What materials will you need for the skill acquisition procedure? 

Data Collection Materials

100

What are the 2 intervals in the Schedules of Reinforcement?

Fixed and Variable

100

Define Maintenance

Once a trial choice has been mastered, you would include it in the rotation of mastered choices during random rotation and expanded trials.

100

To encourage manding, you put a desirable item in clear view of a learner is an example of what?

Naturalistic Teaching Procedures 

100

True or False. When part of the skill is taught, and the learner is given support for only challenging steps it is Total Task Chaining. 

False. The entire skill is taught in Total Task Chaining. 

100

Only one stimulus condition is present during?

Successive

200

True or False. You need to select skill acquisition procedures to complete during the session.

True

200
What type of reinforcement is used in the initial stages of learning a new behavior?
Continuous Reinforcement 
200

Asking the target multiple times in a repetitive manner is done in what trial?

Mass Trail 

200
What are learners, learning their skills through?

ABA Programs

200

What does task analysis mean?

Breaking complex skills into smaller, teachable units creating sequential steps.

200

Teaching a client how to tell the difference between two or more stimuli defines what training?

Discrimination Training

300
What are the last 3 essential components of a written skill acquisition plan?

Select and implement skill acquisition procedure(s), Take data of target behaviors to determine effectiveness and Modify if necessary to maintain/increase effectiveness

300

Food is an example of what type of reinforcement?

Unconditioned Reinforcement 

300

Asking the same target each trial but including two ‘unknown” choices as answer options defines what trial?

Distractor Trial

300

Bringing a learner to the presence of a real dog and asking "what is it," after the learner identifies and tact a picture of a dog is an example of?

Naturalistic Teaching Procedures

300

In this type of chaining you conduct the first step of a task, then the second, then the third, until the entire sequence is mastered. What is this type of chaining called?

Forward Chaining

300

Reinforcing occurrences of a behavior in the presence of one stimulus condition and not in the presence of another stimulus condition occurs during what training?

Discrimination Training 

400

True or False. You do not need to determine what occurred last session to decide where to start. 

False

400

What reinforcement is typically used to maintain established behaviors?

Intermittent Reinforcement 

400

You would rotate prompts with each trial in this trail?

Expanded Trail 

400

The definition of this procedure is using the natural environment to generalize learned skills into natural, everyday use, to help learners generalize the skills they are learning. What is the procedure?

Naturalistic Teaching Procedures 

400

If it is challenging for a learner to turn on the water and get soap but they were able to do the other steps, these specific steps would be taught using a prompt fading system. This describes what type of chaining?

Total Task Chaining 

400

What is the definition of simultaneous?

Both stimuli are presented at once

500

What are the first 4 essential components of a written skill acquisition plan?

Identify skill deficit, Create a goal to address deficit, Identify measurement procedures, Assess current skill level (baseline)

500

What are the 2 ratios in the Schedules of Reinforcement?

Fixed and Variable

500

What is Random Rotation?

A trial that includes one mastered choice and one trial choice.

500

In this type of chaining you are completing a task entirely except for the last step. What is this type of chaining called?

Backward Chaining
