Q

What is communicating expectations when it comes to hands on skills?

A
  • Based on research of ‘teacher’ expectations.
  • Children will perform to the levels expected AND
    communicated.
  • Reducing communicative expectation will have a negative impact on students/clients:
    • Tell clients they can meet goals.
    • Stress progress relative to client’s previous performance.
    • encourage clients to achieve as much as possible by stretching their minds.
    • Stay positive!

28
Q

You are taking away support/ability to prompt right next to them. This increases their independence.

29
Q

What is touch when it comes to hands on skills?

A

Nonthreatening therapeutic touch:

  • Shoulders
  • Upper arms
  • Neck
  • Face
  • Torso (for respiratory exercises)

this is done to support clinical instruction

30
Q

What is preparation, pacing, & fluency for therapeutic momentum when it comes to hands on skills?

A

Therapeutic Momentum: the speed, thrust, or force of
moving between sections of the session.

Proper preparation, pacing, and fluency proceeds
through the introduction, body, and closing portions
of the session.

31
Q

How do you transition from either what you are doing into actual work or from one activity to the next?

A

MINUTES MATTER!

Be overly prepared & organize to be efficient. Know what you are going to do next.

Pacing—presentation rate; slow it down when a task is
difficult and speed it up when task is easier or for
generalization

32
Q

What is fluency when it comes to therapeutic momentum?

A

the smooth transition between various parts of therapy.

Decreases fumbling around.

Decreases the usage of fillers.

33
Q

What are antecedents in regards to hands on skills?

A

the events that occur before responses.

34
Q

What can antecedents be considered as?

A

objects, pictures, re-created or enacted events, instructions, demonstrations, modeling, prompting, manual guidance, and other special stimuli.

35
Q

What conditions can be considered as antecedents?

A
  • materials
  • environment
  • prompting
36
Q

What is alerting stimuli under antecedents??

A
When a clinician draws attention to the upcoming 
stimuli:
  - “Watch my mouth”
  - “Here comes the next one”
  - “Are you ready”
37
Q

Is prompting and alerting stimuli the same thing?

A

No, the alerting stimuli isn’t going to aid in promoting a correct response like a prompt will.

38
Q

What is a cue/prompt under antecedents??

A

An aid to promote a correct response.

  • Auditory - verbal expressions using stress, pitch, quality, intonation and duration.
  • Visual - gestures, posture, facial expression.
  • Tactile-kinesthetic - touch to the speech mechanism.
39
Q

What is modeling under antecedents?

A

The clinician’s production of a target behavior for the
client to imitate.
- Model frequently with a new behavior.
- Ask the client to imitate as closely as possible.
- Reduce as the target behavior is assimilated or stabilized.

40
Q

What is prompting under antecedents?

A

Using special stimuli, verbal or nonverbal, to increase
the probability that the client will respond in a desired
manner.
- For example, when targeting the /n/ in “nose?, the clinician might say, “I smell with my ___” while pointing to her nose.
- Prompt quickly.
- Fade when no longer needed.
- Gestures are preferable to verbal mode.

41
Q

What is directing teaching in regards to hands on skills?

A

teaching, instruct, or train a new skill.

42
Q

What is learning modalities under direct teaching?

A

visual, auditory, and tactile (review chapter 3)

43
Q

What is describing and demonstrating under direct teaching?

A

Telling or detailing the
major features, functions, characteristics of the target
behavior—possibly explanation.

Descriptions may include:

- Attributes – primary characteristics.
    - Remote associations – distal times or location.
 	- Demonstrating/modeling – well-organized step-by-step explanations in comprehensible language.
44
Q

What is questioning under direct teaching?

A

Helps to focus attention.

  1. Intonation questions: declarative + inflection
  2. Tag questions: declarative + an interrogative tag, e.g., You can do it, can’t you?
  3. Wh-questions.
  4. Yes/No questions.

Don’t assume that the answer is in the child’s repertoire; you might need to give them the answer

Use questions thoughtfully & appropriately

45
Q

What is wait-time under direct teaching?

A

The amount of time a clinician waits for a response.
- 3 to 5 seconds is recommended as optimal

Optimal wait-time can depend on:

  • Client’s processing time.
  • The speed at which the environment (classroom) requires a child to process.
  • How new the information/skill is to the client.
46
Q

What is stimulus presentation in regards to hands on skills?

A

Stimulus presentations: methods used for presenting
stimuli during therapy.
- Verbal model.
- Teaching.

A systematic bridge between the client not being able to
produce the target and being able to produce it.

47
Q

What is successive approximations (shaping) under stimulus presentations?

A
  1. Select a terminal target.
  2. Identify an initial component of the target that the client CAN imitate.
  3. Identify intermediate responses.
  4. Teach initial response by modeling an immediate positive reinforcement.
  5. In successive stages, teach intermediate responses.
  6. Continue until the terminal response is taught.
48
Q

KNOW FOR EXAM

What is positive reinforcers in regards to hands on skills?

A

Anything, following a client response, which increases
the frequency of that (correct) response.

Must, in some way, be meaningful to the client.

  • Verbal Praise: “good job.”
  • Tokens: chips, tickets, etc.
49
Q

KNOW FOR EXAM

What are the two major types of reinforcers?

A

Primary

Secondary

50
Q

KNOW FOR EXAM

What are primary reinforcers? And what are the concerns?

A

those that satisfy a biological need, e.g., food, warmth.

Concerns:

  • Client must be hungry
  • The food must be a preferred food
  • Weight gain
  • Allergies
  • Medical conditions
  • Swallowing issues
51
Q

KNOW FOR EXAM

What are secondary reinforcers?

A

Secondary reinforcers:

  • Social reinforcers
  • Toys, games, etc.
  • Intrinsic (e.g., the need to be successful)
52
Q

KNOW FOR EXAM

What are reinforcement schedules?

A

Continuous
Or
Intermittent

53
Q

KNOW FOR THE EXAM

What is a continuous reinforcement schedule?

A

1:1 ratio of correct response to reinforcer.

Works best when a new target behavior is being taught.

54
Q

KNOW FOR THE EXAM

What is a intermittent reinforcement schedule?

A

Ratio.- when you are going to reinforce after a set amount of prompts, then you back off.

Variable./ Random- it changes (i.e. after ever 3 prompts, then after every successful response, etc.) Best when the client can predict the reinforcer.
Works best for intermediate & advanced work.

55
Q

What is corrective feedback in regards to hands on skills?

A

the information that the clinician gives the client regarding the quality, feature or correctness of a preceding response.

It’s important to think critically and systematically about this feedback.

56
Q

What does the clinician learn when giving corrective feedback?

A
  1. Increases your own knowledge of the behaviors
    leading up to the target behavior.
  2. Compares the client’s response to the target—is it
    correct?
  3. Task analyzes what was correct/incorrect about the
    production/response.
  4. Explains to the client what was correct.
  5. Addresses the incorrect portion of the response and
    teach it.
57
Q

What is data collection in regards to hands on skills?

A

Develop your own system, preferably with a base of 10.

Most helpful is a system that counts AND reinforces.

Run clinical trials: structured opportunities to produce
a response.

58
Q

What take data?

A

Why take data?

  • To determine whether or not the target behavior is advancing.
  • To make dismissal decisions.
  • To determine if the target work has generalized to similar targets.
  • To analyze successes & barriers.
  • To help with treatment modifications.

60
Q

what is a baseline?

A

a client’s pretreatment response accuracy or on previous session’s goals.

61
Q

DIDN’T GO INTO IT. PROBABLY NOT ON THE EXAM

A
