Generalization & Maintenance
Targets into Play
DTT vs NET
ABA Knowledge
Millennial general knowledge
100
What is generalization and why is it important?
The ability for a learned behavior to occur in different settings, with different people with different stimuli.
It ensures that specific skills that a client learns are functionally used in life rather than just a clinical setting.

Your client loves cars and you're teaching colors. Elaborate on how you could incorporate these specific skills into play
tacting, receptive ID
100
What do the following acronyms stand for?
DTT & NET
Discrete trial training (or teaching)
Naturalistic environment teaching

Name 2 ABA strategies that can be used as antecedent interventions.
Primes, FCT, schedules, etc.
100
What kind of phone is this?
Razr
200
How do we teach generalization?
Multiple exemplars, across people, settings, programming common stimiuli, using natural reinforcement, training loosely
200
Why is using the client's preferred toys or activities important when embedding learning into play?
Using the child’s preferred toys or activities helps keep them motivated and engaged
200
Provide one benefit of each DTT and NET
NET: high rates of engagement, promoting maintenance and generalization, natural reinforcement, etc.
DTT: structured, quick skill acquisition, instant reinforcement or error correction
200
Provide an example of each:
Positive reinforcement & negative reinforcement
Adding something to increase a behavior and removing something to increase a behavior

Name 2 characters from this show
Rachel, Monica, Phoebe, Joey, Chandler, Ross

Your client only tacts 'lego' when shown a red lego. To help them label a lego when seeing other types, you start presenting different color and sizes in your teaching. What strategy are you using to promote generalization?
Using multiple exemplars

***DOUBLE JEOPARDY***
When you're incorporating targets into play what type of reinforcement is likely to occur?
Naturally occurring reinforcement

Provide an example of a skill you would teach using NET and then a different skill you would teach using DTT (include the clear beginning, middle and end used in DTT)

***DOUBLE JEOPARDY***
Define or provide an example of stimulus control transfer.
The process of transferring the control of a behavior from one cue to a more natural cue.
Ex: If a child only says 'hi' when you say 'hi', you gradually fade the prompt, so they learn how to say 'hi' when they see someone, not only when told.

What is the difference between maintenance and generalization?
Maintenance is about the behavior lasting; generalization is about the behavior happening in different ways or places

When incorporating skills into play, RBTs have the opportunity to probe a variety of skills. What might this look like in a natural play setting?
Asking them to do things that haven't necessarily been taught to see if the child has that skill.
400
Each trial of DTT has a clear beginning, middle and end which are...
SD, client response, consequence
400
Name the 4 types of continuous measurement & the 3 types of discontinuous measurement (no acronyms ;))
Frequency, latency, duration, interresponse time
Partial interval, whole interval, momentary time sampling

What movie are these girls from and what are their names?
Dionne and Cher from Clueless

***100 POINT BONUS***
This ABA concept is similar to generalization because both involve learning when and how to respond to different stimuli.
Discrimination training

Explain how the principle of 'pairing' relates to successful play-based learning. What risks exist if play is overly structed or heavily RBT led too soon?
If play is too structured too soon, it can feel like work and reduce motivation, making it harder to build rapport or keep the child engaged.

***100 POINT BONUS***
What is one risk of using DTT exclusively for teaching social skills, and how might NET compensate for this?
NET would benefit from true social context, whereas DTT may teach social skills away from natural opportunities.

An SD is the signal that reinforcement is available. What is the signal that reinforcement is NOT available?
Sdelta
