3. Unit 3 Review Positive reinforcement (______) Positive reinforcement (______) A response is followed closely in time by a stimulus change that results in an increased frequency of similar response in the future. A response is followed closely in time by a stimulus change that results in an increased frequency of similar response in the future. Motivation operations Motivation operations _______ _______ Negative reinforcement (______) Negative reinforcement (______) Termination, reduction, or postponement of a stimulus contingent 0n the occurrence of a response which leads to the future occurrence of that response. Termination, reduction, or postponement of a stimulus contingent 0n the occurrence of a response which leads to the future occurrence of that response. _______ _______ Punishment Punishment When a response is followed immediately by a stimulus change that decreases the future frequency of similar responses. When a response is followed immediately by a stimulus change that decreases the future frequency of similar responses. _______ _______

4. Schedules of Reinforcement A schedule of reinforcement is a ______ that described the ______ of reinforcement. A schedule of reinforcement is a ______ that described the ______ of reinforcement. Continuous reinforcement (CRF) Continuous reinforcement (CRF) Intermittent reinforcement (INT) Intermittent reinforcement (INT) Ratio schedules ________________________ Ratio schedules ________________________ Fixed ratio (FR) Fixed ratio (FR) Variable ratio (VR) Variable ratio (VR) Interval schedules ______________________ Interval schedules ______________________ Fixed interval (FI) Fixed interval (FI) Variable interval (VI) Variable interval (VI)

5. Schedules of Reinforcement Thinning of Intermittent Reinforcement Thinning of Intermittent Reinforcement Done by gradually _______ the response ratio or by gradually _______ the duration of the interval. Done by gradually _______ the response ratio or by gradually _______ the duration of the interval.

6. Stimulus Control Stimulus control occurs when a rate, latency, duration or amplitude of a response is altered in the presence of an antecedent stimulus. Stimulus control occurs when a rate, latency, duration or amplitude of a response is altered in the presence of an antecedent stimulus.

8. Extinction Extinction occurs when reinforcement of previously reinforced behavior is discontinued and as a result the frequency of the behavior decreases. Extinction occurs when reinforcement of previously reinforced behavior is discontinued and as a result the frequency of the behavior decreases. Extinction procedures Extinction procedures R+ R+ R- R- Extinction effects Extinction effects Using extinction effectively Using extinction effectively
