Bonus
100
This term refers to the activity of living organisms that is external or internal observable
What is behavior
100

When ›something is REMOVED immediately after the behavior resulting in the behavior occurring more often in the future.

Negative punishment
100
This strategy involves differential reinforcments of successive approximations to a terminal behavior.
What is shaping
100

used to modify problem behaviors, teach behavior, and teach academic concepts.

What is ABA

200

When something is ADDED immediately after the behavior resulting in the behavior occurring more often in the future

Positive Reinforcement

200
Positive punishment occurs when a behavior is followed immediately by the _________ of a stimulus that ______the future frequency of the behavior in similar conditions
What is presentation, decreases
200
This strategy involves reinforcing all other behaviors within a time interval besides the target behavior.
What is differential reinforcement of other behaviors (DRO)
200

What is access to tangibles, escape, attention and automatic reinforcement

What are the Four Functions of Behavior

300

When something is REMOVED immediately after the behavior resulting in the behavior occurring more often in the future.

Negative reinforcement

300
Negative reinforcement occurs when a behavior is followed immediately by the _________ of a stimulus that ______the future frequency of the behavior in similar conditions
What is removal, increases
300
This strategy involves withholding reinforcement for a previously reinforced behavior.
What is extinction
300

This is commonly referred to as “ABC”

What is Antecedent Behavior Consequence

400

›procedure in which a reinforcer is presented after a specified amount of time has passed, regardless of the behavior occurring. NCR is often used to reduce a problem behavior

Noncontingent reinforcement (NCR)

400
Negative punishment occurs when a behavior is followed immediately by the _________ of a stimulus that ______the future frequency of the behavior in similar conditions
What is removal, decreases
400

What is planned ignoring?

›As long as there is no safety hazard to the student or anyone else, the adults plan to ignore the behavior by giving no eye contact, no verbal directions and stopping any reinforcement that is occurring.

400

›This can be primary or secondary reinforcement. Primary reinforcement uses edible items to positively reinforce behavior quickly and frequently. Secondary reinforcement uses toys or preferred items to reinforce behavior less frequently than primary but for a longer amount of time.

›What is a consistent Tangible Reinforcement

500

›items that the individual enjoys, but will not necessarily work for it. Preferred items do not necessarily INCREASE the future frequency of the behavior

Preferred items

500
This is only reinforcing those responses within a response class that meet a specific criterion along some dimension (i.e., frequency, topography, duration, latency, magnitude) and placing all other responses in the class of extinction
What is differential reinforcement
500

›Social reinforcement (good job!, high five, etc.) to reinforce preferred behavior in an effort to decrease problem behavior. This can be combined with consistent tangible reinforcement.

Positive behavior support

500

allows students to work for a preferred activity or access to a preferred item using a visual support
