What does DTT stand for?

What is discrete trial training

100

This is any observable and measurable interaction of an individual that can be described in objective and specific terms.

What is behavior

100

Positive reinforcement occurs when a behavior is followed immediately by the presentation of a ___ that ___ the likelihood of the desired behavior in the future.

What is stimulus, increases

(A behavior is followed immediately by a stimulus that increases the likelihood of the desired behavior.)

100

This strategy involves differential reinforcements of successive approximations to a behavior.

What is shaping

100
This is best classified as a request
What is a mand
200

This is often referred to as "ABCs" of behavior

What is Antecedent, Behavior, Consequence

200

What are the 6 verbal operants?

What is: mand, tact, echoic, intraverbal, motor imitation, and listener responding

200

Negative punishment occurs when a behavior is followed immediately by the ____ of a stimulus that ______the future frequency of the behavior.

What is removal, decreases

(A behavior is followed immediately by the removal of a stimulus that decreases the future frequency of the behavior)

200

This strategy involves withholding reinforcement for a previously reinforced behavior.

What is extinction

200

What are the four functions of behavior?

What is sensory, escape, attention, and access to tangibles

(SEAT)

300

This term is referred to as "SD"

What is discriminative stimulus

300

This is the process of breaking a complex skill or series of behaviors into smaller and teachable units

What is a task analysis

BONUS: What are the 3 types?

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

(A behavior is followed immediately by the removal of a stimulus that increases the future frequency of the behavior)

300

This strategy involves reinforcing all other behaviors within a time interval besides the target behavior.

What is differential reinforcement of other behaviors (DRO)

300

What is it when you completely remove reinforcement to a specific behavior to reduce or eliminate the behavior?

What is extinction

400

What does AAC stand for?

What is augmented and alternative communication

400

What is it called when a behavior occurs in many settings, but the behavioral intervention occurs in only one setting or with one person?

What is behavioral contrast

400

Positive punishment occurs when a stimulus is ____ following a behavior, which causes the likelihood of the behavior to ____ in the future.

What is added/presented, decrease

(A stimulus is [added or presented] following a behavior, which causes the likelihood of the behavior to decrease in the future)

400
This strategy involves repeatedly using the same SD several times in a row and is used to introduce new items and/or work on trouble items
What is mass trials
400

In order for an item to be considered generalized, it must be across.. (3 answers)

What is: different people, settings, and stimuli.

500
What are the full terms for BIP and BSP?

What is a Behavior Intervention Plan and Behavior Support Plan

500

This term is referred to as the child still learning a certain response. The response is being reinforced, and prompted if necessary, but isn't mastered.

What is acquisition targets

500

This is only reinforcing 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

BONUS: What are the 5 types of DR?

500

This is a gradual removal of an antecedent stimulus for a target behavior to allow the client to perform a skill independently and respond to a more natural cue.

What is stimulus fading

BONUS: What is the difference between stimulus fading and prompt fading?

500

This is an increase in the frequency of responding when an extinction procedure is initially implemented

What is extinction burst
