As the natural science of behavior evolves, the use of precise terminology is critical to maintain its conceptual and terminological integrity. The current state of terminology in stimulus control is well developed with respect to reinforcement and incomplete with respect to punishment. In this paper, we aim to make the case that the current conceptualization for discriminative stimulus control in relation to punishment would be enhanced by modifying the definition of the discriminative stimulus for punishment (S) and by adding a new term to the current taxonomy that denotes when a punishment contingency is inactive.
随着行为自然科学的发展,使用精确的术语对于保持其概念和术语的完整性至关重要。当前刺激控制方面的术语状况在强化方面已得到充分发展,而在惩罚方面则不够完善。在本文中,我们旨在说明,通过修改惩罚性辨别刺激(S)的定义,并在当前分类法中添加一个新术语来表示惩罚性应急情况何时不活跃,当前关于惩罚的辨别刺激控制的概念化将得到加强。
