PSY 7713 (Behaviour Analytic Interventions) – Quiz 1 Unit 5 with Answers – 92 out of 100 points Questions 1. An individual with mental retardation frequently engages in aggressive behavior when he wants a break from a task at work. When he engages in aggressive behavior, he is required to continue working on the task, but if he asks for a break his behavior is reinforced with a break from the task. Which variation of DRA is being used in this example? 2. Andrea is four years old and has limited communication skills. She often becomes noncompliant (says "No!", pulls away, and pouts in a corner) when she is told to sit at the table to work on less preferred learning activities. As her teacher, you believe that Andrea is trying to escape the tasks and that breaks from tasks will be an effective reinforcer for her. You want to implement DRA, because Andrea has limited communication skills. Which of the following would be an example of DRA using negative reinforcement? 3. Antecedent interventions are also known as: 4. Applied behavior analysts have used several labels to identify high-probability request sequences. All of these are included except: 5. Assume you are teaching a large group of students, and they are very disruptive during your class. For example, the students talk out of turn, laugh, and throw things at one another. You want to improve their behavior, so you decide to implement a DRA intervention. This means you will reinforce: 6. Behavior momentum is sometimes referred to as ______ request sequence. 7. Behaviors selected for a high-p request sequence should: 8. Effective use of functional communication training (FCT) includes: 9. Functional communication training is an application of this procedure: 10. Functional communication training is considered to be: 11. High-p sequence refers to: 12. If you want to use DRI to decrease Melinda's hitting other children in the hallway, you would: 13. To effectively implement a high-p request sequence, it is important to: 14. What is not an important consideration for using the high-p request sequence effectively? 15. What is the difference between DRI and DRA? 16. When implementing functional communication training (FCT), alternative responses can include: 17. When using a high-p sequence effectively, behaviors should be selected from the current repertoire and requests should be presented at a very slow, even pace. 18. When using the high-p sequence effectively: 19. Which antecedent control procedure is illustrated in this example? To make it less likely that she would eat junk food, Melissa removed all junk food from her house. 20. Which is true about the high-p sequence technique? 21. Which procedure can be used to develop stimulus control? 22. Which statement is false? 23. Which statement is true? 24. Which statement is true? 25. You are working with a student who is frequently out of his seat. You decide to provide the student with reinforcement every time he is in his seat for five consecutive minutes.
