Reinforcer sampling involves

Noncontingent exposure to a variety of novel stimuli or activities for a brief period.

The reinforcing efficacy of a particular item can be determined using which of the following procedures?

Deliver the item contingently under one condition but not another, then reverse the conditions to see if responding changes accordingly.

When conducting a behavior assessment, the learner's skill repertoire is assessed to

Identify potential replacement behaviors from the learner's repertoire.

In a contrived free operant observation to identify reinforcers,

The environment is salted with a variety of potential reinforcers and an observer records duration of engagement with each one.

The availability of reinforcers can be enhanced by

Using conditioning procedures to establish secondary reinforcers.

Reinforcer identification via naturalistic direct observation involves

Identifying high probability behaviors which may be used as reinforcers. Observing the student in the natural environment. Recording duration of engagement with various environmental stimuli.

Using direct observation, you conclude that TV is likely to be a reinforcer. You may have

Found that watching TV was the longest duration activity.

When conducting a behavior assessment, the learner's skill repertoire is assessed to

Identify areas of strength and weakness in the learner's repertoire. Determine whether a learner's behavior problem is related to a skill deficit. Determine whether a skill could be developed to reduce the MO related to problem behavior. Identify potential replacement behaviors.

A student is referred for pants wetting... to begin you assess the student's ability to

Open the bathroom door. Remove coat and gloves to use the bathroom. Locate the bathrooms accessible from the playground.

One might conclude that a stimulus is a reinforcer if its contingent presentation is compared to that of a known reinforcer and

The stimulus produced a response pattern similar to that of the known reinforcer.

When a person is free to do anything they like, the behavior they engage in the most

May be used to reinforce low-probability behavior.

If food reinforcers are to be used in an individual's reinforcement program, they should be

During sessions that take place before meals.

Interview and paper and pencil instruments for assessing reinforcers.

All the above: Are less valid than systematic manipulations. Are less time consuming relative to systematic manipulations. Include scales, surveys, inventories, and checklists.
