AB541: Concepts & Principles II Study Guide (15 points) Unit 13: Rules & Stimulus Equivalence Student: Crishtine Sundar Fill out each question of the study guide using readings, powerpoints, and textbooks. 1. Define rules. (0.5 pt) Rules are able to alter the behavioral function of other stimuli. 2. What is another term for a rule? (0.5 pt) Rules have also been called rule governed behaviors, CSS, instructions, directions, relational autoclitics and SD’s. 3. Rules are a type of discriminative stimulus. (0.5 pt – circle/highlight answer) a. TRUE or FALSE 4. What is necessary to be considered a CSS? (2 pts) In order to be considered as a CSS it needs to alter not only the function of the SD’s but also the Eo’s. It needs to have some sort of verbal stimuli in order to be a CSS. It also needs to describe two components of a contimgency such as behavior and consequence, behavior and antecedent stimuli, and two or more stimuli, behavior or consequence. 5. How are CSSs and SDs different? (1.5 pts) CSS alters stimuli functions whilst SD’s evoke behaviors. SD’s don’t have the function aletring effect that CSS does. With SD there is a whole history of reinfrocment present. 6. What are the three types of rule-following behavior according to Hayes et. al? State and define (in your own words) (3 pts) a. Pliance are simple rules which are under the control of social or socially mediated conseqeunces.You follow the rules in order to please someone or group of people. Thus favors

are obtained and punishers are avoided. It allows for behavior to be controlled by long term consequences. b. Tracking are rules that track the consequence of actions. This rule focuses more on direct contingencies and context. There is a direct contact between the rule and behavior. The rule is naturally followed by reinforcers. There is a certain adaptataion to the environment rather than social pleasing as with pliance. c. Augmenting are complex rules under the control of apperant changes in the ability of events to function as reinforcers or punishers. However it doesn’t state the consequences and are instead verbal incentives or more commonly what we can state as motivation. Argumenting is formulative, thus new consequences are established as a result. It allows for more rule following behaviors due to the flexibility of contacting with new consequences. 7. What is stimulus equivalence? (1 pt) Stimulus equivalence is when a learner picks up other relations between stimuli that were not explicitly taught to them. This occurs after they are taught some simple relations between stimuli and they then make those associations between other stimuli themselves. These are untrained and non reinfocered stimulus- stimulus relations 8. Name & define the three tests of stimulus equivalence. (3 pts) a. Reflexivity is when a learner is able to select a stimulus that matches to itself without any training or reinforcement being provided. This would be like matching A=A. b. Symmetry is concept of reversibility and comparison of a relation. Teaching a learner that A= B and then the learner gets that the untrained relation of A=B is that B=A independently. c. Transivity is the learner independently understanding an untrained relation with three untrained stimulus sequences. Like teaching them that A=B and B=C the learner now knows without training that A=C and C=A. 9. Draw the diagram of stimulus equivalence: ( 3 pts) Trained -
