Common bidirectional naming (C-BiN)
Both speaker behavior and listener responses are established for the same stimulus from training only either the speaker or the listener response (e.g., a client is taught to tact “dog”,… Read more
B. Concepts and Principles
Concurrent schedules of reinforcement
A compound schedule of reinforcement in which clients choose between two or more behaviors associated with different signaled (SD) schedules of reinforcement that are correlated with each behavior option.
Conditioned motivating operation (CMO)
An MO that, due to learning history, changes the value of other stimuli, objects, or events, and creates an in-the-moment change in the frequency of any behavior associated with those

Conditioned punisher
A previously neutral stimulus that now functions as a punisher because of prior pairing with one or more other punishing stimuli.
Conditioned reinforcer
A previously neutral stimulus that acquires the ability to function as a reinforcer through a stimulus-stimulus pairing with one or more unconditioned or conditioned reinforcers.
Conditioned response/reflex (CR)
An unlearned, automatic response that is elicited by a previously neutral stimulus which has been paired with an unconditioned stimulus that typically elicits the response.
Conditioned stimulus (CS)
A formally neutral stimulus that has been paired with an unconditioned stimulus and as a result can elicit a reflexive behavior.
Contingency-shaped behavior
When a behavior is learned and directly controlled by the consequences that follow it.
Controlled relation
When the model is the only controlling variable for an imitative behavior, which is necessary for the response to be considered imitation.
Convergent control
When a single verbal behavior response has multiple sources of antecedent control (e.g., and MO and a verbal SD or a nonverbal SD and a verbal SD, etc.)
Dana Do’s: Chained Versus Tandem Schedules Explained
Chained and tandem schedules are both compound schedules. They require correct responding that must also occur in a specific order for reinforcement to be delivered. But that may not be as easy as it sounds.
