you are running a BIP for a social positive maintained behavior and you notice everytime you prompt the patient to mand for your attention he runs away and say blah blah blah. What do you do?
Bonus (100): if you can describe the function in this scenario
-Function is changing during prompting
-you would want to prompt for an escape maintained behavior by modeling the correct response "oh it looks like you want some space" "All done" "give me space"
-also let bcba know because all of the bips are written to address a specific function
What does "PECS" stand for
Picture Exchange Communication System

1) Priming
2) The Premack Principle
My kid engaged in target behaviors all of my session. I didn't collect any skill acquisition data. what the heck do I put in my note for the session summary?
-Note HOW you tried to get kiddo back to HRE
-what consequence strategies were used?
-behavior reduction programs ran?
If your patient is engaging in escape maintained behavior during DTT, what should your first next step be?
-Re assessing their motivation and reminding them of the contingency "First tokens, then outside play."
You are told to run a VR 4 at DTT for a token board of five...What does this mean?
the schedule of reinforcement would variable ratio of 4. The number of trials you run before delivering reinforcement (token) should average to 4 after completeing the token board.
What would be an appropriate faded prompt after a patient Independently demonstrates a skill using a gestural prompt?
Always refer the program specific instructions but most of the time from a gestural you would move to an independent probe!
You observe a novel behavior with a patient. Name three things you should take note of to relay to your BCBA.

Sarah says to "use differential reinforcement" for the amount of time your kiddo gets ipad after completing a token board. What the heck does this mean?
little prompting/ behavior= more time with R+
a lot of escape behavior observed/ high rate of prompting used= less time with R+
Bonus (100): Give an example of Diff reinforcement in NET
Something that should ALWAYS be observed before running skill acquisition programs...
What is ASSENT SIGNS!!
Bonus (100): List assent signs for one of our kiddos
At what point to you call a BCBA for assistance during a behavior episode/ escalation
-You are not trained on the specific BIP
-you observe a novel behavior that you are unsure how to work through
-You have implemented all of the consequence strategies that are in the specific BIP
-Patient has not de escalated ~5 mins
-patient continues to escalate further and intensifies in topography
After running an error correction procedure...How should you track this in CR?
You should record the WHOLE procedure with one trial. Record the most invasive prompt used though the procedure.
An example of reinforcing an attention maintained behavior looks like....
Let's see the scenario
ISO means.....
....IN SEARCH OF
A standard error correction procedures look like...
Patient threw a bunch of things on the floor and refuses to clean them up. RBT tells the patient "We cannot move on until you clean up your mess and RBT blocks access to any other alternative activities." What procedure is the RBT using?
