Study Notes
ADHD Severity
- Severity of ADHD impacts life functioning.
Behavioral Measurement
- Whole Interval Recording involves marking behavior occurrence during the entire observed interval.
Communication Dynamics
- Speakers act as discriminative stimuli (SDs) for listeners, facilitating verbal and cognitive responses.
Functional Behavior Assessment
- Experimental Functional Analysis directly manipulates antecedents and consequences to identify behavior functions.
Observable Statements
- "Laura thinks she is the boss" is not an observable statement.
Functional Analysis Certainty
- Functional analysis is less certain than descriptive functional assessment regarding results and requires higher response effort.
Applied Behavior Analysis
- The dimensions of applied behavior analysis were outlined by Baer, Wolf, and Risley in a seminal 1968 article.
Data Collection Methods
- Trials of criterion are effective in data collection for discrete trial training.
Modifications in Analysis
- BCBAs can adjust functional analysis conditions to meet a client's specific needs.
Scientific Method Steps
- Forming a hypothesis is not the first step in the scientific method.
Behavior Assessment
- Severe self-injury and aggression can be assessed via functional analysis despite safety concerns.
Data Collection Techniques
- Frequency is commonly used for data collection in functional analyses.
Behavior Function Classification
- Behavior functions include social and automatic classifications.
Behavior Change Methodology
- Successive approximations is linked to the shaping methodology in behavior change.
Data Collection Conservativeness
- Momentary Time Sampling is the most conservative discontinuous data collection method.
Learning Impact Considerations
- The impact of making errors is central in deciding between most-to-least and least-to-most prompting strategies.
Endurance Shaping
- Endurance is developed through gradual changes in duration requirements.
Targeting Behavior Chains
- BCBAs may focus on the first behavior in a predictable chain to effectively shape behavior.
ABC Data Grouping
- In descriptive functional behavior assessments, consequences are categorized into functional categories.
Establishing Operations
- Establishing operations relate to temporary emotional states and sensory processing challenges.
Antecedent-Based Approaches
- Antecedent-based methods tend to achieve quicker results than consequence-based methods.
Self Advocacy
- Self-advocacy encompasses decreasing dependence on others for resource access.
Escape Motivated Strategies
- Scheduled breaks serve as an antecedent control strategy for children motivated by escape.
Preventing Problem Behavior
- Providing choice-making opportunities and maintaining a consistent schedule can mitigate problem behaviors among children.
Preference and Reinforcement
- To confirm a preference as a reinforcer, behavior rates with and without the preferred item are compared.
Probe Session Purpose
- Probe sessions assess a skill's performance without prompts.
Task Analysis Teaching
- Chaining teaches by reinforcing steps in a task analysis sequentially.
Mand-Model Approach
- The Mand-Model method involves the educator observing a child's interest, modeling the correct behavior, and prompting the child to replicate.
Instructional Control Challenges
- Establishing instructional control in clinical settings may be more challenging than in natural environment training.
Natural Environment Concerns
- Natural environment teaching raises confidentiality and safety concerns compared to clinical services.
Reinforcement Categories
- Escape or avoidance behaviors fall under social negative reinforcement.
Continuing Study
- Further content was indicated for discussion or notes.
