Superstitious behavior is established and maintained by a response and Non-contingentreinforcement occurring with strong contiguity.
Like reinforcement, the immediacy of the consequence increases the effectiveness. It should have close contiguity(nearness in time and space)
Contiguity(인접)
- when two or more events occur close in time and/or space.
-Contiguity in the paired stimuli
-Weaker contiguity typically results in weaker functional relations.
- Spatial Contiguity
-when two or more events occur close in space.
- Temporal Contiguity
- when two or more events occor close in time.
- the importance of relation of the response and the immediacy of the reinforcer(nearness in time)
Contingency
- involves a response's dependence on an SD and response.
- the (temporal or dependent) relationship between behavior and its controlling variables.
Operant Contingency
- most commonly referred to as the 3-term contingency and typically related to "leared" behaviors, "A-B-C", and Skinner.
-involves the relationship between the stimulus, response, and consequences.
Respondent Contingency
- referred to as classical, Pavlovian, or a simulus-stimuls contingency.
Respondent Conditioning
- most successful when the conditioned and unconditioned stimulus are both of these result in more successful conditioning.
