Question 2

Three types of response prompts

Question 3

One type of chaining in which the steps (responses) of the skill are taught, one at a time, in reverse order (2 words)

Answer 3

Backward chaining

Question 4

A procedure used to teach a specific sequence of responses that results in a terminal outcome

Answer 4

Chaining

Question 5

Responding differently to different stimuli as the result of experience with these stimuli

Answer 5

Discrimination

Question 6

Training session during which responses are reinforced in the presence of a specific stimulus and not in the absence of that stimulus (2 words)

Answer 6

Discrimination training

Question 7

Chaining procedure in which the steps (responses) of the skill are taught, one at a time, in the same order as they naturally occur (2 words)

Answer 7

Forward chaining

Question 8

Physically guiding the learner to engage in the response (3 words)

Answer 8

Full physical prompt

Question 9

A stimulus prompt that involves the trainer gesturing to prompt the correct response (2 words)

Answer 9

Gestural prompt

Question 10

Providing physical guidance only as needed (moving in and out) throughout the task (2 words)

Answer 10

Graduated guidance

Question 11

Prompt fading-in procedure during which prompts are added only as needed (3 words)

Answer 11

Least-to-most

Question 12

Type of response prompt during which the desired response is demonstrated by another person (2 words)

Answer 12

Modeling prompt

Question 13

Type of prompt fading in which the prompt is immediately provided and then faded out as the learner responds correctly (3 words)

Answer 13

Most-to-least

fading out also acceptable

Question 14

Physically guiding the movements of a response, but with less “help” or physical contact than the full physical prompt (less invasive) (3 words)

Answer 14

Partial physical prompt

Question 15

A stimulus prompt that involves placing the item being taught closest to the student in relation to other items (2 words)

Answer 15

Position prompt

proximity prompt also acceptable

Question 16

An extra (supplementary) antecedent stimulus that is added to the environment to occasion a response

Answer 16

Prompt

Question 17

When a learner continues to require a prompt to initiate the response even though the learner has mastered the skill (2 words)

Answer 17

Prompt dependency

Question 18

Technique used to gradually transfer control from the prompt to naturally-occurring events in the learner’s environment (2 words)

Answer 18

Prompt fading

Question 19

A stimulus prompt that accentuates features (such as the size, shape, or color) of a stimulus to promote the correct response (4 words)

Answer 19

Redundancy of antecedent stimuli

Question 20

Type of prompt that operates directly on the response (2 words)

Answer 20

Response prompt

Question 21

One general type of discrimination training in which both the SD and SΔ stimulus conditions are presented to the learner at the same time (2 words)

Answer 21

Simultaneous discrimination

Question 22

Gestural (movement), position (proximity) and redundancy of antecedent stimuli are all _________ prompts.

Answer 22

Stimulus

Question 23

Demonstrated when an antecedent stimulus reliably exerts control over a response (2 words)

Answer 23

Stimulus control

Question 24

Gradually shifting the controlling antecedent for a response (3 words)

Answer 24

Stimulus control transfer

Question 25

Highlighting some aspect of the environment to increase the likelihood of a correct response (2 words)

Answer 25

Stimulus prompt

One general type of discrimination training in which only one antecedent (SD or SΔ) is presented to the learner in a given trial (2 words)

Answer 26

Successive discrimination

Question 27

Breaking down a skill into smaller sequential steps to produce a complex skill (2 words)

Answer 27

Task analysis (TA also acceptable)

Question 28

Prompt hierarchy typically used to ensure compliance with a request (4 words)

Answer 28

Three-step guided compliance

Question 29

A type of prompt fading procedure in which a pause is added between the instruction and when the prompt is delivered (2 words)

Answer 29

Time delay

Question 30

Chaining procedure in which all steps of the skills are trained, in order, in one learning trial (3 words)

Answer 30

Total task chaining

Question 31

Supplementary instructions or other words that promote the correct response (2 words)

Answer 31

Verbal prompt

Question 32

The purpose of this type of antecedent stimulus is to get the behavior going or prevent an incorrect response from occurring

Answer 32

Prompt
