21
Q

FCT – Stage 1

A

Conduct a functional assessment or analysis

22
Q

FCT – Stage 2

A

Train and differentially reinforce a

communicative response

23
Q

FCT – Stage 3

A

Transfer control to real-life settings and

persons

24
Q

More specific words taught and results in a

larger speaker repertoire

A

Mand training

25
Q

Incorporate multiple trainers & settings
Include like stimuli
Sequential modification

A

3 strategies for promoting generalization in

FCT

26
Q

Is our subject matter bx alone?

A

No; includes operants, respondents,

contingencies, functional relations

27
Q

Are the “functions of bx” only “attention,
tangibles, escape, and automatic
reinforcement”?

A

No; typical statements about “function” are

oversimplifications

28
Q

Should antecedents have only a first name?

A

No; antecedents only exist in relation to

consequences (last name)

29
Q

Can we neglect context?

A

No; behavior changes in relation to context

30
Q

Are we effective if we only change behavior?

A

No; change real-world contingencies to

achieve meaningful outcomes

31
Q

Manipulation of a stimulus produces a

reliable & predictable change in a response

A

Functional relation

32
Q

Probabilistic
Nonlinear
Complex
Allows for predictions

A

4 characteristics of functional relations

33
Q

Not cause-and-effect or deterministic

A

Functional relations are probabilistic

34
Q

Compared to nonlinear equations in calculus

A

Functional relations are nonlinear

35
Q

Functional relations change with respect to

context

A

Functional relations are complex

36
Q

What an organism “does” and “why”

A

Everyday usage of the term function

37
Q

A mathematical relation between stimulus

classes and response classes

A

Scientific usage of the term function

38
Q

Problem with using the “everyday definition

of function”

A

Practitioners use teleological explanations

39
Q

One event depends on another

A

Contingency

40
Q

Derive effects on bx from a past history of

differential availability with a consequence

A

Discriminative stimuli

41
Q

Derive effects on bx from their value-altering

effect on consequences

A

Motivating operations

42
Q

Consequence leads to the development of

that discriminative stimulus

A

Last name of discriminative stimuli

43
Q

The consequence whose value is being

altered

A

Last name of motivating operations

44
Q

Behavior modification was a general term for

A

Working in all types of target behavior

45
Q

Behavior management refers to

A

Working on the problem behavior

46
Q

Potential problems with DRO

A

DRO Does not reinforce alternative appropriate behavior

DRO Is a punishment based procedure

DRO Is a procedure to reinforce dead person behavior

47
Q

General term for procedures for treating problem behavior

A

Decelerative procedures
Contingency breaking procedures
Replacement procedures

48
Q

And evidence-based practice shown to reduce problem behavior by replacing it with an appropriate communication that is reinforced with the same consequence that maintains problem behavior

A

FCT

49
Q

The effects of antecedents are dependent upon the relation to

A

Consequences

50
Q

The pioneers of ABA used the methods of EAb to

A

Figure out what to do and evaluate the effectiveness of their procedures

51
Q

When implementing FCT as outlined by tiger Hanley and Bruzek

A

Problem behavior should be placed on extinction, choose an alternative response for problem behavior that results in the same reinforcer that maintains the problem behavior, choose an alternative response for problem behavior that is recognizable form of communication

52
Q

In behavioral analysis functional relations are between

A

Stimulus classes and response classes
