Q

Behavior Chain

Q

3 Characteristics of a Behavior Chain

A
  1. Performance of a specific set of discrete responses
  2. The performance of each response changes the environment in such a way that it produced conditioned reinforcement
  3. The response in the chain must be completed in the correct order and close in time.

Q

Interrupting or Breaking Behavior Chains

A

A method designed to lesson behavior by unlinking one element of the chain from the next so that one link no longer serves as an SD or conditioned reinforcer for the next link

Q

Full Session DRH/DRD/DRL

A

Reinforcement is delivered at the end of a session, if during the entire session the target behavior occurred at a number equal to or below the predetermined criterion

26
Q

Ethics Warning: DRH/DRD/DRL

A

Takes time to implement, do not use for behaviors that need a speedy decrease
DRD/DRL: Do not use with dangerous behaviors

27
Q

Contingency Dependent

A

The antecedent is dependent on the consequence of the behavior for developing evocative and abative effects

28
Q

Contingency Independent

A

The antecedent is not dependent on the consequences of behavior for developing evocative and abative effects

29
Q

3 Antecedent Interventions

A
  1. Noncontingent Reinforcement
  2. High Probability request Sequence
  3. Functional Communication Training
30
Q

Why use NCR?

A

Reinforcers that maintain the behavior are freely and readily accessible in NCR, but does not teach new behavior

31
Q

3 Components of Contingency Contracts (Behavior Contracts) (BRD)

A

1) Behavior clearly described
2) Reward clearly described
3) Data: Behaviors data

32
Q

Group Contingencies

A

A common consequence is contingent on the behavior of 1 member of the group, part of the group, or the whole group.

33
Q

3 Types of Group Contingencies (DII)

A

Dependent Group Contingency
Independent Group Contingency
Interdependent Group Contingency

34
Q

Dependent Group Contingency

A

The group’s reinforcer is dependent on the behavior of an individual or small group of individuals

35
Q

Independent Group Contingency

A

All members of a group are offered a contingency, but only those who meet the contingency earn reinforcement

36
Q

Ethics Warning: Dependent Group Contingency

A

Choose students who can realistically meet the criteria otherwise the group may react negatively

37
Q

Interdependent Group Contingency

A

In order for the group to earn reinforcement, all of the individuals in a group must meet the criterion of the established contingency

38
Q

Good Behavior game

A

The group is divided into 2 or more teams and a DRL is implemented in an attempt to decrease challenging behavior. The group that has the lowest behavior wins.

39
Q

Good Student Game

A

Designed to be implemented during independent seatwork periods when challenging behaviors tend to arise.

40
Q

Self-Management

A

Employment of behavior analytic interventions to the behavior of oneself

41
Q

Antecedent-Based Self-Management Tactics (6)

A
  1. Manipulating MO’s
  2. Providing Response Prompts (cues)
  3. Performing Initial Steps of a behavior Chain
  4. Removing materials required for undesired behavior
  5. Limiting undesired behavior to restricted stimulus conditions
  6. Dedicating a specific environment for a behavior
42
Q

Self-Monitoring

A

Procedure in which a person observes their own behavior systematically and records occurrence or nonoccurrence of behavior

43
Q

Self-Evaluation

A

Comparison of an individuals performance by him/herself with a pre-determined criterion

44
Q

Self-Administered Consequences

A

Providing small and easy consequences for self after reviewing, self-monitoring data

45
Q

Self-Instruction

A

Self-generated verbal response, covert or overt, that functions as a response prompt for a desired behavior

46
Q

Habit Reversal

A

A multi-component treatment package for reducing unwanted habits that involves identifying events that precede a target behavior and engaging in competing responses

47
Q

Self-Directed Systematic Desensitization

A

Substituting one behavior for unwanted behavior

48
Q

Massed Practice

A

Forcing oneself to perform an undesired behavior repeatedly

49
Q

Ethics Warning: Massed Practice

A

Making a person engage in an undesired behavior repeatedly can be dangerous

50
Q

2 Types of Prompts

A
  1. Response Prompts

2. Stimulus Prompts

51
Q

Response Prompts

A

Act on the response itself, not on the antecedent stimuli (verbal, model, physical prompts)

52
Q

Stimulus Prompts

A

Stimulus prompts act on the antecedent stimuli and not on the response (Movement, position, etc.)

53
Q

4 Ways to Remove Response Prompts (MLGD)

A

Most-to-Least prompting
Least-to-Most Prompting
Graduated Guidance
Delayed Prompting

54
Q

A
  1. DTT
  2. Incidental Teaching
  3. Direct Instruction
  4. Precision Teaching
  5. Personalized System of Instruction
56
Q

Precision Teaching

A

A formal, individualized ABA instructional method that emphasizes rate building, charting performance, ad designing and implementing teaching that reinforcers the emission of each specific behavior under all conditions in which it is expected to occur

57
Q

Principles to Precision Teaching (4)

A
  1. It is the teacher’s responsibility to ensure student success.
  2. Focuses on directly observable behavior
  3. The measure of performance is frequency
  4. Uses a standard celeration chart.
58
Q

Personalized System of Instruction (PSI)

A

An ABA instructional methodology characterized by self-pacing, use of proctors, unit master, emphasis on the written word, and motivation lectures.

59
Q

Personalized System of Instruction (PSI) Guidelines

A
  1. Self-paced
  2. Unit mastery is 90%
  3. Written materials, no lectures
  4. Proctors used frequently
  5. Lectures used more for reinforcement
60
Q

Response Deprivation Hypothesis (RDH)

A

A model for predicting whether contingent access to one behavior with function as reinforcement for engaging in another behavior
