RBT QUESTIONS WITH COMPLETE
SOLUTIONS
Reinforcement - answer-an event that occurs after a behavior
Reinforcer - Answer-Item or Activity delivered after and increases the the behavior is
called:
Differential Reinforcement - Answer-when you combine reinforcement with extinction to
increase one desirable behavior, while at the same time decreasing the undesirable
behavior
Value, Effort, Rate, Magnitude - Answer-What does VERMI stand for
Modeling - Answer-may not be an effective teaching procedure for individuals who don't
readily imitate
Instructional Control - Answer-having a positive relationship with the learner, comes
after pairing
Video Modeling - Answer-using taped sequences as examples of behavior the teacher
wants the student to imitate
self video modeling - Answer-when the student views themselves as the example of
behavior
Given in large quantities, so they contact lots of reinforcement in a short amount of time
- Answer-A reinforcer should not be:
Prompt Fading - Answer-used to reduce assistance to a less intrusive prompt
Stimulus Fading - Answer-Highlighting a physical dimension of a stimulus to increase
the likelihood of a correct response, then the highlighted dimension is faded out
Color, size, position - Answer-What are 3 dimensions in stimulus fading that can be
highlighted?
True - Answer-T/F Pairing can take days or weeks depending on the childs learning
history
Task Analysis - Answer-Breaking skills into smaller, teachable units, the product of
which is a series of sequentially ordered steps
MAND - Answer-Vocal Request
, Intraverbal - Answer-If someone asks 'what kind of pet do you want?' and the person
responds 'fish.' Which operant is that?
TACT - Answer-person sees a fish and says fish
ECHOIC - Answer-someone says fish, and the learner repeats fish
Forward Chaining - Answer-teaching a task from beginning to end in its naturally
occurring order
backwards chaining - Answer-teacher identifies all the behaviors in the task analysis
except for the last step
Motivation - Answer-Mands are controlled by?
Sanitize the environment - Answer-Create a state of deprivation
Deprivation, Immediacy, Size, Contingency - Answer-What does DISC stand for?
Pure Mand - Answer-When learner is requesting things that are out of sight
Scrolling - Answer-Learner goes through variety of vocalizations to reach correct one,
listing until correct
Value: strength of motivation, Effort: how hard does learner have to work Rate: Rate of
reinforcement impacts response Magnitude: size of the reinforcement Immediacy: How
quickly the learner is reinforced - Answer-what does VERMI stand for
DRA - Answer-a learner gets up and down out of his seat. His therapist reinforces the
child whenever he is sitting in his seat, this is an example of?
Omission Training - Answer-Differential Reinforcement of Other behaviors is also
called?
DRO - Answer-what form of differential reinforcement is time dependent?
Put on Extinction - Answer-In differential Reinforcement procedures, Problem behaviors
are put on what?
Withholding Reinforcement to eliminate a behavior - Answer-Define Exctinction
Delivery of Reinforcement when target behavior hasnt occurred during a specific time -
Answer-Define DRO
