DTT Flashcards
discrete trial
learning trial of Sd, prompt (if needed), response (behavior), consequence/reinforcement
What is DTT?
structured technique that breaks down behavior into discrete steps called a single teaching unit or learning trial. a way of teaching skills one by one
Discriminative Stimulus
antecedent stimulus (comes before the behavior) that tells your kid what response will gain reinforcement
Prompt
Supplementary Antecedent stimuli that are used to evoke a desired response. Provided before or during a response
Discrimination Training
Reinforcing a behavior or response in the presence of one stimuli and not the other
Stimulus Control Transfer
technique in which prompts are discontinued once the target behavior is displayed in the presence of the discriminative stimulus. Prompt Fading
Most-to-least Prompting
Begins with a prompt known to reliably evoke the behavior and gradually proceeds to less instrusive prompts
Errorless Learning
Designed to prevent learner errors using most-to-least prompting and fading methods
Least-to-most prompting
prompting begins with minimal cues that systematically and gradually increase in intrusiveness until resulting in the correct response
