Stimulus Control

Responding differentially to an SD and an S delta is called

• Generalization

• Discrimination

• Peak shift

• Contrast

This schedule is used to study stimulus control

• VI

• Concurrent

• Multiple

• FI

Two or more simple schedules presented sequentially, each one with a corresponding SD

• Multiple schedule

• Concurrent schedule

• Random Schedule

• Time schedule

Which of these is a multiple schedule

• VI 5m - EXT 2 min

• VI 30s - VI 30s

• FR3- VI 5min

• All of these

In a mult schedule components should be presented in this order (select the 2 correct options)

• Alternating

• Alternating semi-randomly

• Components can alternate if each one is maintained for a period of time

• alternating but without an SD

A discrimination index is used to compare:

• Rates of responding in the presence of an SD, to overall rates of responding during SD and S delta

• Rates of responding in the presence of an SD, to rates of responding in the presence of the S delta

• Rates of responding in the presence of an SD to rates of responding to the same SD during extinction

• Rates of responding in the presence of an SD during baseline and intervention

A discrimination index is a value between 0 and 1. Values around 0.8 indicate

• High rates of responding to the SD only

• High rates of responding to SD and S delta

• High rates of responding in all conditions

• High rates of responding to the S delta

A behavioral principle that demonstrates the relative value of reinforcement effects is

• A multiple schedule

• Discrimination

• Errorless discrimination

• Behavioral Contrast

Increasing the reinforcement rate in one component of a mult schedule produces this effect on the unchanged component

• No change

• Decreased responding

• Decreased reinforcement

• Increased responding

Decreasing reinforcement in one component of a mult schedule, increases responding in the unchanged component. This is:

• Peak shift

• Generalization

• Positive contrast

• Negative contrast
