Abstract

[Motivating operations are environmental variables that momentarily affect the value of a stimulus as a reinforcer and affect the current frequency of a behavior that has previously been reinforced with that particular. It is important for your supervisees to understand how motivating operations affect behavior as well as describe and classify motivating operations as unconditioned or conditioned. In this chapter, you will teach them the following terms: (a) establishing operations, (b) evocative effective, (c) abolishing operation, and (d) abative effect. You will discuss of how clinicians may manipulate motivating operations to improve their client’s progress toward goals. During the group supervision meeting, you will introduce the motivating operation terminology and definition. You will use games and group activities to build a solid understanding of motivating operations. Supervisees will make instructional videos about motivating operations to demonstrate their mastery of this content. During the individual supervision meetings, your supervisee will conduct a preference assessment in which prior access to the included stimuli will be systematically manipulated to determine the effects of motivating operations. You will end your session by discussing how your supervisee can use the results of this analysis to benefit their client.]
