RBT Module 9 Flashcards
Two main problems with behavior
4 words
1) Skill deficits (can’t do also acceptable)
2) Motivational issue (won’t do also acceptable)
Three types of response prompts
1) Verbal
2) Modeling
3) Physical
One type of chaining in which the steps (responses) of the skill are taught, one at a time, in reverse order (2 words)
Backward chaining
A procedure used to teach a specific sequence of responses that results in a terminal outcome
Chaining
Responding differently to different stimuli as the result of experience with these stimuli
Discrimination
Training session during which responses are reinforced in the presence of a specific stimulus and not in the absence of that stimulus (2 words)
Discrimination training
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)
Forward chaining
Physically guiding the learner to engage in the response (3 words)
Full physical prompt
A stimulus prompt that involves the trainer gesturing to prompt the correct response (2 words)
Gestural prompt
Providing physical guidance only as needed (moving in and out) throughout the task (2 words)
Graduated guidance
Prompt fading-in procedure during which prompts are added only as needed (3 words)
Least-to-most
Type of response prompt during which the desired response is demonstrated by another person (2 words)
Modeling prompt
Type of prompt fading in which the prompt is immediately provided and then faded out as the learner responds correctly (3 words)
Most-to-least
fading out also acceptable
Physically guiding the movements of a response, but with less “help” or physical contact than the full physical prompt (less invasive) (3 words)
Partial physical prompt
A stimulus prompt that involves placing the item being taught closest to the student in relation to other items (2 words)
Position prompt
proximity prompt also acceptable
An extra (supplementary) antecedent stimulus that is added to the environment to occasion a response
Prompt
When a learner continues to require a prompt to initiate the response even though the learner has mastered the skill (2 words)
Prompt dependency
Technique used to gradually transfer control from the prompt to naturally-occurring events in the learner’s environment (2 words)
Prompt fading
A stimulus prompt that accentuates features (such as the size, shape, or color) of a stimulus to promote the correct response (4 words)
Redundancy of antecedent stimuli
Type of prompt that operates directly on the response (2 words)
Response prompt
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)
Simultaneous discrimination
Gestural (movement), position (proximity) and redundancy of antecedent stimuli are all _________ prompts.
Stimulus
Demonstrated when an antecedent stimulus reliably exerts control over a response (2 words)
Stimulus control
Gradually shifting the controlling antecedent for a response (3 words)
Stimulus control transfer
Highlighting some aspect of the environment to increase the likelihood of a correct response (2 words)
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)
Successive discrimination
Breaking down a skill into smaller sequential steps to produce a complex skill (2 words)
Task analysis (TA also acceptable)
Prompt hierarchy typically used to ensure compliance with a request (4 words)
Three-step guided compliance
A type of prompt fading procedure in which a pause is added between the instruction and when the prompt is delivered (2 words)
Time delay
Chaining procedure in which all steps of the skills are trained, in order, in one learning trial (3 words)
Total task chaining
Supplementary instructions or other words that promote the correct response (2 words)
Verbal prompt
The purpose of this type of antecedent stimulus is to get the behavior going or prevent an incorrect response from occurring
