Unit 2 Flashcards
Process that consist of reinforcement and
extinction that may result in either
differentiation or discrimination.
DIfferential Reinforcement
Reinforcement
Extinction
2 operations of Differential Reinforcement
Results when differential reinforcement
consists of reinforcing one response while
placing a second response on extinction.
Differentiation
Results when differential reinforcement
consists of reinforcing a response when
certain stimuli are present and not reinforcing
the same response when those stimuli are
not present.
Discrimination
Both the SD and SΔ stimulus conditions are
presented to the learner at the same time
Simultaneous Discrimination Training
Only one antecedent (SD or SΔ) is presented
to the learner in a given trial
Successive Discrimination Training
Reinforce a response in the presence of a
stimulus, but not in the absence of that
stimulus
Discrimination Training
A situation in which the frequency, latency,
duration, or amplitude of a behavior is
altered by the presence or absence of an
antecedent stimulus
Stimulus Control
Discrimination training results in:
Stimulus Control
An antecedent stimulus that evokes the
imitative behavior
Model
Prearranged antecedent stimuli that facilitate
new skills
Planned Models
All antecedent stimuli with the capacity to
evoke imitation
Unplanned Models
Teaching the learner to imitate or do exactly
what the person providing the models is
doing
Imitation Training
Fine motor
Gross motor
Object imitation
Types of Imitation
An antecedent manipulation in which 2-5 easy/known tasks are presented in quick succession immediately prior to a difficult/ high effort task or a response that is relatively infrequent
High Probability Request Sequence
Following directions or complying with
requests of others
Listener Responding
The parts of items and descriptions of items
Feature
The actions that typically go with the items or what one does with the items and classes
Function
The group(s) the items belong
Class
Procedure in which the prompt is provided
right away.
Errorless Teaching
Different reinforcers are provided in a
discrimination task each of which is
correlated with a given stimulus.
Differential Outcomes Proceedure
Differential outcomes can be effective in…
Difficult Discrimination Tasks
Antecedents are presented; teacher waits for
the learner to respond, learner responds,
and teacher provides consequence
contingent on the learner’s response
Discrete trial teaching
An antecedent stimulus that sets the occasion for the learner’s response A response by the learner A teacher provided consequence for the learner’s response
Components of a Discrete Trial
Programming mastered items or tasks in
between acquisition trials during discrete trial
instruction
Task Intrapersonal
One or more cues occur or motivating operations are captured in a naturally- occurring situation. Naturally-occurring consequences are delivered contingent on learner’s response.
Incidental Teaching
Taking advantage of a teaching situation that
arises without warning in the natural setting
Capturing
Setting up a pre-arranged teaching
opportunity
Contriving
DTT often results in:
Rapid rate of acquisition
IT/ NET often results in :
Stimulus Generalization and Induction
