Measurements
A method of data collection for all instances of behavior.
Give two examples.
Continuous Measurement
(Examples: Frequency, Duration, Rate, Latency, ITR, Permanent Product)
Imitating a motor movement.
Motor Imitation
The most common form of graph used in ABA
Line Graph
A reinforcement that requires a learning history.
Conditioned/ Secondary Reinforcer
A discriminative stimulus is
A signal that reinforcement is available and something in the environment that can evoke a behavior.
The time from the SD to the beginning of the response.
Latency
The reinforcer is delivered for the first response that occurs after a variable amount of time.
Variable Interval Schedule
The primary function of a graph data.
Communicate the results of implemented interventions.
When a client is learning a new skill, the ideal schedule of reinforcement would be…
Fixed Ratio of 1 (FR1)
When speaking with family and caregivers it is important to…
Speak in simple terms that are easily understood.
The two types of measurement procedures.
1. Continuous Measurement
2. Discontinuous Measurement
Form of verbal behavior that requires the listener to respond to another’s verbal behavior.
Listener Responding (Commands/Discrimination)
The range between the data points on a graph.
Variability
Occurs when a behavior is followed immediately by presenting a stimulus the increases the future frequency of the behavior occurring again.
Positive Reinforcement
A one time trial to correctly perform a task or answer a question before inter-trial interval and before the beginning of a new trial.
Discrete Trial Training
The time between the end of a response or behavior to the start of the next behavior.
Inter-Response Time
The four principles of reinforcement
1. Deprivation 2.Contingency 3. Immediacy 4. Size
The process of visually inspecting graphed data to understand how treatment is affecting the target behavior.
Visual Analysis
Occurs when a behavior is followed by the immediate removal of a stimulus to decrease the future frequency of the behavior occurring again.
Negative Punishment
Incidental teaching capitalizes on opportunities in the ————— to teach towards specific objective.
Natural Environment
A recording method in which products of a behavior are assessed.
Permanent Product
This is an example of what kind of verbal operant?
Therapists ask “who delivers mail?” Patient says, “Mailman.”
Intraverbal
True or False
Trends must always be ascending.
False
________ __________ schedule means: some occurrences of behavior are reinforced.
Intermittent Reinforcement
A repertoire refers to…
The skills a client possesses
