Name the two types of ratio schedule(s).

Fixed Ratio and Variable Ratio

100

Adding something to the environment in order to increase the likelihood of the behavior reocurring.

Positive reinforcement

100

A process of breaking down something to it's smallest parts.

Task Analysis

100

Demonstrating the desired behavior 

Modeling

100

A video, photograph or drawing that increases the likelihood that students will have correct responses to educational stimuli.

Visual Prompt

200

After every 5:00 minutes of staying on task, Dr. SB is given a la croix. What schedule of reinforcement is this most similar to?

Fixed interval

200

Removing something from the environment in order to increase the likelihood of the behavior reocurring.

Negative reinforcement 

200

______ refers to teaching a behavioral chain beginning with the first step: have the child complete the first step independently and then prompt all remaining steps.

Forward Chaining

200

A teaching procedure in which the child is prompted to make the correct response immediately, ensuring a correct response each time.

Errorless Learning

200

A system for providing positive reinforcement to a child or children by giving them something in exchange for completing tasks or behaving in desired ways.

Token Economy 

300
For every solfege syllable Maggie sings correctly, Dr. Franklin says "Great singing, Maggie!". What schedule of reinforcement is this most similar to?

Fixed Ratio

300
A consequence which reduces or aims to reduce the likelihood of a targeted and undesirable behavior from happening again. ___ is the use of negative consequences to discourage unwanted behaviors.


Punishment

300

The essential feature of ______ is teaching a sequence of behaviors in reverse order, starting with the last step in the behavioral sequence

Backwards Chaining

300

______ refers to intentionally decreasing the level of assistance needed to complete a task or activity.

Fading

300

The principle that contingent access to high frequency behaviors serves as a reinforcer for the performance of low frequency behaviors.  (Ex. If I clean my room, I can play on my phone)

Premack Principle 

400
About every 5-6 minutes at the gym, Ellie has a strange man hit on her. What schedule of reinforcement is this most similar to? 

Variable interval 

400

Maggie went to the potty independently and was rewarded with verbal praise and tea. This is an example of...

Positive reinforcement

400

Putting the sheets on the bed and then having the client put the pillows on the bed is an example of....

Backwards Chaining 

400
_____ is the use of reinforcement of successive approximations of a desired behavior. Specifically, when using a _____ technique, each approximate desired behavior that is demonstrated is reinforced, while behaviors that are not approximations of the desired behavior are not reinforced


Shaping

400

Behavioral elements or subsets, each of which are more and more closely resembling the desired behavior.

Successive Approximation 

500

Emma gets a sip of wine for about every 3-4 questions she answers. What type of reinforcement is this?

Variable ratio.

500

We all worked hard this semester so Dr. SB did not make us do our final rep check. This is an example of...

Negative Reinforcement 

500

Having the client put their foot in a shoe independently and then you tie the shoe is an example of...

Forward Chaining

500

Hints, a clue, or a direction and range in intensity level from least to most restrictive.

Verbal Prompt

500

A response that can not simultaneously occur at the occurance of an undesired response. (Ex. Telling a child to take a drink of water when they are screaming)

Incompatible Responses
