behavior reduction
100

process of breaking a skill down into smaller, more manageable components

What is task analysis?

100

Skills which involve the use of small muscle groups,

What is fine motor?

100
Positive reinfocement occurs when a behavior is followed immediately by the _________ of a stimulus that ______ the future frequency of the behavior in similar conditions.
What is presentation, increases
100
This strategy involves differential reinforcments of successive approximations to a terminal behavior.
What is shaping
100

4 steps of FBA:

  1. Defining the behavior 
  2. Gathering information 
  3. Developing a hypothesis about the cause
  4. Making a plan to change the behavior
200

measurement of the behavior taken before interventions are started

What is baseline?

200
This is when the child is still learning a certain response. The response is being reinforced, and prompted if necessary but is not yet mastered.
What is acquisition trials
200
Positive punishment occurs when a behavior is followed immediately by the _________ of a stimulus that ______the future frequency of the behavior in similar conditions
What is presentation, decreases
200
This strategy involves reinforcing all other behaviors within a time interval besides the target behavior.
What is differential reinforcement of other behaviors (DRO)
200

get worse, before it gets better

What is an extinction burst?

300

 data on the first trial of a program

What is probe data?

300

When you're denied access to something, that item often becomes more attractive. 

What is deprivation?

300
Negative reinforcement occurs when a behavior is followed immediately by the _________ of a stimulus that ______the future frequency of the behavior in similar conditions
What is removal, increases
300
This strategy involves withholding reinforcement for a previously reinforced behavior.
What is extinction
300

This is an increase in the frequency of responding when an extinction procedure is initially implemented

What is an extinction burst

400

ability of a child to demonstrate previously acquired skills over time

What is maintenance?

400
The sequence of new response classes that emerge during the shaping process as the result of differential reinforcement; each response class is closer in form to the terminal behavior than the response class it replaces.
What is successive approximations
400
Negative punishment occurs when a behavior is followed immediately by the _________ of a stimulus that ______the future frequency of the behavior in similar conditions
What is removal, decreases
400
This strategy involves repeatedly using the same SD several times in a row and is used to introduce new items and/or work on trouble items
What is mass trials
400

These are the four functions of behavior

What is access to tangibles, escape, attention and automatic reinforcement

500

Key component in ABA, 

What is data collection?

500
These are the verbal operants
What is mand, tact, intraverbal and echoic
500
This is only reinforcing those responses within a response class that meet a specific criterion along some dimension (i.e., frequency, topography, duration, latency, magnitude) and placing all other responses in the class of extinction
What is differential reinforcement
500
This procedure is used for transferring stimulus control in which features of an antecedent stimulus controlling a behavior are gradually changed to a new stimulus while maintaining the current behavior
What is fading
500

Consistent repetition of vocalizations made by another individual

What is ECHOLALIA?
