Two items are presented until each stimulus has been compared to each of the other stimuli.
A. Paired stimuli method
B. Multiple stimuli with replacement method
C. Single stimulus method
D. Multiple stimuli without replacement method
A
A reinforcer assessment…
A. Is unnecessary when preference assessment results are unambiguous
B. Is synonymous with a preference assessment
C. Determines which behaviors are maintained by natural reinforcement
D. Can determine which preferences can function as reinforcers for targeted behaviors
D
In which multiple stimuli presentation method does the individual choose from an array of the same number of stimuli each time? Multiple stimuli __________ replacement
with
Synonymous to the paired stimuli presentation method is the _______ _______ method.
Forced choice
Three or more stimuli are presented to an individual. The one that is chosen is recorded. The teacher is using the… A. Multiple stimuli presentation method B. Free operant assessment C. Forced choice method D. Single stimulus method
A
A preference assessment…
A. And a reinforcer assessment are synonymous terms
B. Yields potential reinforcers while a reinforcer assessment evaluates actual reinforcer effectiveness
C. Eliminates the need to control the MO
D. Yields an assessment of preferences that are not reinforcers
B
Multiple stimuli and activities are simultaneously available and the therapist records the students duration of engagement with each item or activity. A. Single stimulus presentation method B. Free operant assessment C. Forced choice method D. Multiple stimuli presentation method
B
Which preference assessment uses the total duration of engagement with stimuli or activities?
free operant assessment
Stimuli are presented in pairs and the stimulus chosen is recorded. Trials are repeated until each stimulus has been compared to each of the other stimuli. A. Free operant assessment B. Single stimulus method C. Multiple stimuli presentation method D. Forced choice method
D
A stimulus preference assessment in which a range of stimuli affecting the individual sensory systems is offered individually in random order and the reaction to each stimulus is recorded. A. Single stimulus method B. Forced choice method C. Multiple stimuli method D. Free operant assessment
A
Two stimuli are presented and the one chosen is recorded. This describes the forest choice method or ______ ________ presentation method.
paired stimuli
A reinforcer assessment in which reinforcers are available simultaneously on separate schedules and the number of responses required to earn the reinforcer systematically increases over consecutive stages of the assessment.
A. Paired stimuli concurrent schedule reinforcer assessment
B. Progressive ratio concurrent schedule reinforcer assessment
C. Multiple stimuli concurrent schedule reinforcer assessment
D. Multiple ratio reinforcer assessment
B
A stimulus may lose its reinforcing effectiveness when…
A. The effort needed to acquire the stimulus decreases
B. The individual has recently had limited access to the stimulus
C. The individual has recently had a little access to the stimulus
D. More highly preferred stimuli are available for other behaviors
D
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
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
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
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.
