Definition
When a specific learning history causes a place to be avoided |
|
|
Term
Conditioned place preference |
|
Definition
When a specific place is preferred as a result of learning history |
|
|
Term
Conditioned taste preference |
|
Definition
When a taste is preferred as a result of learning history |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
The ontogenetic and phylogenetic histories of an organism together with its current physiological status and the contextual events or stimuli that are present when conditioning occurs. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Activities that occur in the natural environment that are unrelated to the current contingencies of reinforcement and are characterized as irrelevant, incongruous, or out of context. |
|

Term
|
Definition
Non-functional behaviors generated by a reinforcement schedule |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Species-characteristic behavior that becomes invasive during conditioning |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Adjunctive (a.k.a. schedule-induced) behavior that occurs at the beginning or middle of an interreinforcement period of a schedule of reinforcement but are not required for reinforcement |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
A respondent conditioning procedure together with a negative punishment proceudre such that the US is delivered only if the CR does NOT occur; the CR is negatively punished by cancelling the delvery of the US when the CR occurs; a.k.a. omission procedure |
|

Term
Schedule-induced behavior |
|
Definition
Behaviors that occur within the interreinforcement period of a schedule of reinforcement but are not required for reinforcement; a.k.a. adjunctive behavior |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Differential reinforcement of successive approximations of a desired response |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Approaching a stimulus that signals a desired biologically relevant stimulus |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
An early explanation for respondent conditioning that suggested the conditioned response develops because the conditioned stimulus became a substitute for the unconditioned stimulus |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
When a distinctive taste (NS) is paired with a US that induces nausea or sickness (UR) and the distinctive taste becomes a CS that elicits nausea or sickness (CR) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Activities related to the presentation of the reinforcer that individuals engage in as the time for reinforcement gets closer |
