16
Q

Discrete Trial Teaching is…

A

using a basic process to teach a new skill or behavior and repeating it until children learn

17
Q

Naturalistic Teaching: NET

A

observing for opportunities to reinforce a client in a natural way and setting

18
Q

Chaining is…

A

breaking a task down into small steps and then teaching each step

19
Q

Different types of Chaining is…

A

forward chaining, backward chaining, and total chaining

20
Q

Forward Chaining is…

A

starting the first step in a task and letting the client do as they can

21
Q

Backward Chaining is…

A

prompting through everything in task then going back again and not doing the last step and seeing if they remember, then repeating the process backward

22
Q

Total Chaining

A

helping throughout the whole task, while letting them do what they can and intervening when help is needed

23
Q

Shaping is…

A

the use of reinforcement of the desired behavior to teach a whole behavior

24
Q

Discrimination Training is…

A

training so that the student can discriminate between different instructions or stimulus

25
Q

Stimulus Control Transfer

A

“ fading prompt “ , techniques in which prompts are discontinued once the target behavior is being displayed in the presence of the discriminative stimulus

26
Q

Prompting is…

A

instructions, gestures, demonstrations, touches, or other things that we arrange or do to increase the likelihood that children will make correct responses

27
Q

Examples of Prompting…

A
  • least to most, most to least
  • verbal prompting
  • gesture prompting
  • physical prompting
  • positional prompting
28
Q

Token System is…

A

rewards that are the reinforcers that the child earns and that are then exchanged for a larger reward

29
Q

Crisis Emergency is…

A

the company or parents policy on what to do when a crisis is happening

30
Q

Differential Reinforcement (DTT) is…

A

simply reinforcing one behavior and putting other behaviors on extinction

31
Q

Differential Reinforcement of Other Behaviors (DRO)

A

When that behavior is not happening, you deliver reinforce

32
Q

Differential Reinforcement of Incompatible Behaviors (DRI)

A

When the second behavior happens, you reinforce that behavior

33
Q

Differential Reinforcement of Alternative Behaviors (DRA)

A

Pick a target behavior and a replacement behavior . When the replacement behavior happens, reinforce that behavior

34
Q

Differential Reinforcement of Low Rates of Behaviors (DRL)

A

When the behavior occurs less than the target criteria, you reinforce that behavior

35
Q

Antecedent Interventions is…

A

Strategies that focus on structuring and modifying the environment and conditions that occur before a behavior is demonstrated so that the behavior is less likely to occur

36
Q

Extinction Burst is…

A

an expected increase in behavior at the start of extinction

37
Q

Client Dignity is…

A

Respect the client the same way you would respect yourself and your family

38
Q

Supervision Requirements are…

A

a minimum of 5% of the hours spent providing applied behavior-analytic services per month
