Study Notes
Punishment and Behavior Management
- Punishment is defined as a response followed by a stimulus change that decreases the future probability of that response.
- Positive punishment can be exemplified by saying "no" in response to undesirable behavior.
- Negative punishment occurs when a token is removed as a consequence of behavior.
- Unconditioned punishers, like a bad odor, are naturally aversive stimuli.
- Conditioned punishers derive their effectiveness from past experiences and conditioning.
- Effectiveness of punishers is affected by immediacy and the schedule of reinforcements available.
Aberrant Behavior and Definitions
- Aberrant behavior refers to actions that could harm oneself or others.
- Stereotypic behaviors can hinder learning opportunities.
- Reports indicate that up to 50% of individuals with ASD exhibit self-injurious behavior.
- Operational definitions entail describing behaviors in observable terms for clarity in measurement and evaluation.
Functional Analysis and Behavior Assessment
- Functional analysis includes assessing behaviors through conditions like escape, tangible, attention, and control.
- Indirect measures of behavior rely on second-hand observation, while direct measures involve collecting A-B-C data firsthand.
- The primary goal of a functional behavior assessment is to identify the function behind the behavior.
Proactive and Reactive Procedures
- Proactive strategies aim to make learning enjoyable and engaging, while reactive procedures focus on momentum during interventions.
- Effective behavior plans must include measurement systems and clear definitions of behaviors.
Extinction and Its Effects
- Extinction is the process of discontinuing reinforcement, leading to a decrease in behavior frequency.
- Reinforcement should accompany extinction procedures to support positive behavior changes.
- Extinction can initially cause an increase in targeted behavior, known as an extinction burst, followed by potential resurgence.
Time-Out and Ethical Considerations
- The principle behind time-out is punishment; ensuring high-quality time-in is crucial for effectiveness.
- Different types of time-out (exclusionary and non-exclusionary) dictate whether a learner is removed from the environment or remains present.
- Ethical considerations play a major role in implementing time-out strategies.
Reinforcement Strategies
- Differential reinforcement is crucial, including:
- DRA (Differential Reinforcement of Alternative behaviors) promotes engaging in alternate behaviors.
- DRI (Differential Reinforcement of Incompatible behaviors) encourages behaviors that cannot coexist with undesired behaviors.
- DRO (Differential Reinforcement of Other behaviors) reinforces the absence of aberrant behaviors.
- DRL (Differential Reinforcement of Low rates) rewards lower occurrences of behavior.
Behavioral and Script-Based Interventions
- Manipulating consequence values falls under antecedent-based procedures.
- Behavioral momentum involves transitioning from preferred tasks to non-preferred tasks to facilitate engagement.
- Script fading helps learners enhance conversation and social skills through structured phrases or scripts.
Effective Interventions and Training
- Social skill groups are a useful strategy within the Autism Partnership Method for reducing aberrant behavior.
- Frustration tolerance promotes coping skills through graded exposure to challenging events.
- Restraint requires additional specialized training before implementation, with individualized crisis plans necessary for effective behavior management.
