What is the process by which a stimulus increases the chances that a behavior will occur again?

Reinforcement is usually divided into two types: positive and negative. If a stimulus is presented immediately after a behavior and that stimulus increases the probability that the behavior will occur again, the stimulus is called a positive reinforcer.

When an event follows a response that increases the tendency of that response this is known as?

Reinforcement. a stimulus or event that follows a response and increases the likelihood that the response will be repeated. Primary Reinforcer. a stimulus, such as food or water, that is naturally rewarding and satisfying and requires no learning on the part of the subject to become pleasurable.

Stimulus. Any event that an organism can detect through its senses. Reinforcement (of operant behavior) The process by which a stimulus change that reliably follows (is contingent on) a response increases the future probability of that response. Positive Reinforcement.

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.

When a reward or other pleasant event occurs following a response in order to increase the likelihood that the behavior will re occur Which of the following is being used?

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.

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.

Is a stimulus or event that follows a response?

A	B
Reinforcement	a stimulus or event that follows a response and increases the likelihood that the response will be repeated

What are three examples of stimulus and response?

You are hungry so you eat some food.
A rabbit gets scared so it runs away.
You are cold so you put on a jacket.
A dog is hot so lies in the shade.
It starts raining so you take out an umbrella.

What is the relationship between a stimulus and a response?

A change in the environment is the stimulus; the reaction of the organism to it is the response.

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.

What increases the probability that a behavior will be repeated?

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.

When one stimulus enhances the response to another stimulus this is called?

Positive Reinforcer. stimulus that strengthens a response by presenting a positive stimulus after a response.

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 are the 4 types of reinforcement?

There are four types of reinforcement: positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement, punishment and extinction.

What is the process by which a stimulus decreases the probability of the behavior that it follows called?

Reinforcement. A process by which a stimulus or event strengthens or increases the probability of response that it follows. punishment. A stimulus or an event weakens or reduces the probability of response that it follows.

observational learning	observing and imitating others

When a stimulus increases the chances that a preceding behavior will be repeated this is known as quizlet?

Reinforcement. The process by which a stimulus increases the chances that the preceding behavior will occur again. Primary Reinforcer.

What is an event or stimulus that makes the behavior it follows more likely to occur in the future?

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 process by which a stimulus evokes a specific behavior?

reinforcement. the application or removal of a stimulus to increase the strength of a specific behavior (a stimulus or event that increases the probability that the response it follows will be repeated.

What is the process of conditioning?

conditioning, in physiology, a behavioral process whereby a response becomes more frequent or more predictable in a given environment as a result of reinforcement, with reinforcement typically being a stimulus or reward for a desired response.
