Term
In which part of a behavior plan are Function Based Interventions included?
Definition
All sections -
Antecedent interventions are designed to change the MO
Interventions can be employed to teach replacement behaviors
Reinforcement strategies should make use of the functional reinforcer
Consequence-based strategies will vary depending on functional reinforcer
Term
function-based antecedent interventions
Definition
NCR, curricular revision, demand fading, ee
Term
function based replacement behavior interventions
Definition
FCT/DRA
Term
behavioral extinction
Definition
systematic interruption of the response-reinforcer contingency by witholding the reinforcer maintaining the behavior
Term
Why must you know the function of a behavior before implementing extinction?
Definition
May end up inadvertantly reinforcing a behavior if you are wrong
Term
Variables affection resistance to extinction
Definition
Schedule of reinforcement (intermittant more resistant)
Number, amount, and quality of reinforcers
Number of previous extinction trials
Effort - responses that require more effort will be less resistant
Term
Extinction is a critical component of most decelerative interventions
Definition
!
Term
functional communication training
Definition
differential reinforcement where reinforcer maintaining problem behavior is delivered contingent on an adaptive response while the problem behavior is placed on extinction
Term
Differential reinforcement
Definition
Reinforcement is delivered for one class of behavior and not delivered for another class
Typically involves an extinction procedure
Term
Differential reinforcement of incompatible behaviors DRI
Definition
Reinforcement is delivered for a behavior that cannot occur at the same time as the target behavior
Term
Differential reinforcement of Alternative Behaviors DRA
Definition
Reiforcers are delivered for behaviors that are different from the target behavior but oare not necessarily incompatible
Term
Behaviors reinforced by DRI/DRA should:
Definition
be previously acquired by the student
Require less than or equal response effort than the problem behavior
Occur frequently enough to contact reinforcement
Is likely to be reinforced naturally following the intervention
Term
Differential reinforcement of other behavior
Definition
reinforcement is provided for a response not occurring during a given interval
Intervals can be fixed or variable
Momentary DRO schedules may also be used
Reinforcement in DRO interventions may reinforce other inappropriate behaviors that are not specifically targeted
