4 Functions of Behavior
to gain an item or tangible
to gain automatic reinforcement

an environmental condition existing or occurring immediately before the behavior of
Antecedant
interest (ex: the setting, people they are around, the actions of people around them)

, when all the behaviors that are identified in the task analysis are done by the teacher
Backward chaining
except for the final behavior (Ex: drawing a smiley face)

operational, includes verbs describing behavior, objective + unambiguous, does not
Behavioral Definitions
rely on internal states (happy, sad), does not use labels (bad or good)

plans developed to guide parents, teachers and other paraprofessionals on how to
Behavior Intervention Plan decrease inappropriate behvaiors and teach or increase replacement behaviors in all
settings. Everyone who interacts with the individual should follow the plan

Contingency when the reinforcer is delivered only for the target behavior it is more effective

Continuous schedule used for learning new behaviors, the behavior is reinforced every time

Demand Fading incrementally increase demands you place on the student across several sessions

when a person hasn't had access to a particular reinforcer for a significant period of

Differential Reinforcement of Incompatible
problem behavior on extinction. The incompatible behavior is response blocked
Reinforcers (DRI)
while correct behavior is reinforced

reinforcing the absence of the problem behavior for a specific amount of time.
Differential Reinforcement of Other Always uses interval schedules, usually fixed. First take baseline data of the target
Behaviors (DRO) behavior. Start with an interval that will ensure success. Every interval without the
behavior is reinforced.

Direct Measurement observation of the behavior and recording it as it occurs

instead of relying on memory data is gathered immediately as the behavior occurs or

requires one response and two antecedant stimulus conditions. The response in the
Discrimination training presence of one stimulus is reinforced while a response in the presence of the other
is not. We are teaching them to make choices.

how long a behavior persists, should be used if you are trying to decrease how long

a behavior lasts

repeating what was heard, auditory SD/discriminative stimulus, the consequence is

object being said

if a child begins to emit an incorrect response, do not allow them to finish if possible.
You can prompt and show correct response as soon as you see them answering
Error correction
incorrectly. Than use your transfer trial to fade out the prompt, do a distractor trial
and come back to the SD as a test to see if they got it.
