Q

What is prompting ? What are prompts ? What is fading ?

A

Prompting- is used to increase the correct behavior at the correct time(meant to remove the prompt)

Prompt- supplemental antecedent stimulus, the prompt is not the Sd It attracts attention to the SD (prompt should not have stimulus control over behavior only this Sd

Fading- gradually remove the prompt

Q

Why is it important to always start with the least intrusive type of response prompt?

Q

List and briefly describe the 3 techniques used to ensure transfer of stimulus control occurs.

A

Prompt fading –
1 fading within prompts(One prompt , saying less and giving hints over time within the prompt)
2 fading across prompts (multiple prompts, least to most prompting and fading(starting with verbal) , most to least prompting and fading(starting with physical)

Prompt delay- present SD then see if response occurs if not present prompt a couple minutes later

Stimulus fading- within stimulus prompt (bring it back to its natural form)
Extra stimulus prompt (gradually remove added stimulus)
Ex Gradually removing dotted line when teaching kids to trace a word
