Relational Frame Theory and Stimulus Equivalence: Conceptual and Procedural Issues
The article begins with a brief outline of the phenomenon of stimulus equivalence and its relationship to human verbal behavior. Relational Frame Theory is then outlined as a behavior-analytic account of both stimulus equivalence and human language. The experimental procedures that have typically been used to examine stimulus equivalence are then considered, before focusing on a series of studi...
متن کاملUsing action dynamics to assess competing stimulus control during stimulus equivalence testing.
Previous studies have identified potential sources of competing stimulus control in tests for stimulus equivalence. The present experiment employed the Nintendo Wii remote (Wiimote®) to investigate whether such competition would affect suboperant action dynamics (e.g., topographies of equivalence responses). Following one-to-many training on conditional discriminations sufficient to establish t...
متن کاملAcquired equivalence changes stimulus representations.
Acquired equivalence is a paradigm in which generalization is increased between two superficially dissimilar stimuli (or antecedents) that have previously been associated with similar outcomes (or consequents). Several possible mechanisms have been proposed, including changes in stimulus representations, either in the form of added associations or a change of feature salience. A different way o...
متن کاملAn fMRI study of stimulus equivalence.
In order to study brain activation during the formation of equivalence relations, 12 subjects underwent fMRI during matching-to-sample (MTS) tests of (1) previously trained arbitrary relationships between iconic stimuli and the untrained, emergent relations of (2) symmetry, (3) transitivity, and (4) symmetry with transitivity, plus a test of verbal fluency (VF). Brain activation was similar in ...
متن کاملExploring Stimulus Equivalence Formation in Infants
A systmatic replication of the Devany, Hayes and Nelson (1986) and the Augustson and Dougher (1992) studies was conducted with infants to explore the relation of stimulus equivalence to language development. 9 normal infants, age 21 to 25 months participated in 5 to 15 experimental sessions, each session on a different day. Infants expressive language skills were assessed (REEL Scale 2, 1991) b...
