verbal prompt

A

hints, instructions, commands or other spoken words used to guide or direct behavior
- modeling prompt
- effective because people have a history of reinforcement for following instructions and develop generalized instruction following repertoire
- instructions have stimulus control over instruction-following behavior

Q

stimulus prompt

A
  • S^D is changed (within stimulus) or stimulus is added (extra-stimulus) or removed to encourage target behavior
  • change S^D or S-delta that makes S^D more salient and S-delta less salient so person is more likely to respond to S^D

Q

stimulus control

A

prompts are faded, reduced or eliminated so that target behavior occurs to the normal S^D alone, behavior continues to be reinforced
- prompting and fading help establish

Q

fading

A

gradual elimination of prompting as the behavior continues to occur in presence of S^D so that eventually it is no longer needed
- transferred from prompts to S^D

17
Q

response prompt fading

A
  • prompt fading
    response prompt is gradually lessened
18
Q

fading within prompt

A

same prompt used but is decreased in magnitude
- Berkowitz: physical prompting and fading within prompt to teach boys with profound intellectual disabilities to eat with a spoon

19
Q

fading across prompts

A

prompt is changed according to prompting hierarchy
- most to least prompting and fading
- least to most prompting and fading

20
Q

most to least prompting and fading

A
  • decreasing assistance
  • prompts change from more intrusive to less intrusive
    (physical guidance - modeling - gestural - verbal)
  • teaching a skill and person likely needs physical guidance prompt
21
Q

least to most prompting and fading

A
  • increasing assistance
  • system of least prompts
  • prompts change from less to more intrusive until behavior is performed
  • learned the skill and may not need physical guidance prompt
22
Q

graduated guidance

A

used in fading physical guidance prompts, teacher provides as much physical guidance as required then gradually reduces it
- pressure/contact may be reduced

23
Q

shadowing

A

teacher’s hand follows learner’s movement without contact

24
Q

spatial fading

A

focus on guidance changes from fingers, to hand, to wrist, to elbow
- teacher’s hand contact

25
Q

stimulus prompt fading

A
  • stimulus fading
    stimulus prompt is decreased in magnitude or freq
  • transfer stimulus control to natural S^D
  • stimulus prompt involves a change in some aspect of S^D
26
Q

prompt delay

A

present S^D, wait a certain number of secs and if target behavior does not occur, provide the prompt
- time delay may be constant or progressive
- typically used only with response prompts

27
Q

Cuvo and Klatt

A
  • taught adolescents with disabilities to read common words that they would encounter in everyday life
  • used constant prompt delay procedure
  • verbal prompt
28
Q

Matson et al.

A
  • progressive or graduated prompt delay procedure to teach children with autism to make appropriate social responses
  • verbal and modeling prompt
29
Q

how to use prompting and transfer of stimulus control

A
  • choose most appropriate prompting strategy
  • get learner’s attention
  • always present S^D - learning trial starts with S^D presented
  • prompt correct response if S^D does not evoke it
  • reinforce correct behavior
  • transfer stimulus control - prompts eliminated
  • continue to reinforce unprompted responses
30
Q

transfer of stimulus control

A

prompts are removed once the target behavior is occurring in presence of S^D
- prompt fading, prompt delay, and stimulus fading

31
Q

types of response prompts

A
  • verbal
  • gestural
  • modeling
  • physical
32
Q

types of stimulus prompts

A
  • within-stimulus
  • extrastimulus
33
Q

prompting and transfer of stimulus control in autism

A
  • often receive early intensive behavioral intervention to teach important academic skills
  • develop same skills as their peers and achieve success
  • advanced skills are built off of basic skills
34
Q

learning trial

A

sequence of presenting S^D, prompting response and providing reinforcer
- repeat learning trial and subsequent provide less physical prompting until independent

35
Q

verbal behavior

A

behavior is reinforced by listener as opposed to nonverbal behavior that is reinforced by changes in physical environment
- EIBI important component
- Skinner- used verbal operants

36
Q

verbal operants

A

verbal response that is defiend by types of antecedents and consequences that control its occurrence
- echoic, mand, tact, intraverbal
- echoic repertoire valuable when training the other verbal operants

37
Q

echoic

A

child imitates or echoes verbal response of another person and receives or other social reinforcement
- ABC
antecedent: word or word sound that is spoken by another person
behavior: child repeats the word
consequence: child gets praise/ nonspecific reinforers

38
Q

mand

A

particular thing functions as a reinforcer
- child asks for it and gets it from someone as a reinforcer
antecedent: EO is present that makes something a reinforcer
behavior: child engages in verbal response
consequence: child gets specific reinforcer- thing identified by verbal response

39
Q

Sundberg and Michael

A

referred to reinforcer for the mand as a specific reinforcer because verbal response specifies reinforcer

40
Q

tact

A
  • occurs when something is present in environment, child names it and child gets praise other nonspecific reinforcers
  • nonverbal stimulus could be detected through any senses as an antecedent and then naming it results in nonspecific reinforcer

antecedent: nonverbal stimulus
behavior: child makes verbal response that names it
consequence: child gets praise

41
Q

intraverbal

A
  • occurs when someone says something, child makes a verbal response to what the other persons says and child gets praise
    antecedent: someone says something
    behavior: child engages in some verbal response other than repeating what was said
    consequence: child gets praise
42
Q

multiple control

A

occurrence might be evoked by more than one antecedent or reinforced by more than one consequence
