EDF 6223 EXAM 2 ACTUAL SCRIPT 2026
COMPLETE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
GRADED A+
◉ Differential Reinforcement of Low Rates of Responding.
Answer: Use to decrease the frequency of the occurrence of a
behavior, but not eliminate it all together
◉ Fixed-interval DRO (FI-DRO).
Answer: ◦ Omission requirement is applied at the end of successive
time intervals of equal duration
◉ Extinction.
Answer: is a procedure that decreases the future frequency of a
behavior because reinforcement of that previously reinforced
behavior is discontinued.
◉ reinforcers.
Answer: Because extinction is an often-misused word in ABA,
behavior analysts should only use the term to identify the procedure
of withholding _______________ that maintained a behavior
◉ functional.
,Answer: The procedural forms of extinction, i.e. ignoring, are
different and not as effective as the
_______________ variations of extinction.
◉ removal.
Answer: Behaviors maintained by negative reinforcement are said to
be placed on extinction when that behavior no longer produces
the_______________ of the aversive stimulus.
◉ extinction.
Answer: _______________ produces a gradual decrease in behavior
except when the reinforcement is removed abruptly.
◉ automatic reinforcement.
Answer: Using extinction with behaviors linked to _______________ is
not recommended to treat problem behaviors.
◉ reinforcement.
Answer: To be effective with using extinction, the behavior analyst
must make sure that all reinforcers are withheld, that _______________
is withheld consistently, and that the extinction procedure is
combined with other procedures.
◉ reinforcing; reinforcement.
, Answer: All applications of differential reinforcement
involve_______________ one response class while withholding
_______________ from another.
◉ incompatible.
Answer: DRA procedures use reinforcement when a behavior is a
desirable alternative to the target behavior but not necessarily
_______________.
◉ reperotoire.
Answer: To improve the effectiveness of DRA and DRI, the behavior
analyst should make sure that the skills needed to do the desired
behaviors are in the learner's _______________.
◉ time.
Answer: A practitioner using DRO would deliver a reinforcer after a
behavior has not occurred within a specified _______________; this is
also known as DR of zero responding.
◉ duration.
Answer: Researchers found that manipulating the dimensions of
reinforcement along the lines of _______________, quality, or delay when
extinction could not be used.
