Response class vs stimulus class. A stimulus class is a group of stimuli that should occasion the same response. For example when i clean my kitchen i can wash the dishes with a sponge or i can put the dishes in the dishwasher. Is a set of related stimuli.
It is the activity of the organism or of his body parts as a reaction to the stimulation of his senses. A set of stimuli all of which have some common property. We manipulate environmental events and behaviour through systematic manipulations.
Terms in this set 7 stimulus class. If the changes in the stimulus class alter the dimensions of a response in any way then a functional relationship is said to exist. Applied behavior analysis 2nd edition this means the responses physically look different even though they have the same effect on the environment.
Stimulus is the first event that takes place and the response is the result. For example teaching a few red items of but reinforcing the student identifying any red object not just the objects taught. As behaviour analysts we seek to identify the function of the relationship between a stimulus class and response class.
A stimulus could be of any magnitude but the response could never go beyond the highest capability of an organism. A response is the behavior that is manifested by a living organism which is the result of an external or internal stimulus. A stimulus refers to a detectable change in the internal or external environment while a response refers to any behavior of a living organism that results from an external or internal stimulus.
When any part of an organism or of man s sensory organs is stimulated a reaction or a response will result. A group of responses of varying topography all of which produce the same effect on the environment. Stimulus cannot be always controlled especially the external stimuli whereas response could be controlled.
