| 1. Reinforcement and Punishment effects are created by the contingency. |
| 2. Reinforcement effects occur when the contingency produces a deficit in the amount of the contingent response (response deprivation). |
| 3. Punishment effects occur when the contingency produces an excess in the amount of the contingent response (response excess). |
| 4. The same contingent response can be a reinforcer or a punisher depending on the contingency. |
