Q

Noncontingent Reinforcement (NCR)

A
  • AKA: time based stimulus delivery
  • the reinforcer is delivery “for free” based on the passage of time to satiate the clients desire for the reinforcer
  • stimulus delivered is linked to the function of the behavior
    • decrease the EO for attention/access/ escape/ sensory stimulation

Q

What makes NCR an effective antecedent intervention? (2)

A
  • they’re getting what the want for free

- it decreases the MO for the individual to engage in the target prob behavior to get the reinforcer

Q

environmental enrichment (3)

A
  • adding reinforcers to the environment prior to the occurrence of prob behavior
  • Decrease EO for the reinforcer (act as an abolishing operation)
  • decrease likelihood prob behavior will occur

Q

4 general strategies for task modification

A
  1. alter materials
  2. reduce effort required
  3. Make the demand more predictable
  4. deliver the demand at a diff time

Q

Stimulus Fading In (3)

A
  • demand initially presented at the lowest level of difficulty that does not cause prob behavior
    • ie a decrease in the duration and/or # of demands presented
  • as long as prob behavior remains low, the difficulty of the demand is slowly increased

Q

Extinction Procedures (4)

A
  • attention extinction
  • tangible extinction
  • escape extinction
  • extinction for automatically reinforced behavior
22
Q

sensory extinction procedure

A

when the prob behavior occurs, block or ‘mask’ the sensory stimulation that the behavior typically produces

23
Q

In extinction, reinforcement of previously reinforced response is …

A

withheld

24
Q

what is required to implement extinction

A

knowledge of the reinforcer and abiity to withhold the reinforcer

25
Q

differential reinforcement involves two components

A
  1. reinforcement for some responses

2. extinction (not reinforcing other responses)

26
Q

2 applications of differential reinforcement

Based on either…(4)

A

environmental stimulus conditions
-reinforced behavior under certain conditions and not other conditions
OR
-Behavior
-reinforced one behavior and not others

27
Q

Note on differentail reinforcement

A
  • might not always include extinction

- extinction might not be safe to use, depending on target behavior

28
Q

Other components of differential reinforcement could include… (2)

A
  • punishment

- less reinforcement

29
Q

4 differential reinforcement procedures

A
  • Differential reinforcement of other behavior (DRO)
  • Differential reinforcement of alternative behavior (DRA)
  • ….of incompatible behavior (DRI)
  • …of low rates of responding (DRL)
30
Q

DRO (2)

A
  • reinforcer delivered if prob behavior does NOT occur for a specific period of time
  • used to decrease rate of prob behavior `
31
Q

Things you need to know for implementation of DRO (3)

A
  • target behavior
  • reinforcer
  • DRO interval
32
Q

DRO interval

A

time period during which behavior needs to NOT occur

33
Q

Implementing DRO

Reinforcement is based upon…

A

the absence of problem behavior

34
Q

One catch with DRO

A

does not specify what the learner should be doing instead

35
Q

DRA (2)

A
  • only deliver reinforcement whenever an appropriate, alternative response occurs
  • used to decrease the rate of prob behavior and increase an appropriate, alternative behavior at the SAME TIME
36
Q

Things need to know for implementation of DRA (3)

A
  • target prob behavior
  • alternative behavior
  • reinforcer
37
Q

Catch with DRA (2)

A
  • the same reinforcer that maintains the problem behavior is now only delivered for the appropriate, alternative behavior
    • it competes with the prob behavior
38
Q

Functional Communication Training (FCT) (3)

A
  • type of DRA
  • communication response is taught to replace the problem behavior
  • only deliver the reinforcer whenever the communicative response occurs
39
Q

Type of communication responses taught in FCT (4)

A
  • sign language
  • picture exchange system
  • vocal language
  • voice output devices
40
Q

In a DRA procedure, the appropriate alternative behavior should always …

A

compete with the target problem behavior

41
Q

Differeintial reinforcement for incompatible behavior (2)

A
  • reinforcement delivered for a response that is physically incompatible w/the target prob behavior
  • used to decrease the rate of the problem
42
Q

Differential Reinforcement of Low Rates of Responding (DRL)(2)

A

-Reinforcement is delivered if the target behavior occurs at or below a specific number of times in a given time period

43
Q

DRL is used to…

A

decrease behaviors that are occurring too much

44
Q

Things need to know for implementaton of DRL (3)

A
  • target behavior
  • reinforcer
  • max number (criterion for reinforcement
45
Q

D-03

A

implement interventions based on modification of antecedents such as motivation/establishing operations and discriminatve stimuli

46
Q

D-04

A

implement differential reinforcement procedures

47
Q

the two processes typically involved in differential reinfrocement procedures

A
  • reinfrocement

- extinction

48
Q

interventions that manipulate events in the environment that occur before the behavior and alter those events to change behavior

A

antecedent interventions

49
Q

attention is withheld following an occurrence of problem behavior

A

attention extinction

50
Q

behavior reduction procedure in which the functional reinforcer is delivered if the problem behavior does not occur for a specific time period

A

DRO

51
Q

antecedent intervention in which the learner is allowed to pick various aspects of activities and tasks which can make the task more preferred or enjoyable

A

provide choice

52
Q

antecedent interventions help to prevent problem behavior by

A

using abolishing operations (AOs) to decrease the value of whatever reinforcer maintains the problem behavior
