Definitions
The science in which the principles of the analysis of behavior are applied systematically to improve socially significant behavior and experimentation is used to identify the variables responsible for behavior change.
What is Applied Behaviour Analysis?
This is represented by a yellow band on the chart.
What is an aim band?
A verbal operant which is controlled by a nonverbal stimulus (such as an object, event, or property of an object) and is maintained by nonspecific social reinforcement (praise).
What is a tact?
He is said to be the founder or father of ABA as a result of the success of EIBI and his decades of empirical research.
Who is Lovass?
The input and output we use for tacting.
What is see-say?
The procedure that involves reinforcing behaviors that are closer to the target behavior, also known as successive approximations.
What is shaping?
All timings are standardized to this count.
What is count per minute?
Form of verbal behaviour where the speaker responds to another's verbal behaviour
What is an intraverbal?
He is the author of our favourite textbook.
Who is Cooper?
Imitation is described using this input and output.
What is see-do?
An intervention strategy characterized by its highly structured, one-on-one teaching environment in which tasks are broken down and taught in small increments
What is DTT/Discrete Trial Training?
Accel data points are represented by circles and decel data points are represented by these..
What are x's?
This operant involves responding nonverbally to the verbal behaviour of another.
What is listener responding?
They developed the 7 dimensions of ABA.
Who are Baer, Wolf and Wisley?
Hear-see do can be used to describe the input and output for this program.
What is matching/LR?
The ability for a student to perform a skill under different conditions (stimulus generalization), the ability to apply a skill in a different way (response generalization), and also to continue to exhibit that skill over time (maintenance).
What is generalization?
Measured behaviour which occurs at different frequencies across time is referred to as this.
What is bounce/variability?
This occurs when a verbal response has a point-to-point correspondence to its preceding verbal stimulus.
What is an echoic?
Hear-say is used to describe this verbal operant.
What is an echoic?
The application of principles of ABA in an intensive setting (minimum 25 hours per week) to result in behaviour change and improvement.
What is IBI/Intensive Behavioural Intervention?
How accurately one can respond in a short amount of time.
What is fluency?
Form of verbal behavior that is controlled by deprivation, satiation(motivating operations), as well as a controlling history.
What is a mand?
He developed the theory of operant conditioning.
Who is B.F Skinner?
The input and output used for an intraverbal program.
What is Freehear-say?
