A04 Distinguish Among Behaviorism, The Experimental Analysis of Behavior, ABA, & Professional Practice Guided by the Science of Behavior Analysis Flashcards
Behavior Analysis work in one or more of the four interrelated domains of
- Behavoirism (theoretical and philosophical issues)
- EAB - basic research
- ABA - applied research
- Professional Practice - providing behavior services to clients
Behaviorism
theory and philosophy , conceptual and philosophical, theoretical account of all behavior consistant with existing data
Behavior Analysis consist of __________ Branches
3 brances
- Behaviorism
- EAB
- ABA
Behavior Analysis is
how we can arrange the enviornment we make (applied behavior more probable) using the three brances
E A B methodological features are :
- -rate of responding
- repeated, continuous measurement
- with-in subject experiment, comparison of behavior
- visual analysis
- description of of functional relation is value over theory
Behaviorism
What people do can be understood
Which exemplifies basic science? A reading program
Designed to investigate how students learn to read
Research on the basic principles of behavior is characterized by
Experimental analysis of behavior
_____________is the tactical science from a principal of behavior used for behavior change
_________ is used to identify the variable responsible for behavior change **
ABA
experimentation
Which exemplifies a behavioral technology? A reading program
That has been experimentally demonstrated to improve reading
Which of the following is❌ not a characteristic of the experimental analysis of behavior?
It is a method for studying behavior in natural environments
ABA
was defined by Baer, Wolf, and Risley (1968)
a natural science States that all behavior change program must meet seven dimensions to be considered Appplied Behavior Analysis (ABA):
Charactertistics of ABA are the 7 Dimensions
Applied
Behavioral
Analytic
Tecnological
Effective
Conceptually Systematic
Generallity
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)
is the
Natrual sceience in which tactics/technology derived from the principals of behavior as applied systematically to improve socially sgnificant behavior and experimenation used to identify the variables responsible for the behavior change
A teacher combines a variety of empirically validated strategies to form and evaluate her own behavior management system. This is best characterized as
Practice guided by behavior analysis
A BCBA works with several clients who were recently diagnosed with food allergies. The clients will begin eating restricted diets to address the allergies and the BCBA suspects the food restrictions might result in improvements in the clients’ target behaviors. The families agree to work with the BCBA to evaluate the independent and combined effects of the diet and behavior change programs using a multiple baseline across subjects design. The BCBA is engaging in
ABA
ABA
design , conducts and report applied experiments
Which of the following is not characteristic of applied behavior analysis?
It addresses only important pathological behavior.
When engaging in practice guided by behavior analysis, you must
Determine whether a treatment package produces the desired results
Which contribution can be directly attributed to the experimental analysis of behavior?
The distinction between respondent and operant behavior
The practice of behavior analysis
Applies the findings of the experimental analysis of behavior and applied research to social issues.
The experimental analysis of behavior is characterized by
Basic research
EAB
the branch of research in a laboratory setting with humans and non-humans
Which is the plilosophy of the science of behavior
3 brances
a. Behaviorism
b. EAB
c. ABA
d. Applied Behaviror
a. Behaviorism
a.—– is a natrual science it studies
b.—– between
c. ——-and the —-
d.——-
Behavior analysis
functional relations between
behavior and
enviornment
Behavior analysis also includes the practical
technological application of our science
Behavior analysis is both a
natrual science and a technology
True or False
Thinking about dinner is a behavior
True (private event)
the individual doing the behavior can detect tis occurance
