100

Mand

What is requesting something

100

Frequency

What is the total number of times that a behavior occurs throughout a specific observation period, Continuous

100

Free operant 

What is several items are placed in the environment and the duration of engagement with each item is recorded as an index of relative preference.   

100
A stands for...

What is Antcedent

100

Define Antcedent Intervention?

What is manipulating or changing environmental variables within a context as a proactive strategy to prevent maladaptive behaviors from occurring

200

Tact

What is labelling something

200

Partial Interval

What is the observation period is divided into intervals and the observer marks whether a targeted behavior occurs at any time during the interval, Discontinuous

200

Single Stimulus

What is providing one item to the learner, allowing the learner to engage with it, and recording the response and duration of engagement.

200

B stands for...

What is Behavior

200

Define Extinction

What is no longer reinforcing a previously einforced behavior

300

Echoic

What is the learner repeats the sound(s) that are being said with point to point correspondence

300

Whole Interval

What is the observation period is divided into intervals, and the  observer marks whether a target behavior occurs for the entire interval, Discontinuous

300

Forced Choice

What is placing two items in front of the learner and allowing them to select one.

300

C stands for...

What is Consequence

300

Name and define DRI

What is Differential Reinforcement of Incompatible Behavior, reinforcement is given for a behavior that cannot be done at the same time as the behavior targeted for reduction

400

Listener Responding

What is a physical response to an instruction

400

Latency

What is measuring how long it takes for a behavior to begin after an Sd has occurred, Continuous

400

Multiple stimulus without replacement

A preference assessment with items set out in an array, learner selects item, and the item is not put back in the array.

400

Why do we take ABC data?

What is to hypothesize the function of the behavior

400

Name and define DRA

What is Differential Reinforcement of Alternative Behaviors, reinforcement is given for a behavior that serves as an appropriate alternative to the behavior targeted for reduction and serves the same function

500

Intraverbal

What is a verbal response to a verbal stimulus without point to point correspondence

500

Momentary Time Sampling

What is specified intervals are set, and the observer records whether the behavior is occurring at the end of the interval, Discontinuous

500

Multiple stimulus with replacement

What is a preference assessment with items set out, learner selects item. Once item is selected the therapists puts the item that was chosen back into the array and replaces the items not chosen with new items. 

500

What are the 4 functions of behavior?

What are Sensory (Automatic), Escape (Avoidance), Attention, Tangibles (Access)

500

Name and define DRO

Differential Reinforcement of Other Behaviors, reinforcement is contingent on the absence of the problem behavior occurring during specific time intervals and is withheld if the problem behavior is exhibited during that time interval.
