SD: Say "Apple"
Echoic
This involves physically guiding the learner to complete a task.
Physical Prompt
Providing an opportunity to select an activity or toy, for example, can create a sense of control for the learner and reduce less desirable behavior.
Providing Choices
_____ is providing a learner with a reinforcing stimulus each time the desired behavior occurs.
Positive Reinforcement
A-B-C
Antecedent Behavior Data
Mand
In this method, the instructor performs the task while the learner observes, with the expectation that the learner will imitate the behavior.
Model Prompt
a strategy that involves presenting a series of tasks or instructions that a learner is highly likely to comply with (“high-probability” tasks) before presenting a more challenging or less preferred task.
High-Probability Request Sequence
The removal of aversive stimuli, such as receiving a break from a difficult test.
Negative Reinforcement
DTT
Discrete Trial Training
SD: "What is this?"
Tact
When an instructor uses non-verbal cues to guide the learner towards the correct response.
Gestural Prompt
_______ minimizes opportunities for errors, increasing the frequency at which the student encounters reinforcement.
Errorless Learning
______ focuses on finding an alternative behavior to replace a less-appropriate behavior
Differential Reinforcement
NET
Natural Environment Teaching
SD: "Touch the apple"
Listener Responding
This type of prompt involves using spoken language to guide the learner.
Verbal Prompt
_____ helps prepare learners for the expectations for upcoming activities before they occur.
Priming
The removal or withholding of reinforcing items and/or the addition of a non-reinforcing stimuli. These can include strategies such as taking a time-out from reinforcing activities, the use of a response-cost such as losing a token in a token economy, or the use of overcorrection, such as having a learner pick up the environment after a destructive tantrum.
Punishment
DRA
Differential Reinforcement of Alternative Behavior
SD: "What is your name?"
Intraverbal
When an instructor uses images, symbols, or written words to provide guidance.
Visual Prompt
______ can be in the form of pictures, drawings, a written list, or even a planner/calendar. Presenting information visually reduces confusion
Visuals
_____ in ABA is a procedure in which reinforcement is discontinued in order to decrease or eliminate problem behaviors.
Extinction
ABA
