SPCE 609 Quiz 1 (Modules 1 & 2) UPDATED ACTUAL QUESTIONS AND CORRECT
ANSWERS
, Dimensions of ABA 1. Applied
2. Behavioral
3. Analytic
4. Conceptually Systematic
5. Technological
6. Effective
7. Generality
Applied investigates socially significant behaviors with immediate importance to the
subject(s).
Behavioral - Precise measurement of the actual behavior in need of improvement &
documents that it was the participant's behavior that changed.
- The behavior in need of improvement and it is a study of behavior (not about
behavior)
- The behavior must be measurable
- Important to note whose behavior has changed
Analytic Demonstrates experimental control over the occurrence and nonoccurrence of
the behavior—that is, if a functional relation is demonstrated.
Technological Written description of all procedures in the study is sufficiently complete and
detailed to enable others to replicate it
Conceptually systematic behavior change interventions are derived from basic principles of behavior
Effective improves behavior sufficiently to produce practical results for the
participant/client.
Generality Produces behavior changes that last over time, appear in other environments, or
spread to other behaviors.
Stating contingencies tests 1. Whose behavior test
2. Receiver Test
3. Specific-Behavior Test
4. Dead-Person test
5. Action test
6. outcome change test
7. related outcomes test
8. sixty-second test
9. causality test
10. event test
Whose Behavior Test if we want to analyze a behavior, we must state whose behavior it is
Receiver test Is the behaver the receiver of the outcome (after condition)?
Specific-Behavior Test Is it perfectly clear exactly what action is involved in the behavior?
Dead Person's Test If a dead person can "do" it, it is NOT behavior
