STIMULUS CONTROL
We all encounter behavioral contingencies on a daily basis in both our personal and professional lives. FOR EXAMPLE, RECEIVING A PAYCHECK IS CONTINGENT ON BEING PRESENT AT A JOB. USING THE MOTIVATING OPERATION AND DISCRIMINATIVE STIMULUS WORKSHEET [DOCX], IDENTIFY THE ANTECEDENTS, TARGET BEHAVIOR, AND CONSEQUENCES IN FOUR REAL-LIFE SCENARIOS. TWO SCENARIOS ARE PROVIDED FOR YOU AND YOU WILL PROVIDE THE FINAL TWO SCENARIOS FROM YOUR OWN EXPERIENCES.
For the first two scenarios, identify which type of stimulus is being exhibited (motivating operation or discriminative stimulus).
For the last two scenarios, provide your own example of a motivating operation and a discriminative stimulus.
