Extinction

1 / 32

Tags and Description

33 Terms

1

Extinction

________: nonreinforcement of a previously reinforced response, the result of which is a decrease in the strength of the response.

New cards
2

Resurgence

________: reappearance during extinction of other behaviors that had once been effective in obtaining reinforcement.

New cards
3

Procedure

________: nonreinforcement of a previously reinforced response.

New cards
4

Resistance

________ to extinction: responding persists after an extinction procedure has been implemented.

New cards
5

Spontaneous recovery

________: reappearance of an extinguished response following a rest period after extinction.

New cards
6

Discrimination training

________: involves reinforcement of responding in the presence of one stimulus and not another stimulus.

New cards
7

Generalization gradient

________: graphic description of the strength of responding in the presence of stimuli that are similar to the sd and that vary along a continuum.

New cards
8

Degree of deprivation

________: greater the level of deprivation, the greater the resistance to extinction.

New cards
9

Stimulus control

________: presence of a discriminative stimulus reliably affects the probability of the behavior.

New cards
10

History of reinforcement

________: the more reinforcers an individual has received for a behavior, the greater the resistance to extinction.

New cards
11

Extinction burst

________: temporary increase in frequency and intensity of responding when extinction is first implemented.

New cards
12

extinction

nonreinforcement of a previously reinforced response, the result of which is a decrease in the strength of the response

New cards
13

procedure

nonreinforcement of a previously reinforced response

New cards
14

process

resultant decrease in response strength

New cards
15

extinction burst

temporary increase in frequency and intensity of responding when extinction is first implemented

New cards
16

emotional behavior

frustration

New cards
17

resurgence

reappearance during extinction of other behaviors that had once been effective in obtaining reinforcement

New cards
18

resistance to extinction

responding persists after an extinction procedure has been implemented

New cards
19

history of reinforcement

the more reinforcers an individual has received for a behavior, the greater the resistance to extinction

New cards
20

magnitude of reinforcer

large-magnitude reinforcers result in greater resistance to extinction than small-magnitude reinforcers

New cards
21

degree of deprivation

greater the level of deprivation, the greater the resistance to extinction

New cards
22

previous experience with extinction

when sessions of extinction are alternated with sessions of reinforcement, the greater the number of prior exposures to extinction, the quicker the behavior will extinguish during subsequent exposures

New cards
23

distinctive signal for extinction

extinction is greatly facilitated when there is a distinctive stimulus that signals the onset of extinction

New cards
24

spontaneous recovery

reappearance of an extinguished response following a rest period after extinction

New cards
25

differential reinforcement of other behavior

extinguishing the target behavior and reinforcement the occurrence of a replacement behavior

New cards
26

New cards
27

stimulus control

presence of a discriminative stimulus reliably affects the probability of the behavior

New cards
28

stimulus generalization

tendency for an operant response to be emitted in the presence of a stimulus that is similar to the responding stimulus

New cards
29

generalization gradient

graphic description of the strength of responding in the presence of stimuli that are similar to the sd and that vary along a continuum

New cards
30

stimulus discrimination

tendency for an operant response to be emitted more in the presence of one stimulus than another

New cards
31

discrimination training

involves reinforcement of responding in the presence of one stimulus and not another stimulus

New cards
32

discriminative stimulus for extinction

stimulus that signals the absence of reinforcement

New cards
33

peak shift effect

peak of a generalization gradient following discrimination training will shift from the sd to a stimulus that is further removed from the striangle
