Book Conditioning Verbal Behavior

Book excerpt: The general purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of the operant conditioner's behavior during the baseline upon subsequent operant conditioning of opinion statements emitted by freshmen undergraduate students. Specifically, the study attempted to answer the following research questions: Is it possible to systematically condition opinion statements in a verbal conditioning situation that resembles a counseling interview? Does the behavior of the operant conditioner during the baseline have any influence on subsequent conditioning of opinion statements in a verbal conditioning situation resembling a counseling interview? Is there a difference in the number of opinion statements emitted in a verbal conditioning situation resembling a counseling interview for males and females? Is there any interaction between the baseline behavior of the operant conditioner, the sex of the subject, and the stage of treatment in the conditioning of opinion statements? Subjects for the study were freshmen undergraduate students. Two experiments were conducted in which each subject was seen individually twice in an "interview" setting. Treatments were administered in an ABAB design with each stage lasting twenty-five minutes. All "interviews" were taped and listeners listened to the tapes and tabulated opinion and non-opinion statements for each stage. The operant conditioners recorded opinion statements as they occurred by pressing foot switches that activated counters in another room. The correlation between the numbers of opinion statements tallied by the operant conditioners and the listeners was .98 in both experiments. In experiment one, a trained undergraduate operant conditioner administered four treatments to forty subjects. There were five males and five females in each treatment condition. Treatments one, two, and four consisted of continuous verbal reinforcement being administered for the emission of opinion statements during stages two and four. For treatment one the baseline and return to baseline conditions consisted of silence by the operant conditioner. During treatment two, the operant conditioner administered random reinforcements on an average of two and one-half minutes during stages one and three. During the baseline and return to baseline conditions for treatment four the operant conditioner and the subjects engaged in normal conversation. Treatment three subjects received silence from the operant conditioner during the baseline and return to baseline conditions and engaged in normal conversation with the operant conditioners during stages two and four. In experiment two, a different trained undergraduate operant conditioner administered three treatments to thirty subjects, five males and five females in each treatment condition. In treatment one random reinforcement during the baseline and return to baseline was followed by variable interval reinforcement administered on an average of every two and one-half minutes. Treatment two consisted of random reinforcement followed by continuous reinforcement. During treatment three non-opinion statements were reinforced on a variable interval schedule of two and one-half minutes during the baseline and return to baseline stages, and opinion statements were reinforced on a variable interval schedule of two and one-half minutes during the conditioning stages. The major findings indicated that: Verbal conditioning occurred under continuous reinforcement conditions and when variable interval reinforcement was preceeded by reinforcement of non-opinion responses. The baseline behavior of the operant conditioner was not a stastically significant factor in subsequent conditioning of opinion statements. There was no difference in the number of opinion statements emitted by males and females. There were significant interactions between the baseline behavior of the operant conditioner, the sex of the subject, and the stage of treatment in the conditioning of opinion statements.

Book The Social Influence Processes

Download or read book The Social Influence Processes written by James T. Tedeschi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-12 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social psychologists have always been concerned with two-person interactions and the factors enabling one person to gain dominance. Although social psychology has devised a revolutionary set of techniques to investigate the phenomenon of power, hypotheses are too often ambiguously stated, research programs end in cul-de-sacs, and experiments take on the character of one-shot studies. In an attempt to stimulate new directions in research and to provide cumulative emphasis on the development of scientific theory in the area of power relations, Tedeschi has assembled original and path breaking essays from a dozen outstanding scholars and researchers in the behavioral sciences. More tightly integrated than leading books in the field of power relations, The Social Influence Processes focuses on two-person interactions. A full explanation of the terms "power" and "influence" is followed by an analysis of the major variables in connections between two persons that must be taken into account in a scientific theory of social influence. The subsequent chapters respond to the categories established, attempting a comprehensive construction of social reality and offering suggestions and techniques for measuring and ordering its complexity. Particular areas of research and theory are isolated for consideration in depth--such topics as personality as a power construct (Power and Personality by Henry L. Minton), influence in exchange theory (The Tactical Use of Social Power by Andrew Michener and Robert W. Suchner), and leadership through charisma (Interpersonal Attraction and Social Influence by Elaine Walster and Darcy Abrahams). In the final chapter, Tedeschi, Thomas Bonoma, and Barry R. Schlenker attempt to provide a general theory of social influence processes as they affect the target individual by reviewing the research literature in their own theoretical terms. This remarkable volume will be of interest to students as well

Book Methods of Research in Psychotherapy

Download or read book Methods of Research in Psychotherapy written by Louis A. Gottschalk and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 664 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The prospective reader may well ask about the particular merits of this volume, especially in view of several dozen similar offerings, each with its own excellences, and of the easy availability of symposia, conferences, con ventional reviews, abstract journals, and serial research reports. In spite of such other attractions, it seems to me that these 34 essays are among the most informative and stimulating which are now available in the areas cov ered. The editors have been successful in attracting new articles from many of the most prominent investigators now actively working at research in psychotherapy, who can therefore speak for themselves about what they are doing. Several of the articles have been in the preparatory stage for numerous years. Not only do they represent the vanguard of research, but because of the introduction of relatively new concepts in communication theory in the clinical setting which can be implemented by the new tech nology (specifically the use of sound-films and tape), they probably presage the shape of much that is to come. It is commonplace that the history of a science is closely allied to the history of the tools available. Here we see the concepts, attitudes, and working methods on this frontier being set forth frankly and concretely in ways which avoid many of the deficiencies and evasions of previous clini cal research.
