Explanatory Fiction
Why does Johnny leave his seat frequently? He has ADHD (condition) How do you know he has ADHD?
Because he leaves his seat frequently (symptom)
DON’T Attribute cause of a behavior to a process or a thing (i.e., behavior is a symptom of some underlying condition)
Why does Matt hit his head
- n the

Respondent Operant
- Behavior is elicited by antecedent
stimuli
- Antecedent stimulus
- Causes the response
- Behavior is evoked by antecedent stimuli
- Antecedent stimulus changes
probability of whether response will
- ccur again
- Behavior is involuntary (i.e., reflexive)
- Eye blink
- Salivating
- Heart beating fast
- Typically involves action from
autonomic nervous system
- Association between involuntary
response and stimulus
- Behavior is voluntary
- Throwing a ball
- Singing
- Eating
- Association between voluntary
response and consequence
- A & B (2 term contingency)
- S-->R
- A, B, & C (3 term contingency)
- R-->S
- Behavior is maintained by its
consequence

- What's’ the function?
- Correct:
- Incorrect:
- Positive =
- Negative =
idiosyncratic

- Remember that all behaviors, good and bad, are performed because they are reinforced
in some way. Undesired behaviors can be eliminated by determining how the behavior is being reinforced and removing the reinforcer.
- When feasible, use differential reinforcement rather than punishment to eliminate
undesired behaviors.
- When you use punishment, make sure students know exactly why they are being
punished.
- Make sure the chosen negative consequence is indeed a punishment for the individual
in question.

GIVE something desirable TAKE AWAY something undesirable
Student completes a task sheet Take away three task sheets (reduce workload) Increases the likelihood that the student will complete a task in the future

Reinforcement vs. bribery
Reinforcement Bribery
Main difference: When delivering a reinforcer:
- You communicate ahead of time (i.e.,
BEFORE the bad behavior occurs) what behaviors will and will not access a reinforcer

The way that learned reinforcers are learned is through pairing.
