CBMT Exam
data-based model
An approach based on information retrieved through experimentation or direct
observation
reversal design (ABAB design)
A single subject, applied behavior analysis design which generally involves observing
behavior during baseline, treatment, a return to baseline, and treatment reapplied.
Psychodynamic treatment model
By Freud; unconscious material is root of problems, focuses on analysis of thought; free
association and Rorschach test
Biomedical treatment model
biological factors are the underlying cause of disorders
successive approximations
Behaviors which gradually resemble the target behavior or terminal objective
schedule of reinforcement
The behavioral requirements for a reinforcing stimulus to be delivered. Schedules may
be fixed or variable based on interval or ratio criteria
Fading
The gradual removal of all explicit prompts or cues in an attempt to maintain the
behavior on its own
Holistic theory
Evaluation of emotional, physical, spiritual, psychological, and social dimensions
because all make up the whole person
Behavioral treatment model
By Skinner. All behaviors are learned, so all behaviors can be unlearned or replaced by
new behaviors. Task analysis and reinforcement schedule
reinforcement schedule
fixed ratio, variable ratio, fixed interval, variable interval
classical conditioning
Pavlovian technique pairing neutral stimulus with a meaningful stimulus
randomized group design
Experimental design that randomly assigns subjects to treatment or control conditions to
compare performance
occipital lobe
Region of the cerebral cortex that processes vision and perception
monoplegia
paralysis of one limb
paraplegia
paralysis of both legs and the lower part of the body
quadriplegia
paralysis of all four limbs
hallucination
Perception of sensory input, often sounds or tactile sensations, which are not occurring
in reality
, Frequency recording
Records number of times a target behavior occurs
Duration Recording
Recording technique that measures how long a particular behavior lasts during a given
period
Individualized Education Program (IEP)
Individualized plan for children with disabilities who qualify for special education
services; functions as blueprint for determining best possible educational program for
each child
Primary aging
Systematic, genetically determined decline in efficiency of body's organ systems
accountability
Process by which one is responsible and answerable for obligation to a set of
constituenies
parallel play
Characterizes a stage of development in which very young children will play beside
each other but not engage in social interaction
discrimination
Ability to tell difference between stimuli
DAP
Sandardized form of note taking. Data, assessment, plan
SOAP
Standardized form of note taking. Subjective, objective, assessment, plan
MMPI
The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory. Assesses personality traits and
psychopathology. Primarily used for diagnosis
Countertransference
The therapist projection of own feelings, ideas, and desires about other people and/or
things onto the client
Down Syndrome
Congenital abnormality of trisomy 21 gene (extra chromosome) resulting in
developmental disability and physical abnormalities
Hyperactivity
Increased and/or excessive muscular activity
positive reinforcement
the presentation of a stimulus resulting in an increase in the behavior it follows
Hyperacusis
Extreme sensitivity to sounds. Associated with a responsiveness to music and an ability
to make fine auditory discriminations
validity
the degree to which a test measures what it is supposed to measure
presbycusis
Age-related gradual hearing loss
Insight Therapy
