Definitions:

Counterconditioning

A behavior therapy technique that involves replacing an undesirable response to a stimulus with a more desirable one.

Higher-Order Conditioning

A process in classical conditioning by which a stimulus that's associated with a conditioned stimulus also becomes capable of eliciting a conditioned response.

Successive Approximations

A method used in behavior modification that rewards behaviors that progressively get closer to the desired behavior.

Intermittent Reinforcement

A conditioning schedule where a response is only sometimes reinforced, leading to more resistant and persistent behavior.
