RBT Exam 2 Questions and Correct Answers
(Verified Answers) Latest Top-Rated A+
graduated guidance
physical prompt is only provided when needed and the prompt is
faded immediately as the client responds correctly
time delay
give the SD, then delay when you give the client the prompt
(immediate, two second delay and four second delay)
stimulus prompts
stimuli used in conjunction with the task stimuli or instructional
materials (directly on the antecedent)
redundancy
one or more stimuli/response dimensions paired with correct
choice
positional
move a stimulus closer, or separate from other stimuli
response blocking
physically blocking client from making an incorrect response
prompt dependency
occurs when stimulus control has not been effectively transferred
(you fade prompts to avoid this)
discrete trial training (DTT)
basic teaching unit that has a distinct beginning and end, break
larger skills into smaller skills
distributed trial
type of DTT, rotates between tasks and programs within the same
teaching session
interspersed trial
interspersing mastered skills with acquisition skills within the
same teaching session
steps of DTT
, 1. gain attention
2. provide SD
3. insert prompt
4. individualized response
5. reinforcement/error correction
data points
individual points on a graph
phase change lines
solid vertical line that represents changes in treatment
level
data points in relation to vertical axis (splits in half): low,
moderate, high
trend
direction of the data: increasing, decreasing, or flat
discrimination training
training behavior that involves presenting 2 or more antecedent
stimuli, but only provide reinforcement in the presence of one of
them (sorting)
task analysis (TA)
breaks down complex behavior into a series of teachable
components: teach a task step by step
types of task analysis
forward chain
backward chain
total task
forward chain
teach first step until mastery, then 2nd, etc until all steps are
taught: start at beginning
backward chain
start at last step until mastery, then second to last, etc.
total task chain
give client the opportunity to do each step independently and one
at a time, help when needed
receptive language
ability to understand language (reading and listening skills)
