Negative Reinforcement

A

Q

Automatic Reinforcement

A

Engaging in a behavior that feels good to the client , they aren’t looking for attention or to escape. This also occurs when the client is alone.

Q

Extinction

A

No longer reinforcing a behavior that was previously reinforced, upon this an extinction burst may happen which is a higher intensity of behaviors once this is first implemented

Q

Discriminative stimulus “SD”

A

Something that signals reinforcement is available, upon the presentation of a SD a response occurs. In the absence of an SD a response does not occur

Q

Chaining

A

Instructional procedure that reinforces individual responses in sequences. Forming complex behavior

21
Q

Forward Chaining

A

Starting with the first step of a behavior chain and ending with the last step

22
Q

Backwards Chaining

A

Staring with the last step of a behavior chain and ending with the first step.

23
Q

Total Task Chaining

A

The trainer provides the learner with prompts through all steps of the behavior chain, eventually fading so the learner can complete the behavior chain independently.

24
Q

Task Analysis

A

The product of breaking down a skill/ behavior/ task into different components.

25
Q

Generalization

A

When a behavior continues to occur across different stimuli, settings and people

26
Q

Verbal Behavior

A

Behavior that is socially mediated meaning there is a listener and a responder. Verbal behavior can include vocal behavior and non-vocal behavior

27
Q

Verbal Operant

A

Mand, Echoic, Tact and Intraverbal

28
Q

Intraverbal

A

Responding to someone else verbal behavior

29
Q

Echoic

A

Repeating what someone else says

30
Q

Mand

A

Demand or request

31
Q

Tact

A

Labeling

32
Q

Continuous Measurement

A

Data is collected every instance of behavior is tracked. You track every instance of the behavior

33
Q

Frequency

A

The number of times a behavior occurs

34
Q

Duration

A

The length of the behavior when it occurs

35
Q

Rate

A

The amount of times a behavior occurs within a specific time period

36
Q

Discontinuous Measurement

A

Where every instance of the behavior is not tracked

37
Q

Whole Interval Recording

A

A time sampling method to measure behavior in observation periods that is broken down into intervals ( 5-15 seconds ) at the end of the internal the recorder only records if the behavior occurred through the ENTIRE interval

38
Q

Partial Interval Recording

A

Time sampling method to measure behaviors in which it is broken down into intervals 5-10 seconds and the recorder only records if the behavior happened at any point of the interval.

39
Q

Momentary Time Sample

A

A measurement method in which the presence or absence of a behavior is recorded at a precise specified time

40
Q

Functional assessment

A

Discovers why the person acts the way they do

41
Q

NET

A

A protocol of instructions that is provided in the context of a natural environment. You can’t set up multiple trials like DTT.

42
Q

Conditioned Reinforcement

A

Teaching the client to like things that were not previously reinforcing, but through paring that something that was not fun now is fun / reinforcing

43
Q

Unconditioned Reinforcement

A

Something that is reinforced that was not learned. Basic needs aka food, water, sleep e.t.c

44
Q

Continuous Reinforcement

A

When a individual’s behavior is reinforced when a particular behavior occurs. This should be used during initial learning stages and later for strengthening of behaviors.

45
Q

Intermittent Reinforcement

A

A schedule of reinforcement where some occurrences of that behavior will be reinforced and other occurrences of that same behavior will not be reinforced.

46
Q

Fixed Ratio

A

After a FIXED amount of responses/trials reinforcement Is given

47
Q

Variable Ratio

A

After an AVERAGE number of responses reinforcement is given

48
Q

Fixed Interval

A

After a FIXED amount of TIME reinforcement is given

49
Q

Variable Interval

A

After a AVERAGE amount of TIME reinforcement is given.
