Teaching
The process used when a learner responds incorrectly to an acquisition skill
what is error correction
the process of breaking a behavior down into smaller steps
what is task analysis
Procedure in which reinforcement that is provided for problem behavior (often unintentionally) is discontinued in order to decrease or eliminate occurrences of these types of negative (or problem) behaviors.
what is extinction
what is operational definition of the target behavior
the types of assessments used to identify program goals for a learner
Natural motivators and everyday encounters are important to this instructional method
What is Natural Environment Teaching
The written out description of what to do when a behavior takes place
During this process do not make demands, give directions, or ask questions. Instead, narrate and comment.
what is pairing
two types of continuous measurement procedures
any two including Frequency, Duration, Rate, ABC, Latency
each time we provide the SD for a program we are running a ___.
what is trial
A skill is in this phase when the learner has mastered it and we are checking to ensure they still have the skill
what is maintenance
The hypothesized function of behavior if a student is flopping on the floor to get out of doing the task
What is escape
interventions based on changing something in the environment including establishing/motivating operations and SDs
what is antecedent strategies
One reason it is important to graph data
what is visual inspection, decision making, or fun
programs that teach a child to label an item are teaching this skill
what is tacting
Training technique aimed at breaking down general skills to be taught into discrete steps in a controlled systematic way
What is DTT
The techniques we use in an attempt to calm a learner or prevent them from further agitation
what is de-escalation
when behavior initially evoked (controlled) by one SD comes under the control of a different SD
what is stimulus transfer control
The type of data collection if recording the impact a behavior has on the environment such as the outcome or product of a behavior
what is permanent product recoding
You are teaching this skill when the SD indicates "copy me" or "do this"
what is imitation
The process of modifying a behavior from one approximation to the target behavior via differential reinforcement strategies
what is shaping
a description of behaviors in terms of the operations (procedures, actions, or processes) by which it could be observed and measured.
what is operational definition
gradually decreasing the intensity of a physical dimension of a stimulus that controls a response (A picture of a banana is printed behind the word 'banana' and is gradually removed as you teach the child to read the word.
what is stimulus fading
A type of line graph in which data is added from the pervious point. If their is no increase, data points stays at the same level
what is continuous graph
Filling in the answer to a question without physical stimuli is targeting this skill
what is intraverbal
