G22 Use Procedures to Promote Maintenance Flashcards
Providing delayed rewards is a method of response maintenance that works by
All the above:
Delivering reinforcement for some responses but not others.
Hiding from the individual which behaviors will be reinforced and when.
Removing stimuli that would indicate which responses will be reinforced.
To facilitate the transition from continuous schedules of reinforcement used in training to the intermittent schedules that will support the behavior in the natural setting, you should
All the above: Use a progressive ratio schedule. Gradually transition to less preferred reinforcers. Thin the schedule gradually. Thin the ratio schedule gradually
Natural contingencies
Produce reinforcers in the post-intervention environment.
Involve the relation between behavior and its consequences outside of training.
Which exemplifies a natural contingency?
Following social skills training, a child asserts himself with a teasing peer and the peer backs down.
A child gets a cookie from his mother when he signs for it immediately after walking in the door.
For a behavior to come under the control of natural contingencies, it must
Contact reinforcement by occurring at a sufficient strength
Maintenance of operant behavior
All the above:
Can only be evaluated if at least part of the intervention is withdrawn.
Involves continuance of treatment effects.
Generally requires continued reinforcement of target behavior
Using delayed rewards to maintain responding in the natural environment following training involves
Reinforcing immediately at first and then gradually increase the delay.
Specifying which behavior earned the reward when it is delivered.
Using continuous reinforcement during the acquisition phase.
To maintain a newly acquired behavior after training, ensure that
The behavior continues to be reinforced in the natural environment on the current or most recent schedule used in training
To maintain newley aquired behavior after training ensure that
behaviors continues to be reinforced in the natrual enviornment on the most current and resent schedule during training
so
if the most schudule used during training was a CSF use that or
it could lead to EXTinction of the new behavior
