There are a total of five consequences.
Positive reinforcement
occurs when a behavior (response) is rewarding or the behavior is followed by another stimulus that is rewarding, increasing the frequency of that behavior.
When behavior is followed by a stimulus that increases that behavior the stimulus is called a?
positive reinforcement
. Occurs when a behavior a behavior is followed immediately by the presentation of a stimulus that increases the future frequency of the behavior in similar conditions.
When a behavior is followed by a consequence that increases the likelihood that the action will be repeated in the future that behavior has produced?
Reinforcer
. A behavior (operant response) is sometimes more likely to occur in the future as a result of the consequences that follow that behavior. Events that increase the likelihood of a behavior occurring in the future are called reinforcers.
What is the correct term for when a stimulus is increased or added and a behavior is strengthened?
The most effective way to teach a person or animal a new behavior is with positive reinforcement. In positive reinforcement, a desirable stimulus is added to increase a behavior. For example, you tell your five-year-old son, Jerome, that if he cleans his room, he will get a toy.
When a stimulus increases the chances that a preceding behavior will be repeated this is known as?
Reinforcement
. The process by which a stimulus increases the chances that the preceding behavior will occur again.
What is a stimulus in behavior?
Stimuli are
events in the environment that influence behavior
. A single stimulus can serve many different functions. Listed below are several functions that a stimulus can serve. … An observing response is sometimes necessary for presentation of the discriminative stimulus/stimuli.
Which type of stimulus follows behavior?
In operant conditioning,
positive reinforcement
involves the addition of a reinforcing stimulus following a behavior that makes it more likely that the behavior will occur again in the future. When a favorable outcome, event, or reward occurs after an action, that particular response or behavior will be strengthened.
Which of the following is an example of stimulus discrimination?
For example, the
smell of food
is an unconditioned stimulus, while salivating to the smell is an unconditioned response. If the dogs did not drool in response to the trumpet noise, it means that they are able to discriminate between the sound of the tone and the similar stimulus.
When a stimulus is removed in order to increase a behavior?
Negative reinforcement
occurs when a certain stimulus (usually an aversive stimulus) is removed after a particular behavior is exhibited. The likelihood of the particular behavior occurring again in the future is increased because of removing/avoiding the negative consequence.
What are examples of positive punishment?
With positive punishment, you add something unpleasant in response to a behavior. For example, a
child chews gum in class
, which is against the rules. The punishment is the teacher disciplining them in front of the class. The child stops chewing gum in glass.
How can unpleasant stimuli affect our behavior?
How can unpleasant stimuli affect our behavior? Using an unpleasant stimuli can affect behavior
by taking away bad behavior
. A person would not want to interact with a bad stimuli so they will coordinate their behavior to not have the bad stimuli.
What are aversive stimuli?
An aversive stimulus is
an unpleasant event that is intended to decrease the probability of a behavior when it is presented as a consequence
(i.e., punishment).
Is the process in operant conditioning by which a stimulus or event?
is the process in operant conditioning by which a stimulus or event following a particular behavior increases the
probability
that the behavior will be repeated. conditioning is a form of associative learning in which the consequences of a behavior change the probability of the behavior’s occurrence.
What is the response to a stimulus called?
Explanation: Automated response to a stimulus is
reflex
.
What type of stimulus elicits a response?
Unconditioned stimulus
This type of stimulus unconditionally elicits a response, also referred to as a respondent.
What type of stimulus causes an automatic response?
An unconditioned stimulus
is a stimulus that leads to an automatic response. In Pavlov’s experiment, the food was the unconditioned stimulus.
