Study Notes

Intervention Scenarios

  • Intervention strategies include prompting and reinforcing compliance, used in the case of Kim to improve math skills.
  • High-p request, extinction, and behavior momentum are techniques applied in educational settings to enhance student engagement.

Prompting Techniques

  • Effective prompting may involve subtle cues, such as glancing at the desired object to guide a child's response.

Behavior Interventions

  • Locking a toilet to prevent tissue stuffing is an extinction method addressing behavior maintained by automatic reinforcement.

Understanding Prompts

  • A prompt acts as an antecedent stimulus, intended to elicit specific behavior in learners.

Data Collection and Behavior Assessment

  • Questions posed by a BCBA regarding a child's behavior patterns and triggers are somewhat acceptable in understanding behavioral function.

Reinforcement and Behavior

  • Positive reinforcement occurs when a behavior increases due to the presentation of a favorable consequence, observable in Franklin's barking response.

Accidental Learning in Toilet Training

  • The correlation between the fit of pants and toilet training success suggests the child may struggle with buttoned pants, rather than behavioral intent.

Branches of Behavior Analysis

  • Recognized branches of behavior analysis include conceptual analysis of behavior, applied behavior analysis (ABA), behavior service delivery, and experimental analysis of behavior.

Data Collection Methods

  • Whole interval time sampling is suitable for tracking the duration of engagement within a specific proximity to peers during social interactions.

Terminology in Operant Conditioning

  • Terms such as Stimulus-Response-Stimulus Model and ABC framework describe operant behavior and its components.

Types of Behavior

  • Habituation represents a respondent behavior, while adaptation is classified as operant behavior.

Differential Reinforcement

  • Differential reinforcement can take various forms (DRH, DRO, DRD), whereas DRF is not recognized as a type.
