Q

Increased responding in settings

uncorrelated with EXT

A

Behavior Contrast

19
Q

Random re-occurrence of previously

reinforced bx

A

Spontaneous Recovery

20
Q

3 strategies to minimize unwanted effects of EXT

A

Combine with other procedures
Switch to CRF schedule for problem bx
Identify response class hierarchies

21
Q

3 strategies for mitigating unwanted effects of EXT

A

Inform caregivers of unwanted effects
Provide caregivers with procedures
Withhold reinforcer if spontaneous recovery
occurs

22
Q

3 other factors to consider when using EXT

A

Length of reinforcement history
Baseline schedule of reinforcement
Baseline parameters of reinforcement

23
Q

2 effects of differential reinforcement

A

Differentiation

Discrimination

24
Q
R1 = SR
R2 = EXT
A

Differentiation

25
S1 – R1 = SR | S2 – R1 = EXT
Discrimination
26
SR delivered at the end of a time interval for | absence of target bx
DRO
27
50% to 80% below the average baseline IRT
DRO interval criterion
28
3 types of DRO schedules
Interval DRO Momentary DRO Progressive DRO
29
SR delivered at the end of interval if no target | bx occurred at that exact moment
Momentary DRO
30
Progressively greater amount of SR delivered | for each interval criterion met
Progressive DRO
31
9 common DRO mistakes
DRO for low rate bx DRO interval above average IRT Failing to reset timer if problem bx occurs Inconsistent and extra criteria for problem bx Accidentally reinforcing other problem bx Reinforcing “dead person’s” bx Failing to select a competing reinforcer Using the same reinforcer to satiation Failing to use EXT from problem bx
32
SR delivered for a response physically | incompatible with the target bx
DRI
33
6 common DRI mistakes
``` Select wrong incompatible bx Failing to select a competing reinforcer Using wrong reinforcement schedule Failing to use EXT for problem bx Reinforcing a chain of problem bx Failing to also reinforce alternative bx ```
34
SR delivered for a response that competes | with the target bx
DRA
35
4 common DRA mistakes
Select wrong alternative bx Failing to select a competing reinforcer Using wrong reinforcement schedule Reinforcing a chain of problem behavior
36
SR delivered if target bx is at or below the | maximum responses in a given time period
DRL
37
3 types of DRL schedules
Full-session DRL Interval DRL DRL-T (spaced responding)
38
SR delivered at the end of entire session if | target bx meets criterion
Full-session DRL
39
SR delivered at the end of each interval in | session if target bx meets criterion
Interval DRL
40
SR delivered if a minimum amount of time | has passed since last response
DRL-T (spaced responding)
41
Type of target bx to select when using DRL
minor bx problem
42
2 common DRL mistakes
Using DRL for severe problem bx Using full-session/ interval DRL with naïve learners
43
SR delivered if target bx progressively meets | the changing criterion
DRD
44
SR delivered if target bx occurs between a | specified minimum and maximum rate/IRT
DRP
