour is not reinforced |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Any antecedent that is present during stimulus discrimination training, when the behaviour is not reinforced |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| In stimulus discrimination training, when the consequence is contingent on the occurrence of the behaviour only in the presence of the specific antecedent stimulus |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The occurence of a normally stimulus controlled behaviour in the presence of an antecedent that is somehow similar to the Discriminative Stimulus |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The correlation between; the similarity of the delta stimulus and the discriminitave stimulus, and the likelihood that the Response will occur |

Term
|
Definition
| Antecedent stimuli that share similar features and have the same functional effect on a particular behaviour |
|
|
Term
| Application of aversive activities |
|
Definition
| A form of positive punishment that involves, as a consequence of an undesired behaviour, the forced action of unwanted activities |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| When a high probability behaviour is paired with a low probability behaviour the high probability behaviour is less likely to occur |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| When the actor is forced, as a form of punishment, to engage in an effortful behaviour for an extended period contingent on each instance of the problem behaviour |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| A form of overcorrection in which, the actor has to engage in an appropriate or correct form of the problem behaviour many times over |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| When the actor has to correct his/her actions and restore the environment to a condition which was better than that before the undesired behaviour |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| When, after a request is made (and either ignored or the desired action is not carried out) the actor is physically brought to do the action until he/she does it willingly. A form of positive punishment and negative reinforcement. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| A form of punishment in which the actor is bound and unable to move for a set period of time by a second person (caregiver, etc) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| When the actor is physically restrained from completing an action that is undesired. (Hands held so that a child cannot suck their thumb) |

|
Term

|
Definition
| A positive punishment situation in which an unwanted stimulus is presented after the unwanted behaviour |

Definition
| The reinforcing of a behaviour alternate to that of the undesired one |
