In the sun/sunglasses example, wouldn’t the bright light from the sun be the MO, and the sunglasses would be the Sd, since they signal that reinforcement (blocking of the brightness) is available, which “occasions” (...said with pinky out teacup) the behavior of putting the sunglasses on?
I am taking a behavior modification class, and your videos are linked a lot to help me understand topics. You help me understand things very well! I love all your videos, thank you so much.
Absolutely love all of his videos, his evil laugh is the best LOL. Thank you for doing this videos, is so much better to learn this terms in this format as opposed as only reading Johnston and Pennypacker.
We have to include task item defenses in our final defense so I decided on stimulus control because it was "easy"..... lets all laugh together about that lmao
So when determining whether EO or Sdelta as the antecedent control.. should I ask " Can is there a clear MO for the behavior?" If there is not, can one assume that Sdelta is the antecedent in control?
Kristin, We’re gonna put this in the queue for a Baer’s Beauty because it’s a great question. Thank you! In short remember that the s delta signals that a behavior WILL NOT receive reinforcement (in the presence of said stimulus) - so the conditional probability rule applies just as it does with an SD when determining antecedent control.
It’s way more complex than that. Both are things that happen before a behavior (in the context of a discriminated operant). However SDs are special signals that reinforcement is available... the trick is this - if Behavior can happen WITHOUT the sd present (and has) - then it’s likely controlled at least partially by an sd. If the behavior ONLY happens in the context of a certain stimulus (ever) then that stim cannot be an sd, by definition. It seems backward. But it’s not. You have to develop a discriminated operant for an sd to be in place. If not then you have a situation of MOs. There is a thorough discussion of this in Cooper - look for the part on telling the diff between MOs and SDs.
Would its be that the sun is the MO, squinting your eyes/being blinded by the sun is the A, putting on the glasses is the B, and being able to see is the C?
Good question. We’re working on videos for CMOs to be released soon. :) For this particular example we chose not to address it, so just pretend there’s no such thing for now. Lol.

I just like that he’s being so light about this when I’ve felt like I’m drowning lol
You got this! Here to help!

Thank you for the feedback!
lmao i wasnt expecting to laugh so much from educational videos, thank you for explaining this!

We love Johnson and Pennypacker - have all three editions!
Yeah I love it too!! I’m really enjoying my Single case Methods class.
Grab the Sidman text if you don’t have it already. 👍

Lol yeah...to make it a little easier check out the 7 steps to instructional control by Tram and Miller

PsychCore Thank you!
Are MO different than sd in that they do not cause responses at a lower rate?

@@PsychCore amazing. Got it clear!! Took me a nice amount of times to re watch and read your post until I finally understood it. Thanks!!

This is the only way I can get through Catania LOL whenever I have a huge headache from reading, I just go to this channel and LMAO!
Was the MO example here a CMO-T or a CMO-R? Or am I just totally wrong?
Good question. We’re working on videos for CMOs to be released soon. :)

Dope videos
Great I’m clear again. Would like to hear something about stimulus transfer control :)
Question in the cue!
This Video made me laugh, and then cry, and then cry-laugh.
That's the plan
I feel like if we ever meet, we will rap battle
I’m game. See you at abai 2020?
@@PsychCore now THAT'S reinforcing
Hahaha- it’s an empirical question!
Identify yourself and let’s get this battle rolling. 😉
I've watched this video at least 5 times! Finally got it! it is very easy and tricky indeed!
Love it!
Thanks!
You sound and look like Hiezenburg.
Our favorite principle... no doubt. 😉
