Satiation

An abolishing operation in which the individual has engaged in some sort of behavior that temporarily decreased the value of a consequence as a reinforcer and temporarily makes the person less likely to engage in behaviors to access that consequence. Eating six double cheeseburgers would produce satiation- the individual would probably be less likely to engage in behavior that would help them access more food to eat as a consequence.
