As a result of being paired with a loud noise, a flashing light has come to elicit a startle reflex. When the flashing light is repeatedly presented without the loud noise, the startle reflex eventually stops occurring. This process in which a conditioned stimulus is no longer able to elicit a conditioned response is referred to as: - respondent extinction - operant extinction -secondary conditioning -reverse conditioning |
respondent extinction |
|
______________ reinforcers are used during shaping because they enable rapid delivery of the reinforcer and prevent satiation from occurring. - unconditioned -tangile -conditioned -edible |
conditioned |
|
Behavioral skills training procedures will be more effective if you: -Use instructions, modeling, rehearsal, and feedback together in each training session -Begin with the most difficult skill -provide instructions and modeling separately from rehearsal and feedback -Start with rehearsal and feedback and use modeling and instructions only as necessary |
Use instructions, modeling, rehearsal, and feedback together in each training session -Begin with the most difficult skill

|
Bill drives faster than the speed limit only when his friends are in the car with him because they tell him he is cool. Bill’s behavior of driving over the speed limit only when his friends are with him is said to be under ____________ control.
-situational -operant -isolated -stimulus |
stimulus |
|
Which of the following shows the correct sequence in a three-term contingency? -discriminative stimulus, response, consequence -consequence, response, discriminative stimulus - response, consequence, discriminative stimulus -discriminative stimulus, consequence, response |
discriminative stimulus, response, consequence |
|
What happens when a discriminative stimulus is present? -it has no influence over the behavior -it makes the behavior less likely to occur -it inhibits the behavior -it makes the behavior more likely to occur |
it makes the behavior more likely to occur |
|
In behavior modification, operant conditioning involves the manipulation of ____________ and respondent conditioning involves the manipulation of ____________. -consequences ; antecedent stimuli -antecedent stimuli ; consequences -causes ; effects -effects; causes |
consequences; antecedent stimuli |
|
Which of the possible temporal relationships between the neutral stimulus and the unconditioned stimulus is least likely to be effective? -delay conditioning -backward conditioning -trace conditioning -simultaneous conditioning |
backward conditioning |
|
Which of the following strategies is used when a target behavior is not occurring at all? -differential reinforcement -respondent conditioning -punishment -shaping |
shaping |
|
When reinforcement for each approximation of the target behavior is eliminated ____________ occurs, and a ____________ behavior is then reinforced.
-an extinction burst ; novel -spontaneous recovery ; desirable -punishment ; desirable -conditioning ; prior |
an extinction burst, novel |
|
A ____________ prompt is the least intrusive and a ____________ prompt is the most intrusive. -verbal ; physical -gestural ; modeling -modeling ; physical -gestural ; verbal |
verbal; physical |
|
When a novel behavior is being taught it is best to use ____________ prompts, and when you want a person to make a correct discrimination ____________ prompts are best. -response ; stimulus -more intrusive ; less intrusive -stimulus ; response -less intrusive ; more intrusive |
response; stimulus |
|
The individual component behaviors that occur in a behavioral chain are called ____________ components. -overlapping -contingency -antecedent -stimulus-response |
stimulus response |
|
Which of the following is NOT a chaining procedure? -backward chaining -forward chaining -total task presentation -contingency chaining |
contingency chaining |
|
A teacher shows students a film demonstrating what they should do in case of a fire. Which component of behavioral skills training involves demonstrating the correct behavior for the learner?
-rehearsal -instruction -modeling -feedback |
modeling |
|
Chaining procedures involve the systematic use of ________ and________ procedures applied to each component in the chain.
|
prompting and fading |
|
An unconditioned stimulus elicits a(n) _____________. |
unconditioned response |
|
_____________ occurs when a behavior occurs in the presence of stimuli that are similar to the SD. |
generalization |
|
In the ___________________________ procedure, the learner completes every stimulus-response component of the chain in every learning trial. |
total task presentation |
|
_________ and _________ are the two behavioral principles involved in shaping. |
reinforcement and extinction |

TRUE OR FALSE: After every rehearsal, the trainer should praise some aspect of the learner’s performance.
|
true |
|
TRUE OR FALSE: A behavior is less likely to occur in the presence of the S-delta. |
