behavior interventions plans as written as a BCBA)
True/False: An RBT can practice independently of a BCBA
False
Rate is...
the total count per a unit of time
Duration is...
the time from when the behavior begins to when it ends.
Latency is...
the time between the presentation of a stimulus and the occurrence of a behavior
Which of the following is a continuous recording method?
All of the above
(duration, rate/frequency, and latency)
calculate frequency/rate per hour and minute for a behavior that occurred 120
times over a 2 hour observation
60 per hour, 1 per minute
partial-interval recording is...
When the behavior must occur at least once during the interval to be recorded
Whole-interval recording is....
when the behavior must occur for the entire interval to be recorded.
Momentary time sampling is....
when the behavior must be occurring at the end of the interval to be recorded.
Inter-response time is...
The time between the end of one instance of the behavior and the beginning of the next
occurrence of behavior.
which recording method would you expect to use when a target behavior is set to
increase?
whole-interval recording
Which recording method would you expect to use when a target behavior is set to
decrease?
Partial-interval recording
true or false? Partial interval recording has the tendency to under-estimate the
frequency of a target behavior while whole interval recording has the tendency to
over-estimate the frequency of the target behavior?
False
Which of the following are examples of "permanent products" that can be used to
collect data using permanent product recording procedures.
Number of broken windows and folded shirts
True/False: permanent product recording is one of the lease cumbersome data
recording methods
, True
Choose the best operational definition for a tantrum
Any instance of the client crying and hitting himself in the head with a closed fist which
makes a sound that can be heard within five feet. Instance must last longer than 30
seconds and are separated by 30 seconds of non-occurrence.
Define behavior:
The activity of living organisms; human behavior includes everything that people do.
define environment:
the conglomerate of real circumstances in which the organism or references part of the
organism exists; behavior cannot occur in the absence of environment.
List the four functions of behavior:
Social positive (attention/access), Social negative (escaping), Automatic Positive
(sensory stimulation), Automatic Negative (pain attenuation)
A client gets out of his seat every time a demand is placed. When he gets out of
his seat his teacher says, "Oh you need a break", and does not follow through
with her demand. This client's out of seat behavior most likely serves what
function?
Social negative (escape)
A client frequently spits. You notice that he spits during work times, when he is
on a break, when he is playing with his favorite toys, during meal times, when you
or someone else is directly engaged with him, and even when he is by himself.
One day mom brings the client back from the dentist where he had to get 6
cavities filled. After this dentist appointment the spitting stopped. What function
does spitting most likely serve?
Automatic negative (pain attenuation)
Every time his mother removes items from him, a client engages in a tantrum.
Mom tries to ignore him but after around five minutes mom gives him back the
item she removed and the tantrum immediately stops. What function is most
likely maintaining the tantrums?
Social Positive (attention/access)
A client hits other students in his class during work and break times. Each time
he hits another students the teacher immediately provides a verbal reprimand.
What function does his hitting most like serve?
Social Positive (attention/access)
You work with a client who drops legos on the floor for hours if left alone. The
client does this even if others are playing with him, when no demands are being
placed, and when given free access to a number of preferred toys. What is the
function of the lego dropping behavior?
Automatic Positive (sensory stimulation)
What is an antecedent?
A stimulus that occurs before the behavior
What is a consequence?
A stimulus that occurs after the behavior
Why do we conduct assessments?
