Signals that reinforcement is available. - Sd Sometimes, behavior analysts will break down a complex chain of behaviors into smaller discrete steps to facilitate teaching. - Task analysis Start with least intrusive prompt. - Least to most prompting Start with most intrusive prompt. - Most to least prompting Teaching a task analysis by teaching the first step first. - Forward chaining Teaching the entire task analysis at once - Total talk The breakdown of a task into its individual components and steps. - Task analysis Time between two successive responses - Inter-response time Verbal behavior of requesting - Mand Verbal behavior with point-to-point correspondence - Echoic What are the four functions of behavior? - Sensory, Escape, Attention, and Tangibles What is a multiple relationship? - Having two different relationships with one client What occurs after the behavior? - Consequence What occurs before the behavior? - Antecedent What should Tilda do?
