 Richard prior taught me to laugh at myself Let that one sink in All right antecedent Anything that happens prior Let's try this again ready antecedent That was a really bad joke because these really shouldn't be antecedents these are consequences These are what happens after a behavior and antecedent is what happens before behavior simple antecedent Behavior concept. Let me try this again antecedent behavior consequence antecedent any setting event whatever in the world it is that happens prior to behavior All right, and they'll throw it before that one exactly right before immediately before I knew when there's other There's lots of different types of them, but it's just what happens right before a behavior It's all you got to worry about it could be anything people think it's like something special that you have to go to a room And that's an antecedent no it could be how hungry you are shit time since last meal Hungry hungry is a hypothetical and time since last meal it could be the amount of time since you've eaten It could be How horny you are it could be all sorts of stuff you never anything can be an antecedent it could be the wall it could be The blinds it could be the lights it could be the camera it could be you Anything that comes before behavior and then later on we'll talk about stimulus control and a seat and control will come back
