Instructional Strategies
100
An assessment method in which environmental events (antecedents & consequences) are systematically manipulated in order to demonstrate a functional relationship between environmental events and problem behavior
What is functional analysis
100
a motivating operation that increases the reinforcing effectiveness of a particular stimulus, object, or event and increases the current frequency of behaviors that have been reinforced by that stimulus, object, or event
What is establishing operation
100
This elementary verbal operant is evoked by a motivating operation and is followed by specific reinforcement
What is mand
100
experimental design in which two or more conditions (one of which may be a no-treatment, control condition) are presented in rapidly alternating succession independent of level of responding
What is alternating treatments design (aka multi-element design)
100
This instructional strategy involves the use of the standard celeration chart to track performance
What is precision teaching
200
These are the four conditions that one typically includes when implementing a traditional FA
What are attention, escape, alone, & control
200
a motivating operation that, as a result of a learning history, alters the reinforcing effectiveness of some other stimulus and alters the current frequency of behaviors that have been reinforced by that other stimulus
What is transitive conditioned motivating operation (CMO-T)
200
this elementary verbal operant is evoked by a non-verbal Sd and is followed by generalized conditioned reinforcement
What is a tact
200
experimental design that begins with the concurrent measurement of two of more behaviors in a baseline condition. The treatment variable is then applied to one of the behaviors in the experiment while the others remain in baseline. Once a maximum change has been noted, the treatment variable is then applied in successive fashion to the other behaviors in the design
What is multiple baseline design
200
instructional strategy in which students progress through material at their own pace, students must demonstrate mastery on specific material before moving forward, and proctors are used to provide opportunities for repeated testing and immediate feedback
What is personalized system of instruction (PSI)
300
These are assessment methods that do not involve the observation of the target individual. Instead, they involve gathering information from individuals who are familiar with the person and his/her target behavior in the form of interviews, checklists, rating scales, questionnaires (ex. FAST).
What are indirect functional behavior assessments
300
a motivating operation that decreases the reinforcing effectiveness of a particular stimulus, object, or event and decreases the current frequency of behaviors that have been reinforced by that stimulus, object, or event
What is abolishing operation
300
this elementary verbal operant is evoked by a verbal Sd and has both point-to-point correspondence & formal similarity with that Sd
What is an echoic
300
experimental design in which an initial baseline phase is followed by a series of treatment phases consisting of successive and gradually changing criteria for reinforcement or punishment
What is changing criterion design
300
this is another name for the Keller Plan
What is PSI
400
also known as an analog analysis
What is functional analysis
400
a motivating operation that has been paired with another motivating operation, and as a result it has acquired the same value-altering and behavior-altering effects
What is surrogate conditioned motivating operation (CMO-S)
400
this elementary verbal operant is evoked by a verbal Sd and does not have point-to-point correspondence with that Sd
What is an intraverbal
400
an experiment designed to determine the active elements in a treatments package or the relative contribution of multiple components within an intervention
What is a component analysis
400
This person developed precision teaching
Who is Ogden Lindsley
500
also known as anecdotal observation this recording method involves an individual observing and recording occurrences of the target behavior as well as any observable antecedents and consequences
What is ABC Recording
500
a motivating operation that, as a result of a learning history, alters the effectiveness of its own removal or continued presence as reinforcing or punishing (tends to precede a type of worsening or improvement)
What is reflexive conditioned motivating operation (CMO-R)
500
behavior whose reinforcement is mediated by a listener
What is verbal behavior
500
an experiment designed to determine the differential effects of a range of values of the independent variable
What is a parametric analysis
500
this method of teaching - involves the use of very detailed & scripted lessons - requires teachers to follow a script - uses fast-paced lessons and choral responding
What is direct instruction
