Definitions
What does SD stand for?
Discriminative Stimulus
Most intrusive type of prompt
Full physical (hand over hand)
How many types are there?
BONUS! 100 points if you name them
4
Fixed ratio
Variable Ratio
Fixed Interval
Variable Interval
What are the four functions of behavior?
Escape
Attention
Tangible
Nonsocial (automatic/sensory)
Reinforcing closer and closer approximations of a target behavior is called this.
Shaping
What is observable and measurable?
A behavior
What is it called when you provide immediate prompting right after the instruction to the client so they can't get it wrong
Errorless teaching or prompting
What is continuous reinforcement?
Reinforcing every instance of behavior
What this?
Aurora headbangs with toys while smiling and laughing and continues playing immediately after.
Sensory/automatic
This reinforcement schedule produces high, steady responding and is commonly used in slot machines.
Variable ratio
An event that happens before the behavior
Antecedent
Define Shaping
Successive approximations; small gradual steps towards a final goal
What this?
You get paid every two weeks.
FR14
Fixed Ratio of 14 days lol
What this?
Deirell sl-eloping out of the room because you asked him to play with a toy.
Escape
Breaking a complex skill into smaller teachable steps is called this.
Task analysis
Term for when behavior is strengthened by natural internal sensory consequences rather than social external consequences
Automatic Reinforcement
Prompting Hierarchy (Least to Most)
1)
What this?
Knowledge gets to get up from the DTT if he sits for three consecutive minutes.
FI3 (mins)
Fixed Interval of 3 minutes
Looking at a child and saying “Stop that!” after yelling may reinforce behavior maintained by this function.
Attention
A child independently says “help please” instead of crying. This replacement behavior is called this.
Functional communication training (FCT)
Name all the verbal operants
Verbal operants:
Mand
Tact
Echoic
Motor Imitation
Listen and Response
Intraverbal
Error Correction Procedure
Reset using ready hands
Represent the SD providing the correct response
Transfer Trial- Represent SD again with no prompting to gain an independent response
What type of schedule is this?
Killian has a token board where he gets a token after the first correct response, another token after the third correct response, and then again after two, and then four and then three correct responses. This averages out to about every three responses.
A VR3!
(Variable Ratio)
Behaviors maintained by this function do not require another person.
Automatic
The transfer of learned skills across people, settings, and materials is called this.
