ABA Basics
A-B-C
What is Antecedent-Behavior-Consequence?
Rates of all targeted behavior
What is baseline and current data rates?
List two types of motivating conditions
What is primary and secondary?
Visuals can help aid environmental conditions. Name a visual that, once completed, will give student reinforcement
Token economy (token board)
Name two alternative teaching strategies
FCT, accepting no, tolerating triggering environmental conditions, tolerate divided attention, terminating activity, etc.
First data point collected (daily data or behavior data)
What is baseline?
Three possible target behaviors
What is... aggression, SIB, elopement, property destruction, undressing, vomiting, etc.
A break that does not depend on behavior
What is non-contingent reinforcement?
Visuals can help aid environmental conditions. Name a visual that utilizes a type of schedule
First/then schedules
Which aspect of ABC would we target to find an alternative teaching strategy in order to proactively help behaviors before they occur?
Immediate antecedents
FBA vs. FA
What is functional behavior assessment? What is functional analysis?
(HINT: slow antecedent)
What is Autism Spectrum Disorder?
Reinforcement vs. Punishment
What increases the likelihood a behavior will occur? What decreases the likelihood a behavior will occur?
Name one type of forced prompting
Compliance, over-correction
A child displays screaming at onset of his staff talking to someone else. What would be the best alternative teaching strategy?
Tolerating divided attention, learning to make statements to gain attention
Four functions of behavior
What is sensory (automatic), escape, attention, tangible?
Two possible treatments for target behaviors
What is... CPI, response blocking, planned ignoring, randomization, FCT, prompting, overcorrection
A schedule of reinforcement
What is continuous reinforcement, intermittent schedule (variable, fixed), differential (DRO, DRA, DRI)
A student throws a non-preferred task, name an environmental condition that can be utilized
FCT, Response block
When it seems the child is losing attention in an activity, or getting seemingly frustrated, what would be an alternative teaching strategy for them to utilize before target behavior increases?
Appropriately requesting a break
Explain ABA
What is applied behavior analysis? What is improving socially significant behaviors?
Behavior of a dead man
What is, if a dead man can do it, it's not a behavior?
Percentage of earned reinforcement needed to move on
(what is the term, and name an example)
What is criterion?
Ex: 80% or higher for 5 consecutive sessions
A student likes to gain sensory input and social attention with adults; being in a classroom for long periods causes behavior. Name a condition that can proactively give them sensory or attention
Noncontingent access (to attention, tangibles, movement breaks)
A child displays throwing behavior. What would be the best alternative teaching strategy?
Requesting to throw something that is appropriate/functional
