Q

Contingent relations not broken Bx did not maintain or generalizeProblem bx hidden under tight stimulus control

A

3 limitations of the topography-based treatment model

19
Q

Model for treating problem bx based on the function

A

Function-based treatment model

20
Q

An appropriate form of communication is taught to replace problem bx

A

Functional Communication Training (FCT)

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 & settingsInclude like stimuliSequential 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
