13 Mar Consider your own behavioral repertoire and identify and define examples of behavior, response, and response class.
Discussion: Behavior and Environment
“Behavior analysis is characterized by a functional analysis of the effects of the behavior on the environment. A response class is a group of responses with the same function (that is, each response in the group produces the same effect on the environment)” (Cooper et al., 2020, p. 27) PSYC 6717: Foundation and Philosophy of Behavior Analysis.
The infographic below provides three examples of response class. For example: scream, throw, hit head, and name call are specific instances of behavior, or responses. Because they are a group of responses intended to produce the same effect on the environment—attention—the response class is attention. PSYC 6717: Foundation and Philosophy of Behavior Analysis
In this Discussion, you will consider your own behavioral repertoire and identify and define examples of behavior, response, and response class.
