BACB 5th Edition Task ListTreatment plan - correct answer the accuracy and consistency with which each component of the treatment or intervention plan is implemented Replacement behavior - correct answer Any type of positive and appropriate behavior that you teach a learner that will give access to that same reinforcement Naturalistic teaching - correct answer procedure used to help learners generalize the skills they are learning through their ABA program. Using the natural environment to generalize learned skills into natural, every day use Simple Discrimination - correct answer Any difference in responding in the presence of different stimuli; in a more restricted usage, a difference resulting from differential consequences of responding in the presence of different stimuli. task analysis - correct answer The process of breaking a complex skill or series of behaviors into smaller, teachable units; also refers to the results of this process. Shaping - correct answer the process of teaching a new behavior gradually by rewarding behaviors that progressively come close to the target behavior Instruction - correct answer When a rule says something about how we should respond Rule - correct answer a verbal description of a contingency variable ratio - correct answer reinforce roughly every nth response rule-governed behavior - correct answer behavior that is the result of known rules What are the different partial reinforcements? - correct answer fixed ratio, variable ratio, fixed interval, variable interval technological - correct answer procedures are described clearly & concisely so that others can replicate them behavioral - correct answer observable and measurable behaviors are targeted. selecting the current behavior, must be measurable. when behavior changes, must determine if the subjects behavior changed or if the observer or other participants behavior has changed Professional practice guided by the science of behavior analysis - correct answer the delivery of interventions to consumers that are guided by the principles of behaviorism and the research of both the experimental analysis of behavior and applied behavioral anaylsis Experimentation - correct answer a carefully conducted comparison of a dependent variable under 2 or more different conditions in which only the independent variable varies from one condition to another Mand - correct answer A request. The learner communicates what they want or need Echoic - correct answer repeating verbally. the learner repeats what they heard Listener responding - correct answer following directions. the learner responds to the request of another person in the form of an action Visual perception match-to sample (VPMTS) - correct answer The learner sorts and matches like items. Advantages of single subject experimental design - correct answer Potential to increase the success of treatments for individuals, effective in finding cause/effect relationships, only one participant is needed, thus reducing the need of standardized treatments like in group research, observe long lasting effects which would usually be tested using group research Disadvantages of single subject experimental design - correct answer difficult to generalize as individual differences could have a major impact on the effectiveness of intervention, reliance on groups for
