108.Of the following, Ann’s request best illustrates a behavior resulting from:
a.classical conditioning.
b.positive reinforcement.
c.negative reinforcement.
d.vicarious learning.
109.Consider Mr. Horton, Steve, and Ann. Based on the information in the example, which of the following statements is most accurate?
a.Mr. Horton was a model for both Steve and Ann.
b.Mr. Horton was a model for Steve but not Ann.
c.Mr. Horton was a model for Ann but not Steve.
d.Steve was a model for Ann.

a.Positive reinforcement
b.Negative reinforcement
c.Vicarious reinforcement
d.Continuous reinforcement
111.Consider Mrs. Evertson, Andy, and the rest of the students. Which of the following is the most accurate statement?
a.Mrs. Evertson is attempting to be a model for Andy as well as the rest of the students.

d.removal punisher.
113.With respect to Kareem’s behavior, the reprimand best illustrates a:
a.negative reinforcer.
b.vicarious punisher.

a.new learning effect.
b.facilitating existing behaviors effect.
c.weakening inhibition effect.
d.emotional arousal effect.
117. The type of modeling illustrated in the example is best described as:
