Q

Skinner was more concerned about the form of language than function.

A

FALSE

Q

The 4 basic schedules of intermittent reinforcement are: Fixed interval; fixed variable, variable interval and fixed ratio.

A

FALSE

30
Q

When conducting punisher assessments, it is recommended to use the smallest intensity of the punisher, but that is still effective

A

TRUE

31
Q

If FBA results indicate that the client does not posses the target behavior or skill in his/her repertoire, the behavior analyst should then maintain this needed target behavior or skill.

A

FALSE

32
Q

Functional equivalence is defined by the intervention matching the function of the behavior.

A

TRUE

33
Q

The advantages of a scatter plot are that they identify time periods when the problem behavior occurs and can be useful for pinpointing periods of the day when more focused ABC assessments can be conducted.

A

TRUE

34
Q

ABC narrative recording is more time consuming than ABC continuous recording.

A

FALSE

35
Q

A parametric analysis is when the IV is either present or absent during the study.

A

FALSE

36
Q

ABA views behavioral variability as being intrinsic to the organism.

A

FALSE

37
Q

The reversal design is the most widely used design for evaluating treatment effects in ABA.

A

FALSE

38
Q

Single-subject designs can be utilized with more than one subject.

A

TRUE

39
Q

A component analysis looks at the effect of each part of a treatment package.

A

TRUE

40
Q

A disadvantage to the alternating treatments design is irreversibility.

A

FALSE

41
Q

Accuracy and rate are essential dimensions to validity.

A

TRUE

42
Q

One of the main disadvantages of momentary time sampling is that much of the behavior of interest is missed or unaccounted. To prevent this, you should keep the intervals short and observe the target behavior frequently.

A

TRUE

43
Q

If your client’s target behavior results in a tangible product, you should use event recording.

A

FALSE

44
Q

Do not use event recording when behaviors occur at very high rates.

A

TRUE

45
Q

Planned Activity Check is a variation of partial interval recording in which a teacher observes a group of students at the end of each interval, counts the number of students engaged in the targeted activity, and records the tally with the total number of students in the group.

A

FALSE

46
Q

If you are using permanent product to measure behavior, the permanent product can only be produced by the target behavior.

A

TRUE

47
Q

It is not recommended to use whole interval recording procedures when you want to increase behaviors.

A

FALSE

48
Q

For continuous behaviors, you should use discontinuous measurement procedure.

A

TRUE

49
Q

Response latency is the amount of time that elapses between 2 consecutive instances of a response class.

A

FALSE

50
Q

Accuracy and rate are essential dimensions to limited holds.

A

TRUE

51
Q

An imitative behavior does not need to immediately follow the model.

A

FALSE

52
Q

When using high-probability request sequence, behaviors you select have to already be in the individual’s behavioral repertoire.

A

TRUE

53
Q

The definition of self-management requires the desired change in behavior.

A

TRUE

54
Q

Forward chaining is easy, so teachers are likely to use it in the classroom.

A

TRUE

55
Q

Modeling is the behavior of imitating the stimulus and imitation is the antecedent stimulus.

A

FALSE

56
Q

Contingency contracting is a procedure in which a contract is developed collaboratively that stipulates a certain contingency for an individual between a behavior and a reinforcer.

A

TRUE

57
Q

Each response in a chain has dual function, except for the first response.

A

FALSE

58
Q

Shaping teaches new response classes.

A

TRUE

59
Q

NCR is an antecedent intervention that involves providing stimuli with known reinforcing properties on a fixed-time (FT) or variable-time (VT) schedule dependent on the individual’s behavior.

A

FALSE

60
Q

The single opportunity method of assessing task analyses reduces the likelihood of learning taking place during assessment.

A

TRUE

61
Q

The two types of shaping methods are: a) shaping across stimulus topographies and b) shaping within stimulus topographies.

A

FALSE

62
Q

FCT is a strategy that teaches individuals ways to functionally communicate to compete with challenging behaviors evoked by AOs.

A

FALSE

63
Q

The single opportunity method of assessing task analyses is more conservative than the multiple opportunity method.

A

TRUE

64
Q

Tokens are examples of generalized conditioned reinforcers.

A

TRUE

Q

You should not allow a learner to ask questions while you provide performance feedback.

A

FALSE

66
Q

If you want to observe accurate staff performance, you should do so covertly to reduce reactivity.

A

FALSE

67
Q

When challenging behavior occurs in an environment with limited meaningful activities, the environment needs to be enriched.

A

TRUE

68
Q

You can only conduct research after you have been approved by an independent, formal research review board.

A

TRUE
