comprehensive assessment Flashcards
Provide examples of how to maintain client dignity.
maintain privacy and confidentiality
Provide examples of how to maintain
professional boundaries.
describe your role
communicate with family and caregivers
avoid dual relationships
respond professionally to feedback
Describe BACB Supervision Standards for RBTs.
RBT must obtain ongoing supervision for a minimum of 5% of the hours spent providing behavior-analytic services per month.
2 face-to-face meetings per month.
Describe at least one situation in which you’d seek clinical direction from your supervisor.
when you are unsure how to properly implement a new plan or if a new behavior has occurred that was harmful to self
Shaping
beaking a behavior into its basic steps and then reinforcing
ex-teaching to walk (reinforce crawling then standing then walking)
incidental teaching
taking advantage of naturally occurring incidents or events to promote behavior . CHILD initiated
Preference Assessments
-single stimulus
-paired stimulus
-multiple stimulus
-free operant- is conducted by allowing the learner free access to stimuli in their environment and taking data on items and activities they gravitate toward.
Continuous Measurement
tracking of every instance a target behavior happens during a specified time frame
Discontinuous Measurement
partial interval
whole interval
momentary time sampling
Stimulus Control Transfer
established through discrimination training the process of teaching behavior only under certain stimuli.
Permanent product recording
recording measures whether a behavior happened based on a concrete result of the target behavior.
The most common graph in ABA is a ______________. On this graph, the measure of behavior goes on the ______________.
A line graph is the most commonly used graph in ABA. On a line graph, the measure of behavior goes on the vertical Y-axis.
Which of the following would you not do while conducting a skill-based assessment with your client?
a-Present the instruction without prompts
b-Record whether they responded accurately
c-Go through the error correction procedure
d-Do all of the above when conducting a skills assessment
c-When administering assessments, you do not correct errors.
Which assessment tool consists of manipulating variables to determine the function of a target behavior?
Descriptive assessment
Indirect assessment
ABC Analysis
Functional analysis
Only a functional analysis (FA) manipulates variables to identify the function of a behavior. In descriptive and indirect assessments, only a hypothesized function can be identified.
The tokens in a token economy are:
Unconditioned reinforcers
Primary reinforcers
Generalized conditioned reinforcers
Punishers
Tokens in a token economy are generalized conditioned reinforcers. These are reinforcers that have gone through a pairing process with many different reinforcers until they become reinforcing on their own
Which of the following is true of extinction?
It is a punishment procedure
It involves giving attention for appropriate behaviors
You always ignore the behavior when using extinction
It involves withholding reinforcement for previously reinforced behaviors
Extinction involves not reinforcing behaviors that were previously reinforced. It is not a punishment procedure.
_________________ is the process of adding or removing something following a behavior, which results in the behavior occurring more often.
Reinforcement results in the behavior occurring more frequently in the future
what is
mand
tact
echocic
intraverbal
mand- a request for food, toys, information, etc
tact- labeling something
echoic - repeating what was said
intraverbal- a conversation
two types of continuous management
frequency and duration
when using receptive dtt and using least to most prompting what prompt would you fade to after using physical.
model prompt
prompt hierarchy
positional, gestural, visual, model, verbal, physical.
4 schedules of reinforcement
fi,vi, fr, vr
positive/negative reinforcement and punishment
positive -stimulus added
negative -stimulus removed
reinforcement - behavior increase
punishment- behavior decreases
