怎样理解ABA中的区辨刺激 discriminative sti

What Is Discriminative Stimulus – Definition & Examples

什么是区辨刺激——定义与实例

What Is A Discriminative Stimulus?

什么是区辨刺激？

A discriminative stimulus is a stimulus that when it is present, it generates a particular response and the response is usually faster, more frequent, and more resistant to extinction. The responding behavior is then subjected to discriminative stimulus control. A discriminative stimulus (Sd or SD) is created when the response is reinforced in its presence, but not when it is absent.

一个有区辨的刺激是一种刺激，当它出现时，它产生一个特定的反应，这个反应通常更快，更频繁，更能抵抗消失。反应行为受到区分性刺激控制。一种区辨刺激(SD 或 SD)产生时，反应在其存在加强，在其不存在时不存在。

For example, a child requests to watch TV and historically, he is granted more screen time when his Mom has to get on a conference call for work, but never when she doesn’t have to take a call. So having a work related phone call is a Sd that controls the child’s requesting behavior.

例如，一个孩子要求看电视，从过往来看，当他的妈妈因为工作需要参加电话会议时，他可以有更多的时间看电视，但是当她不需要接电话时，他就没有时间了。因此，打一个与工作相关的电话是一个控制孩子请求行为的区辨刺激。

Discrimination And Classical Conditioning

区辨与经典条件反射

When an originally neural stimulus is repeatedly paired with an unconditioned stimulus to generate a response, the neural stimulus becomes a conditioned stimulus for that response.

当一个最初的神经刺激与一个非条件刺激重复配对以产生反应时，神经刺激就成为该反应的条件刺激。

Discrimination And Operant Conditioning

歧视与操作制约

Discriminative stimuli have control over a particular behavior because the behavior is reliably reinforced through positive or negative reinforcement and punishment when the stimuli present and not when they are absent.

区辨性刺激对特定行为具有控制力，因为这种行为可靠地通过正面或负面的强化和惩罚来加强，当刺激出现时，而不是缺失时。

Discriminative Stimulus Examples

区辨刺激的例子

Here are some more examples of discriminative stimulus.

这里有一些区辨刺激的例子。

When a child asks for a candy, she always gets one during grandma’s visit, but not in her absence. Grandma’s visiting is a Sd that controls the child’s asking behavior.

当孩子要糖果的时候，她总是在奶奶来看她的时候得到一块，但不是在她不在的时候。奶奶的拜访是一个控制孩子索要糖果行为的 Sd。

When the traffic light turns green, drivers keep their car going forward, but not when the light turns red. The green light is then a Sd for going while the red light is for stopping.

当交通灯变成绿灯时，司机会让车继续向前行驶，但当交通灯变成红灯时就不会。绿灯表示前进，红灯表示停止。

When a manager is present, the employees work faster than when she’s not present. The manager’s presence is a Sd that controls how fast the employees do their work.

当经理在场时，员工的工作速度比她不在场时要快。管理者的存在是一个控制员工工作速度的区辨刺激。

When Mom is present, the child completes his homework, but when Mom leaves the room, the child stops doing homework. Mom’s presence is a Sd that controls the homework doing behavior.

当妈妈在的时候，孩子完成了作业，但是当妈妈离开房间的时候，孩子就停止做作业了。妈妈的存在是一个控制家庭作业行为区辨刺激。

You give a dog a treat when it barks at a certain person, but not when it barks at another person. Then that first person becomes a Sd that control the dog’s barking behavior.

当狗对某人吠叫时，你给它一个奖励，但不是当它对另一个人吠叫时。然后，第一个人成为一个 Sd，控制狗的吠叫行为。

Stimulus Discrimination Vs Generalization

区辨刺激与泛化

Stimulus generalization is defined as the extension of conditioning so that similar stimuli that have not been reinforced can act as conditioned stimulus to generate a specific response2. Now an individual responds to not only the one stimulus that has been reinforced, but also others that share similar characteristics. Generalization can occur in classical conditioning as well as operant conditioning.

刺激泛化被定义为条件反射的延伸，使未经强化的相似刺激可以作为条件刺激产生特定的反应。现在一个人不仅对一个刺激物有反应，而且对其他有相似特征的刺激物也有反应。这种现象在经典条件反射和操作制约都有可能发生。

For example, a bee stings you. You will begin to fear it resulting in fear conditioning. But you will also begin to fear other insects that look similar. The more similar another insect is to a bee, the more you will fear it.

例如，蜜蜂蜇你。你将开始害怕它导致恐惧条件化。但是你也会开始害怕其他看起来相似的昆虫。另一种昆虫和蜜蜂越相似，你就越害怕它。

Your conditioned response (fear) has generalize from the training stimulus (bees) to another stimulus (insects similar to a bee).

你的条件反应(恐惧)已经从训练刺激(蜜蜂)概括到另一个刺激(昆虫类似于蜜蜂)。

Discriminative Stimulus In Parenting

父母教育中的区辨刺激

Discriminative stimuli are often used in parenting to help children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and those with mental retardation3.

区辨刺激经常被用来帮助那些患有自闭症和智能障碍的孩子。

A branch of non-mainstream psychology, called Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), has emerged to teach Sd-based techniques to parents who have kids with ASD. These ABA techniques help children develop social skills and decrease behaviors that may interfere with their independence in life4.

非主流心理学的一个分支，称为应用行为分析(ABA) ，已经出现，教授基于 sd 的技术的父母谁有自闭症的孩子。这些 ABA 技术帮助儿童发展社会技能，减少可能干扰他们生活独立的行为。

In ABA therapy, discriminative stimulus and differential reinforcement are used to teach children how to respond appropriately or give a correct answer. An ABA therapist will work with parents to make sure that they understand how to apply the correct techniques.

在 ABA 治疗中，使用区辨刺激和差别强化来教导儿童如何正确地回应或给出正确的答案。ABA 治疗师将与父母一起工作，以确保他们了解如何应用正确的技术。
