QASP Study Guide with all Correct & 100% Verified
Answers |Already Graded A+
pivotal behavior ✔Correct Answer-A behavior that, when learned, produces corresponding
modifications or covariation in other untrained behaviors.
Pivotal Response Training (PRT) ✔Correct Answer-Targets increasing social-communicative
repertoires and the child's responsiveness to the environment.
Focuses not only on language, but also on motivation, self-regulation, responding to multiple cues,
and self-initiation of social interactions
functional communication training ✔Correct Answer-An antecedent intervention in which an
appropriate communicative behavior is taught as a replacement behavior for problem behavior
usually evoked by an establishing operation (EO).
TEACCH ✔Correct Answer-A well research program used with individuals with ASD. The program
emphasizes language development and uses a variety of visual cues to facilitate language
development.
Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP) ✔Correct Answer-Special education term used to describe the
written plan used to address problem behavior that includes positive behavioral interventions,
strategies and support. May include program modifications and supplementary aids and services.
functions of behavior ✔Correct Answer-What the client is accessing or escaping by engaging in the
problem behavior
Access, attention, escape, automatic
time-out ✔Correct Answer-A disciplinary technique in which a child is separated from other people
for a specified time.
Should only be used if the function of the problem behavior is attention (peer, adult).
Challenging behaviors ✔Correct Answer-Destructive and/or disruptive such as: hitting, screaming,
biting, and swearing.
positive programming ✔Correct Answer-longitudinal, instructional program designed to give the
learner greater skills and competencies for the purpose of controlling or eliminating problem
behavior in order to facilitate and enhance social integration. In this sense it is based on a functional
analysis of the preventing problem and involves the systematic manipulation of stimulus conditions,
consequences, instructional stimuli and other variables in an effort to establish the new, more
adaptive behavioral repertoire.
positive behavior support plan ✔Correct Answer-Typical plans involve an objective for the
intervention, prevention strategies, replacement behaviors, reinforcers, attention to what should not
be reinforced, and ways to monitor children's progress
delivering consequences ✔Correct Answer-immediacy
, operational definition ✔Correct Answer-a statement of the procedures used to define research
variables. The procedures included in definitions should be repeatable by anyone or at least by
peers.
onset and offset behavior ✔Correct Answer-Behavior must have a defined beginning and end
added to the definition. Doing so increases the strength of your intervention by increasing the
likelihood of accurate measurement
frequency/rate ✔Correct Answer-Ratio of count per observation time
baseline data ✔Correct Answer-information gathered by scientists to be used as a starting point to
compare changes after the implementation of the independent variable
topography ✔Correct Answer-what a behavior looks like
generallization ✔Correct Answer-intervention can only be deemed a success if change can be
shown in different environments and with multiple people
evidence based ✔Correct Answer-description of medical techniques or practices that are
supported by scientific evidence of their safety and efficacy, rather than merely on supposition and
tradition.
advocacy ✔Correct Answer-Quality advocacy services are person-centered and developed using a
co-production approach that aims to maximize the participation of people who use services and their
carers
person centered planning ✔Correct Answer-a method of planning for people with disabilities that
places the person and his family at the center of the planning process
seeks to build a support network, increase independence and connect to the community
Circle of support ✔Correct Answer-meeting of extended family, friends, service providers, etc. to
ensure well-being of a child about to age out of cps care
essential lifestyle plans ✔Correct Answer-ELP is a guided process for learning how someone wants
to live and for developing a plan to help make it happen. It's also:
A snapshot of how someone wants to live today, serving as a blueprint for how to support someone
tomorrow;
A way of organizing and communicating what is important to an individual;
A flexible process that can be used in combination with other person centered techniques;
A way of making sure that the person is heard, regardless of the severity of disability.
QASP will demonstrate ✔Correct Answer-trustworthiness, honesty, fairness and sincerity
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) ✔Correct Answer-A disorder characterized by deficits in social
relatedness and communication skills that are often accompanied by repetitive, ritualistic behavior.
ASD deficits ✔Correct Answer-Social interaction, communication, repetitive/restricitive beahviors
Triad of Impairments ✔Correct Answer-Deficits in reciprocal social interaction
Deficits in communication
