A Behavior Analyst’s Guide to Supervising Fieldwork: Stimulus Control [Stimulus control is established by a history of differential consequences, meaning when in the presence of one stimulus, a behavior is consistently followed by reinforcement and in the presence of another stimulus, the behavior consistently contacts extinction or a less potent version of the reinforcement. If behavior is observed to occur more often in the presence of the first stimulus and less often in the presence of the second stimulus, stimulus control has been established.

Abstract

[Stimulus control is established by a history of differential consequences, meaning when in the presence of one stimulus, a behavior is consistently followed by reinforcement and in the presence of another stimulus, the behavior consistently contacts extinction or a less potent version of the reinforcement. If behavior is observed to occur more often in the presence of the first stimulus and less often in the presence of the second stimulus, stimulus control has been established. In this chapter, you will introduce your supervisees to discriminative stimuli and both simple and conditional discriminations. During the group supervision meeting, you will review discriminative stimuli and strategies to avoid establishing faulty stimulus control. In addition, your supervisees will practice identifying simple discriminations and conditional discriminations. During the individual supervision meeting, you and your supervisee will review the conditional discrimination goal they developed and determine the appropriate teaching procedures for their client. During the final supervision meeting, you will instruct your supervisee to implement the procedures for teaching conditional discriminations with their client.]
