- Correct Answer - motivation
An antecedent intervention in which two to five tasks with a known
history of learner compliance are presented in quick succession
immediately before requesting the target task with a known history of
non-compliance is known as the _______________.
- Correct Answer - High probability request sequence
is an antecedent intervention package for establishing an appropriate
communicative behavior to compete with problem behaviors evoked by
an establishing operation (EO).
- Correct Answer - Functional communication training
,Meier et al. utilized the _______________ as an alternative intervention
for the often ethically questionable escape extinction procedures to
increase food acceptance.
- Correct Answer - High probability request sequence
Carr and Durand suggested that we conceptualize problem behavior not

as a form of __________________.
- Correct Answer - Communication
Preventing problem behavior via _______________ is not
recommended because there is a skill deficit; rather, it may be used in

the minimum level will influence resistance to extinction◦ "...resistance to
extinction is greater when extinction is carried out under high motivation
