4 characteristics of problem behavior

A

Minimizes achieving meaningful outcome

18
Q

3 limitations of the topography-based treatment model

A

Contingent relations are broken
Behavior did not maintain or generalize
Problem behavior hidden under tight stimulus control

19
Q

Function-based treatment model

A

Model for treating problem behavior based on the function

20
Q

Functional Communication Training (FCT)

A

An appropriate form of communications is taught to replace problem behavior

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

Mand Training

A

More specific words taught and results in a larger speaker repertoire

25
Q

3 strategies for promoting generalization in FCT

A

Incorporate multiple trainers and settings
Include like stimuli
Sequential modification

26
Q

Is out subject matter behavior alone?

A

No; includes operants, respondents, contingencies, functional relations

27
Q

Are the “functions of behavior” 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 change in relation to context

30
Q

Are we effective we only change behavior?

A

No; change real-world contingencies to achieve meaningful outcomes

31
Q

Functional relation

A

Manipulation of a stimulus produces a reliable and predictable change in a response

32
Q

4 characteristics of functional relations

A

Probabilistic
Nonlinear
Complex
Allows for predictions

33
Q

Functional relations are probabilistic

A

Not cause-and-effect or deterministic

34
Q

Functional relations are nonlinear

A

Compared to nonlinear in calculus

35
Q

Functional relations are complex

A

Functional relations change with respect to context

36
Q

Everyday usage of the term function

A

What an organism “does” and “why”

37
Q

Scientific usage of the term function

A

A mathematical relation between stimulus classes and response classes

38
Q

Problem with using the “everyday definition of function”

A

Practitioners use teleological explanations

39
Q

Contingency

A

One event depends on another

40
Q

Discriminative stimuli

A

Derive effects on behavior from a past history of differential availability with a consequence

41
Q

Motivating operations

A

Derive effects on behavior from their value-altering effect on consequences

42
Q

Last name of discriminative stimuli

A

Consequence leads to the development of that discriminative stimulus

43
Q

Last name of motivating operations

A

The consequence whose value is being altered
