Antecedents
What is an antecedent?
What is a consequence?
Anything that occurs right after a behavior of interest
What are the four functions of behavior?
Sensory/Automatic, Escape, Attention, Access/Tangible
What is the 3-term contingency?
Antecedent - behavior - consequence
What is extinction?
No longer reinforcing a behavior
What is an antecedent intervention?
What is a consequence intervention?
Strategies or interventions implemented after a challenging behavior occurs to treat the behavior for decrease
What function is demonstrated if a child is repetitively running back and forth and they do not care if the technician is with them in the room or not?
Sensory/Automatic
When a intervention is being carried out and does not seem to be effecting the behavior in your session, what should you do?
Check the behavior intervention plan for further consequence interventions to try / reach out to the BCBA for help
True / False - Behavior intervention strategies must be stemmed from research
True
What is an antecedent intervention that can be implemented if your kiddo runs into the parking lot?
Hand holding, technician walks on the outside of the sidewalk, prompting communication for running, using a wagon to transition, and more!
Identify the consequence in this scenario ->
A child is running around the gym and falls down, everyone continues to play around them so they get up and play too
everyone continues to play and child gets up to join play too
What is a replacement behavior?
A behavior that is being taught/reinforced instead of the challenging behavior
What is an operational definition and where can it be found?
A definition for a behavior of interest within the behavior intervention plan
What type of schedule is synonymous with fixed-ratio 1 schedule?
Continuous
What type of antecedent intervention is working on teaching communication to your kiddo based on the function of behavior?
Functional Communication Training
This consequence differential reinforcement procedure involves reinforcing the ABSENCE of a targeted behavior within a timed interval
Differential reinforcement of other behavior (DRO)
What does the replacement behavior TYPICALLY have to have that is the same as the challenging behavior?
The same function
What does it mean when a technician is running a behavior intervention plan with integrity or fidelity?
The technician is running the behavior intervention plan as written/intended to be implemented
What is the difference between reinforcement and punishment strategies?
Reinforcement increases a behavior
Punishment decreases a behavior
Where do you find the antecedent interventions for your clients' targeted behaviors?
In their central reach session - open targeted behavior - scroll down to the BIP and identify section with "antecedent interventions"
Diff. reinforcement of incompatible
Diff. reinforcement of alternative
Diff. reinforcement of other
Diff. reinforcement of lower rates
What is a potential replacement behavior for a child that is repetitively pushing/rubbing their head against walls or the ground to seek sensory input?
Teach kiddo to ask for head rubs/head scratches, teach kiddo to ask for an item such as a head scratcher to use
Is a crisis intervention plan the same as a behavior intervention plan? How are they different?
No,
a crisis plan is something that is implemented if the behavior intervention plan does not work and the behavior can lead to injury to the patient or others
What are Devrah's children's names?
Elijah and Evan
