1. Repeat SD

2. Prompt the correct response

3. Transfer Trial

What are the steps of the correction procedure?

100

The function of behavior that attempts to gain access to interactions or reactions.

What is attention?

100

The operant that encompasses fill-in the blank statements (i.e. Mary had a little...)

What is Intraverbal?

100

The extinction procedure where attention is removed for maladaptive/undesirable behavior.

Planned Ignoring/Ignoring

100

The nine functions of language as defined by B.F. Skinner in his book Verbal Behavior.

What are verbal operants?

200

This is the prompting hierarchy for teaching new skills

What is Most to Least Prompting?

200

The function of behavior that allows a learner to avoid aversive tasks/people/locations/etc.

What is escape?

200

The first operant taught in our program.

What is the Mand?

200

Changing the Swould be an example of this type of manipulation. 

What is antecedent manipulation?

200

The connecting of two or more stimuli together (i.e. people, items, activities, locations). Neutral stimuli are associated with reinforcing stimuli to create conditioned reinforcers.

What is pairing or stim-stim pairing?

300

The effective teaching procedure that requires an 80:20 ratio.

What is interspersing easy and difficult tasks?

300

This function of behavior allows a learner to gain access to preferred items.

What is tangible?

300

The operant that requires you to label ongoing actions.

What is the Tact?

300

Changing the VR would be an example of this type of manipulation.

What is consequence manipulation?

300

The schedule where reinforcement is delivered after a set number of responses.

What is a fixed ratio (FR)?

400

Switching a response from one operant to another.

What is a transfer trial across operants?

400

This occurs when a behavior stops because access to reinforcement is blocked (not punishment).

What is extinction?

400

The operant that requires you to write down something after it is said aloud.

What is Writing?

400

When reinforcement is changed based on the quality of the learner's response.

What is differential reinforcement?

400

A response that is close to or resembles a desired/target behavior.

What is an approximation?

500

Teaching to fluency helps to shape up this term for the learner's response time.

What is latency?

500

The only automatically mediated function of behavior.

What is Sensory/Internal?

500

The operant that involves a learner saying something aloud after reading it.

What is Textual?

500

Changing a space to ideally increase desired behavior or decrease undesirable behavior.

What is environmental modification?

500

The time between the end of a learner's response and the beginning of your next demand.

What is inter-trial interval (ITI)?
