100
This term is referred to as an FBA
What is a Functional Behavior Assessment
100
This term refers to behavior that operates on the environment and is changed by the environment.
What is Operent Behavior
100

Positive reinfocement occurs when a behavior is followed immedidetly by the _________ of a stimulus that ______ the future frequency of the behavior in similar conditions.

What is presentation, increases

100

This strategy involves differential reinforcement of successive approximations to a terminal behavior.

What is behavioral shaping/shaping

100

The level of investigation that involves the collection of facts about observed events that can be quantified, classified, and examined for possible relations with other known facts, and often suggests hypotheses or questions for additional research is:

Description

200
R+ stands for this term
What is positive reinforcement
200
This is the independent variable in the statement: Effect of time out procedures on self-injurious behavior
What is "time out procedures"
200
This term is abbreviated as DRA
What is Differential reinforcement of alternative behaviors
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

A(n) _______ measure of the actual behavior of interest will always possess more validity than a(n) _______ measure.

Direct, indirect

300
CRF refers to this term
What is continuous reinforcement
300
Walking, blinking, brushing your teeth, kicking, writing are all examples of.
What are behaviors
300
This type of reinforcement reinforces the behavior after every occurence.
What is continuous reinforcement (crf)
300
This strategy involves withholding reinforcement for a previously reinforced behavior.
What is extinction
300

The research tactic for examining two or more elements of a treatment package is called a(n)

Component analysis

400
This term is referred to as SD
What is discriminative stimulus
400
This is said to exist when there is an ability to consistently bring about changes in the dependent variable by manipulating the independent variable.
What is a functional relationship
400
Negative reinfocement 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
400

The definition of this strategy is the removal of access to a reinforcer for a specific time period, immediately after the unwanted response resulting in a decreased frequency of that response class.

What is time out

400

During a math game every time a student shouted out an answer before being called on that student was placed in the penalty box and not allowed to participate for two questions. This is an example of which time-out procedure?

Contingent observation

500

S-R-C refers to this three word term

What is stimulus--response--consequence

500
This term refers to a specific sequence of beaviors, each associated with a particular stimulus condition
What is behavior chaining
500

This term refers to reinforcing only those responses within a response class that meet a specific criterion along some dimensions and placing all other responses in the class on extinction.

What is differential reinforcement

500
Physically interventing to prevent completition of the behavior as soon as it is initiated is known as ___________ _______________.
What is response blocking
500

This is the extent to which a learner emits the target behavior in a setting or stimulus situation that is different from the instructional setting.
