Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Stimulus control is developed through gradual discrimination training, which is the process of teaching an individual to respond only to a specific discriminative stimulus and to differentiate between that antecedent and similar but irrelevant stimuli. This type of training serves to increase the likelihood of a desirable behavior occurring in the presence of the desired stimulus, and decrease the likelihood of the same or other behaviors occurring in response to other stimuli. Therefore, the correct answer is B, stimulus discrimination training.
