PTB founder Dana Meller clarifies confusion to explain derived stimulus relation vs. stimulus equivalence.
Dana Do’s: Clarifying Confusion Between Derived Stimulus Relation and Stimulus Equivalence Read More
Relating, framing and equating. PTB co-founder Dana Meller drills into the generalizability of relational frame theory, equivalence-based instruction, and stimulus equivalence. Would you believe they all go together?
Refer to BCBA® Task List (5th ed.) Sections B-15: Define and provide examples of derived stimulus relations; G-21: Use procedures to promote stimulus and response generalization; G-12: Use equivalence-based instruction.

A product of equivalence-based instruction (EBI), wherein responding is defined by forming a relation between two or more stimuli that is not directly trained and not based on the physical

G.19 Design and evaluate procedures to promote emergent relations and generative performance.
A collection of stimuli identified through stimulus equivalence to evoke the same response.

G.19 Design and evaluate procedures to promote emergent relations and generative performance.
An instructional method based on stimulus equivalence. It maximizes the effectiveness of teaching because a client is directly taught certain targets in such a way that they are able to

G.19 Design and evaluate procedures to promote emergent relations and generative performance.
A matching-to-sample procedure where clients are taught to match sample and comparison stimuli that are physically identical.
A conditional discrimination procedure in which a stimulus is presented and taught to match a secondary stimulus. Reinforcement is delivered for correctly matching the two antecedent stimuli. Matches can include

G.19 Design and evaluate procedures to promote emergent relations and generative performance.
A matching-to-sample procedure where clients are taught to match sample and comparison stimuli that are not similar to the sample stimulus (i.e., opposites).
Refers to the trained response of matching a stimulus to an identical stimulus and then matching the two stimuli in reverse without additional training. (i.e., If A=A, then A=A)
G-12 Use equivalence-based instruction.
G.19 Design and evaluate procedures to promote emergent relations and generative performance.
A behavior analytic approach to language which aims to connect and understand the relationship between language and derived stimulus relations. The theory hypothesizes that learned behavior is acquired through a

G.19 Design and evaluate procedures to promote emergent relations and generative performance.
Defined as the untrained acquisition of a reflexive, symmetric, and transitive relation between stimuli that are in some way related.

G.19 Design and evaluate procedures to promote emergent relations and generative performance.
A matching-to-sample procedure where clients are taught to match sample and comparison stimuli that are symbolically related, and not physically identical.
