Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Antecedent refers to a stimulus or event that precedes and triggers a behavior. It can be a cue, prompt, signal or anything that prompts one to engage in a particular behavior.

B and D are incorrect because while reward and consequence can influence behavior, they do not necessarily precede it.

A is incorrect because Kaizen refers to a continuous improvement strategy used in business and process improvement, and is not directly related to behavior.
