Some of the 7 Dimensions
This dimension refers to behavior change that lasts over time and appears in environments other than the one it was originally learned in.
What is generality?
When a stimulus is presented following a response, that will increase or maintain that response in the future.
What is positive reinforcement?
This type of preference assessment involves presenting one item at a time and recording the response.
What is single stimulus?
Reinforcement occurs following a specific amount of time with an absence of the target behavior.
What is a DRO?
This person has worked at Lakeside the longest.
Who is Everea?
Socially significant behavior change that improves the life of the client in a way that leads others (parents, teachers, the community) to interact more positively with the client.
What is applied?
A group or set of responses that serve the same function/same impact on the environment.
What is a response class?
These are the five conditions of a Functional Analysis
What are alone, attention, escape, tangible, and control?
The use of differential reinforcement on successive approximations of behavior.
What is shaping?
This person has an irrational fear of butterflies.
Who is Nicole?
Behavior being studied must be in need of improvement, measurable, and directly changed by the intervention (not any outside influences).
What is behavioral?
Respondent conditioning elicits a response, while operant conditioning _______ a response.
What is evokes?
This design is best used to shape a behavior a client can already perform.
What is a changing criterion design?
Removing the prompt systematically to transfer control to the real SD, which helps prevent prompt dependency.
What is prompt fading?
This person is an introvert
Who is Everea?
Behavior change procedures should be derived from research and consistent with behavior principles
What is conceptually systematic?
An experimenter sounds a tone just before delivering an air puff that causes your eye to blink. After several repetitions, you blink to the tone alone. In this example, What is the Unconditioned Stimulus (US)?
What is air puff?
You would use this type of experimental design for a client who engages in severe SIB when you want to try several different treatment procedures.
What is alternating treatment design?
You are contacted by one of your client’s teacher who is disruptive in class as a way to get teacher attention. After observation, you notice the disruptive behavior has an Interresponse Time (IRT) of 7 minutes. You advise the teacher to implement NCR procedure and give the student attention every_________ minutes.
What is 6 minutes?
This person had a pet goose as a kid.
Who is Renee?
When all of a treatment/study's procedures are described with detail and clarity, so that replication of the treatment would yield the same result.
What is technological?
These are the four basic schedules of reinforcement.
What are Fixed Ratio (FR), Variable Ratio (VR), Fixed Interval (FI), and Variable Interval (VI).
If your client begins engaging in a novel topography of maladaptive behavior, you would begin with this type of data collection.
What is ABC data collection?
This principles states that the proportion of responses a person makes to an option will match the proportion of reinforcement they receive from that option
What is matching law?
This person's relative worked for George Washington.
Who is Christopher?
