Most effective method- capital DI

Outcomes assessed- basic skills, cognitive skills, affective outcomes 

Term
Stimulus Generalization
Definition

learning that occurs when stimulus that are similar but not identical to the conditioned stimulus produce the conditioned response

EX) Watch a movie and become afraid of a snack and then see any snake then become of any snake you see .

Term
Response generalization
Definition

The extent to which a learner emits untrained responses that are functionally equivalent to the trained target behavior 

 

EX) saying hi, hello, hey, etc. when only being taught to say hi

Term
Types of overcorrection

Term
DRI (differential reinforcement of incompatible behavior)
Definition

Uses a replacement behavior that cannot be performed at the same time as the target behavior

Term
DRL (Differential reinforcement of LOW RATES)
Definition

Used when you want to REDUCE the frequency of a behavior, NOT extinguish it. 

(Reinforcement is provided when the behaviors frequency is below a certain criteria

EX) student asks too many questions—1 per minute—-repeated in different forms. Observing the rate of other students being called on and asking questions, a target criterion rate of 3 questions per class period is set.

Term
DRH (differential reinforcement of HIGH rates of behavior)
Definition

used when you want to INCREASE the frequency of a behavior (Reinforcement is provided when the rate of the behavior meet or exceeds the set criterion)

EX) client never asks questions or invites opinions of others in convo may need to increase these skills to a point where they engage in questioning or inviting opinion in nearly all convo opportunities.

Term
DRD (Differential reinforcement of DIMINISHING rates)
Definition

Way to reduce behavior in a gradual fashion

 

EX) chews lip when working for 30 minutes per hour, offer reinforcement after chewing his lip no more than 25 mins per hour, then set new criterion to 20 once previous criteria is met.

Term
Stimulus equivalence
Definition

Emergence of accurate responding to untrained/non reinforced stimulus stimulus relations following reinforcement of responses to trained/conditioned stimulus stimulus relations

A=A reflexivity

TEACH A=B C=A then without training B=A A=C emerges which is symmetry

B=C and C=B transitivity

Term

Term

Reflexivity

Symmetry

Transitivity

Definition

Reflexivity: individual matches stimulus to itself and in the absence of training (generalized identity matching)

Symmetry: without training individual reverses the match

transitivity: learner can match further relations of untrained examples (novel)

Term

(imitation skills-motor and vocal, ability to scan an array, does their community know how to use their form of communication, will their learning be reinforced in the natural environment) 

Term
Why are component and parametric analysis important?
Definition
They are both important to make sure the client is receiving the most effective treatment package as well as the most effective reinforcement on a target behavior.
Term
Multiple probe design
Definition

A variation of the multiple baseline design that features intermittent measures, or probes, during baseline.

 

It is used to evaluate the effects of instruction on skill sequences in which it is unlikely that the subject can improve performance on later steps in the sequence before learning prior steps

Term
Changing criterion design
Definition

An 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. Experimental control is evidenced by the extent the level of responding changes to conform to each new criterion 

 

-vary lengths of phases

-return to previous levels

-vary mastery

Term
Advantages and disadvantages of multiple probe design
Definition

Advantages:

-alternative to “unnecessary” continuous baseline

-can be used across behavior, settings and subjects 

 

 

Disadvantages: 

-Time and resources 

Term
When to use a changing criterion design
Definition

-when you want to increase a behavior already in a learners reportire 

-only one target behavior is required 

-does not require reversal of a clients behavior

Types of IOA
Definition
Total count IOA
Meant count IOA
Exact count IOA
Trial by trial IOA
Term
Total count IOA
Definition
this is the simplest and least exact method. IOA = smaller count / larger count * 100.
Caution must be used because there is no guarantee that the observers are recording the same instances of the behavior.
Term
Mean count per interval IOA
Definition
IOA = int 1 IOA + int 2 IOA …+ int N IOA / n intervals * 100
Term
Exact count per interval IOA
Definition
The most exact way to count IOA. This is the percent of intervals in which observers record the same count. IOA = # of intervals at 100% IOA / n intervals * 100
Term
Trial-byTrial IOA
Definition
# of trials items agreement / # of trials * 100
Term
Autoclitic
Definition
a secondary verbal operant that depends on and modifies a primary verbal operant so the listener’s behavior is more precise.
Term

Definition
punishment procedure implemented at school to decrease aggression, frequency of aggression increase at home because it is not being punished across all settings.
Term
Next steps if teacher told you function based intervention was not working.
Definition
a. Procedural integrity to make sure program is implemented accurately
b. Provide Competency based training so the teacher
c. Create task analysis
d. Role play the behavior
e. Provide reinforcement, stay positive (find any behavior to reinforce)
Term
3 behaviors used a changing criterion design
Definition
a. Increase exercising
b. Hand raising behavior
c. Smoking (decrease)
Term
Bcba observed student one time- they implemented pos. punishment procedure for severe head banging SIB, what are some next steps?
Definition
-Bcba should observe student more
-Collect ABC data
-Scatter plot data
-Analyze data (Look at data for punishment procedure to see if its working)
-Complete an FA immediately because behavior is dangerous (instead of conducting FBA, its ok to go straight to FA because behavior is harmful)
-Provide alternate behavior that is functionally equivalent to the target behavior for student to access reinforcement
Term
Matching law example
Definition
student always wants to work on leisure skills instead of work when they are both available. when student is working on leisure their R+ schedule is FI2 mins and when theyre doing work at the desk R+ is on a FI30 sec schedule, student is more likely to allocate their responses to doing work because they are receiving a more dense schedule of reinforcement
