1) Reinforcement

2) Extinction

Question 2

Interventions that manipulate events in the environment that occur before the behavior and alter those events to change behavior (2 words)

Answer 2

Antecedent interventions

Question 3

Attention is withheld following an occurrence of problem behavior (2 words)

Answer 3

Attention extinction

Question 4

Behavior reduction procedure in which the functional reinforcer is delivered for an appropriate alternative response to the target problem behavior

Answer 4

DRA

Question 5

Behavior reduction procedure in which the functional reinforcer is delivered for a response that is physically incompatible with the target problem behavior

Answer 5

DRI

Question 6

Behavior reduction procedure in which the functional reinforcer is delivered if the target behavior occurs at or below a specific number of times in a given time period

Answer 6

DRL

Question 7

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

Answer 7

DRO

Question 8

Antecedent intervention that involves adding reinforcers to the environment prior to the occurrence of problem behavior (2 words)

Answer 8

Environmental enrichment

Question 9

Behavior reduction procedure that consists of withholding escape (2 words)

Answer 9

Escape extinction

Question 10

When implementing this procedure, the functional reinforcer must be withheld every time the behavior occurs

Answer 10

Extinction (EXT also acceptable)

Question 11

A type of DRA where a communication response is taught to replace the problem behavior

Answer 11

FCT

Question 12

A common antecedent intervention in which several high-probability (high-preference) requests are presented immediately before a low-probability (low-preference) request (4 words)

Answer 12

High-probability instructional sequence

Question 13

Antecedent intervention in which the reinforcer is delivered based only on the passage of time, regardless of behavior (2 words)

Answer 13

Noncontingent reinforcement (NCR also acceptable)

Question 14

An 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 (2 words)

Answer 14

Provide choice

Question 15

Behavior reduction procedure that consists of blocking or “masking” the sensory stimulation that the behavior typically produces (2 words)

Answer 15

Sensory extinction

Question 16

Antecedent intervention in which the demand is initially presented at the lowest level of difficulty that does not cause problem behavior and then made more difficult (3 words)

Answer 16

Stimulus fading in

Question 17

Behavior reduction procedure that consists of withholding access to a preferred item or activity (2 words)

Answer 17

Tangible extinction

Question 18

Antecedent intervention that consists of altering the demand to make it less aversive (2 words)

Answer 18

Task modification

Question 19

Target behavior(s), replacement behavior(s), intervention descriptions, persons responsible, and emergency procedures are all components of a (3 words)

Answer 19

Behavior reduction plan

Question 20

Behavior that poses immediate and significant danger to the client or others (2 words)

Answer 20

Behavioral emergency

Question 21

Procedures used when behavior poses an immediate and significant risk to maintain the safety of all individuals involved (2 words)

Answer 21

Emergency procedures

Question 22

Idea/rule that for every behavior that is targeted to reduction, at least one functionally equivalent behavior should be targeted for increase (2 words)

Answer 22

Fair-pair

Question 23

Alternative responses to the target behavior that are non-destructive and functional (2 words)

Answer 23

Replacement behavior
