A group of stimuli having the same functional effect on a certain behavior are said to belong to a stimulus: Group. Class. Correct. Category. Contingency. IncorrectQuestion 11 0 / 0.74 pts Which of the following is not an example of stimulus control? Concept formation. Stimulus generalization. Stimulus discrimination. Incorrect. Stimulus discrimination is a demonstration of stimulus control. Stimulus delta. Question 12 0.74 / 0.74 pts A ______ ______ is only achieved through control and involves a specific change in one event (dependent variable) that can reliably be produced by specific manipulations of another event (independent variable), and the change in the dependent variable is unlikely to be the result of other extraneous factors (confounding variables). Hypothetical construct. Explanatory fiction. Functional relation. Correct. None of the above. Question 13

0.74 / 0.74 pts Faulty stimulus control is when a target behavior comes under the restricted control of an irrelevant antecedent stimulus. True. False. Correct. Question 14 0.74 / 0.74 pts When a group of stimuli all evoke the same response (for example, when one sees a picture of a Border collie, a Doberman pinscher, and a Labrador retriever, one says "That's a dog"), the group of stimuli is referred to as: A response class. A stimulus class. Correct. An arbitrary class. Both A and B. Correct. IncorrectQuestion 15 0 / 0.74 pts Which of the following is an example of an arbitrary stimulus class? The following women's restroom signs: the word woman, a pictogram of a woman, and a painting of a mermaid. A picture of a brick house, a stick built house, and a log cabin. Incorrect.

Question 16 0.74 / 0.74 pts Which of the following illustrates an example of stimulus control?

It is a habit she has. Question 17 0.74 / 0.74 pts Which of the following statements is true? If a dog has been trained to salivate when a bell rings by repeatedly pairing meat powder and a bell, this is an example of stimulus control. If an individual has been trained to say the word red when he is shown a card that says RED (but not when he has been shown a card that says GREEN), this is an example of stimulus control. Antecedent stimuli rarely acquire control over human behavior. Both A and B. Correct. Question 18 0.74 / 0.74 pts When observing and recording behavior, the observer: Can be the person engaging in the behavior. Can be a person other than the person engaging in the behavior.
