An evidence-based training method that aims to teach individuals new skills by using a systematic approach
Behavior Skills-Training
2-3 high probability requests are presented followed by 1 low probability request
High-Probability Request Sequence
Adding an aversive stimulus after an unwanted behavior, resulting in a decrease in that behavior in the future
Positive Punishment
A reward provided in exchange for earned tokens
Back-Up Reinforcer
Following formal pairing procedures, the tokens in a token economy are this type of reinforcer.
Generalized Conditioned Reinforcer
How often should supervision be provided to technicians?
5% of hours
An antecedent intervention that involves providing stimuli with known reinforcing properties on a fixed-time or variable-time schedule independent of the individual's behavior.
Noncontingent Reinforcement (NCR)
The response-contingent loss of a specific number of positive reinforcers that decreases the frequency of similar responses in the future.
Response cost
In this type of group contingency, the reinforcement of the entire group is dependent on the behavior of one individual.
Dependent Group Contingency
The formula for establishing initial NCR schedule
Total duration of all baseline sessions/ total number of behaviors observed during baseline sessions
When an observer's data collection or performance is influenced by the awareness that they are being monitored and evaluated.
Observer Reactivity
In an NCR procedure, the enriched environment may function as this type of motivating operation for engaging in the problem behavior.
Abolishing Operation (AO)
5 types of positive punishment procedures
Reprimands
Response Blocking
Response Interruption and Redirection (RIRD)
Overcorrection
Contingent Exercise
A written document outlining specific contingencies that must be met for an individual to obtain a certain reinforcer.
Contingency Contract
Describes the resistance to change in a behavior's rate of responding following an alteration in reinforcement conditions.
Behavior Momentum
4 Steps of BST
Instruction, model, rehearsal, feedback
When initially teaching FCT, you should use this schedule of reinforcement
FR1/Continuous
A positive punishment procedure, in which the individual is required to restore the environment to better than it's original state
Restitutional Overcorrection
A procedure for decreasing problem behavior in which reinforcement is delivered for a behavior that is topographically incompatible with the behavior targets for reduction and withheld following instances of the problem behavior
Differential Reinforcement (DRI)
Strategies that alter the motivating operations by influencing which classes of consequences function effectively as reinforcers.
Contingency-Independent Antecedent Intervention
A measure of how reliably a treatment is being delivered as it was written.
Procedural Integrity
A strategy that teaches individuals ways to appropriately communicate, utilizeing an individual's EOs by teaching the individual replacement behavior
Functional Communication Training (FCT)
Planned ignoring is this type of time-out procedure
Non-exclusionary time-out
This differential reinforcement procedure helps to increase behavior that the individual displays too infrequently
Differential Reinforcement of High Rates of Behavior (DRH)
FCT is an application of this type of differential reinforcement procedure
Differential Reinforcement of Alternative Behavior (DRA)
