Q

What is NET? Name several aspects of this.

A

NET focuses on letting the child take the lead while learning new skills in an environment they are in every day.

NET uses the principles of ABA to teach skills in an environment the child is familiar with. It is individualized for each child based on the activities they do every day.

NET is a less structured teaching style.

NET can take place anywhere—at home, school, or out in the community.

The important thing is that teaching takes place in an environment that the child is familiar with

Q

What is DTT? Name several aspects of this.

A

DTT is a structured ABA technique that breaks down skills into small, “discrete” components. Systematically, the trainer teaches these skills one by one. Along the way, trainers use tangible reinforcements for desired behavior.

Q

What is imitation?

A

Imitation refers to the emission of a behavior that is topographically similar and temporally proximal to the behavior of a model. In other words, Imitation means “to mimic another person’s behavior”. Infants and children absorb vast amount of information through the imitation of others.

Q

Why are social programs important in ABA?

A

ABA therapy emphasizes teaching and developing social skills for children with autism, utilizing a set of techniques and procedures based on the science of behavior analysis. This methodology is designed to improve a variety of skills related to social play, social language, and social intuition.

Q

What is positive reinforcement?

A

A functional relation that occurs when a response is followed by the presentation (addition) of a stimulus and, as a result, the behavior occurs more frequently in the future

Q

What is negative reinforcement?

A

A functional relation that exists when a response is followed by the removal of an aversive stimulus and, as a result, the future frequency of that response increases

21
Q

Give an example of negative reinforcement.

A

A mosquito be me on the arm. Now it itches! It feels better when I scratch it. Then a minute later it would itch again, so I scratch again.

A failing grade is removed when a student turns in the missing homework

22
Q

What is positive punishment?

A

A type of punishment where the stimulus change involves the presentation of a stimulus immediately following a response that decreases future frequency of behavior

23
Q

Give and example of positive punishment.

A

Adding chores and responsibilities when a child fails to follow the rules

Adding extra sensitivity training to employees who offend or harass someone at work.

24
Q

What is negative punishment?

A

A type of punishment where the stimulus change involves termination of an already present stimulus immediately following a response that decreases future frequency of behavior

25
Q

Give an example of negative punishment.

A

Taking away a student’s recess privilege to stop their disruption

Taking away a teenager’s phone to stop the bad attitude

26
Q

What is extinction?

A

All occurrences of a behavior result in reinforcer being withheld (none result in reinforcement)

27
Q

What is ABC recording?

A

A form of direct, continuous observation in which the observer records a descriptive, temporally sequenced account of all behavior(s) of interest and the antecedent conditions and consequences for those behaviors as those events occur in the client’s natural environment.

28
Q

Define antecedent.

A

environmental conditions or stimulus changes that exist or occur prior to the behavior of interest

29
Q

Define consequence.

A

a stimulus change that follows a behavior of interest

30
Q

List the four functions of behavior.

A

S.E.A.T.: Sensory, Escape, Attention, Tangibles (access to)

31
Q

What is satiation?

A

An abolishing operation in which the individual has engaged in some sort of behavior that temporarily decreased the value of a consequence as a reinforcer and temporarily makes the person less likely to engage in behaviors to access that consequence.

32
Q

What is deprivation?

A

Deprivation occurs when an individual has been without a desired item or activity for an extended period of time. The value of that item or activity increases to the individual due to the lack of exposure.

33
Q

What is motivation?

A

Motivating operations (MOs) are events that either encourage or prevent a certain behavior. An MO is essentially the desire that drives a specific action

34
Q

What is DRO?

A

Differential reinforcement of zero rates (DRO). A procedure in which the practitioner reinforces whenever the problem behavior has not occurred during or at specific times. Procedural variations include interval and momentary schedules. Also referred to as omission training.

35
Q

What is DRA?

A

Differential reinforcement of alternative behavior (DRA).A procedure in which the practitioner reinforces occurrences of a behavior that provides a desirable and functionally-equivalent alternative to the problem behavior but is not necessarily incompatible with it and withholds reinforcement following instances of the problem behavior.

36
Q

What is DRI?

A

Differential reinforcement of incompatible behavior (DRI). A procedure in which the practitioner reinforces a behavior that can not occur simultaneously with the problem behavior and withholds reinforcement following instances of the problem behavior.

37
Q

What is a fixed ratio schedule?

A

A schedule of reinforcement that requires a fixed number of responses to be completed before a response produces reinforcement.

38
Q

What is a fixed interval schedule?

A

A schedule of reinforcement in which the reinforcer is delivered for the first response emitted following the passage of a fixed duration of time since the last response was reinforced.

39
Q

What is a variable ratio schedule?

A

A schedule of reinforcement that requires a variable number of responses to be completed before a response produces reinforcement.

40
Q

What is a variable interval schedule?

A

A schedule of reinforcement in which reinforcement is delivered for the first response emitted following the passage of a variable duration of time since the last response was reinforced.

41
Q

Continuous measurement examples:

A

,Frequency, duration, rate, latency, interresponse time (IRT), Permanent product recording

42
Q

Continuous measurement is used for:

A

Low rates of behavior

43
Q

Discontinuous measurement is used for:

A

Hight rates of behavior

44
Q

Examples of discontinuous measurement include:

A

Partial-interval recording, whole-interval recording, momentary time sampling

45
Q

What is a stimulus prompt?

A

A prompt that operates directly on the antecedent stimuli to cue a correct response.

46
Q

What is a chaining procedure?

A

A specific sequence of discrete responses, each associated with a particular stimulus condition. When linked together, the result is a behavior change that produces a terminal outcome. Three types: forward, backward and total task.

47
Q

Examples of chaining procedures we use:

A

A specific sequence of discrete responses, each associated with a particular stimulus condition. When linked together, the result is a behavior change that produces a terminal outcome. Three types: forward, backward and total task.

48
Q

What is shaping?

A

The process of differentially reinforcing successive approximations toward a terminal behavior.

49
Q

What is Hector’s favorite food?

A

Hmm..?
