Q

Q

A reinforcer assessment in which multiple reinforcers are available for a single behavior at separate times defines a
A. Multiple stimuli reinforcer assessment
B. Concurrent schedule reinforcer assessment
C. Progressive ratio schedule reinforcer assessment
D. Multiple schedule reinforcer assessment

A

D
A multiple schedule reinforcer assessment delivers different reinforcers for one behavior at separate times. A different SD accompanies each reinforcer and remains present well that contingency is in effect. The more powerful reinforcer is the one that produces the highest response rate. For example, when the therapist wears a green hat, skittles are delivered as the reinforcer. When the therapist wears a brown hat, chocolate is delivered as the reinforcer

Q

The most potent reinforcer in a concurrent schedule reinforcer assessment is the one associated with…
A. The stimuli most frequently chosen from an array
B. The schedule with the highest rate of the target behavior
C. The behavior or schedule with the highest number of responses
D. The behavior with the highest response rate

A

D
In a concurrent schedule reinforcer assessment, within the same session different stimuli are delivered contingent on the occurrence of different behaviors according to the same schedule of reinforcement (usually FR1). Thus, the most potent reinforcer is associated with the behaviors with the highest response rate.

Q

The most potent reinforcer/schedule combination in a multiple schedule reinforcer…
A. The thinnest schedule that maintains the behavior
B. The schedule with the highest rate of the target behavior
C. The behavior with the highest number of responses
D. The stimulus most frequently chosen from an array

A

B
In a multiple schedule reinforcer assessment, a reinforcer is delivered on different component schedules for the same behavior at different times. Thus, the more powerful reinforcer/schedule combination is the one associated with the highest response rate.

Q

A reinforcer assessment in which multiple reinforcers are simultaneously available for different behaviors on independent schedules of reinforcement defines a…
A. Concurrent schedule reinforcer assessment
B. Progressive ratio schedule reinforcer assessment

D. Multiple stimuli reinforcer assessment

Q

A stimulus may lose its reinforcing effectiveness win…
A. The effort needed to acquire that stimulus decreases
B. Less preferred reinforcers are available for other behaviors
C. The individual has recently had access to that stimulus
D. The individual has never been exposed to the stimulus

A

C

Q

The most potent reinforcer in a progressive ratio schedule reinforcer assessment is the one associated with…
A. The highest number of responses
B. The stimuli most frequently chosen from an array
C. The behavior or schedule with the highest response rate
D. The schedule with the highest rate of the target behavior

A

A
In a progressive ratio reinforcer assessment, different stimuli are delivered contingent on a progressive, or increasing, number of responses. Thus, the more potent reinforcer is the one that produces the highest number of responses before reaching a breaking point.

21
Q

A stimulus may lose its reinforcing effectiveness when…
A. The effort needed to acquire that stimulus increases
B. Less preferred stimuli are available for problem behaviors
C. The individual has recently had a little access to that stimulus
D. Less preferred reinforcers are available for other behaviors
