Chapter Four provides our first in depth encounter with operant behavior. We shift our focus from the two-term contingency of respondent conditioning to the three-term contingency of operant conditioning. We revisit the antecedent stimulus as a discriminative stimulus but spend most of our attention on the consequent stimuli which impact the future probability of the responses that produce them. We talked about response classes and stimulus classes as well.
For your fourth CKC we will focus on the contingencies of operant behavior. To complete this challenge, provide answers to the following: (1) Compare and contrast positive and negative reinforcers. You should select one point of comparison: it should be the most important and defining point of comparison. You should select one point of contrast: it should be the most important and defining point of contrast. (2). Compare and contrast positive and negative punishers. You should select one point of comparison: it should be the most important and defining point of comparison. You should select one point of contrast: it should be the most important and defining point of contrast. (3) Compare and contrast negative reinforcers and positive punishers. You should select one point of comparison: it should be the most important and defining point of comparison. You should select one point of contrast: it should be the most important and defining point of contrast.
Your response to this challenge should be formal and at least two written pages. It should be well written and carefully organized to address each portion of the challenge. You are free to use your text and other resources but make sure you cite and reference all sources used. You should focus on paraphrasing rather than quoting from sources. Your document should be saved as a doc, docx or pdf file. It should adhere to the APA 6th edition editorial style. If you need assistance with APA editorial style take the link Writing Styles Guide on the left (toward the bottom) which will land you on the Purdue OWL site. This challenge has strict word limits – these are not minimum limits but maximum limits. Focus on being direct and concise
