100% GRADED A+
independent variable
Specific manipulations of another event
Dependent Variable
Functional relations can be derived by specific changes in one event
4 Term Contingencies (reinforcement)
EO->SD-> Response-> Reinforcing stimulus
4 Term Contingencies (punishment)
MO-> Antecedent-> behavior-> consequence
Response Cost
Form of punishment in which the loss of a specific amount of reinforcement occurs,
contingent on the performance of an inappropriate behavior and results in the
decreased probability of the future occurrence of the behavior
Restitution Overcorrection
When the learned must repair the damage caused by the problem behavior and then
bring the environment back to a condition that is notably improved than before the
behavior occurred
Response Blocking
Intervening as soon as the behavior starts to prevent the completion of the response
Response interruption and redirection
, A procedural variation of response blocking that includes interrupting stereotypic
behavior at onset and redirecting the individual to do high-p requests instead
Reprimands
Any verbal/sound consequence that decreases the likelihood of the behavior occurring
in the future
Nonexclusive Timeouts Examples
Planned ignoring, withdrawal of a specific positive reinforcer, contingent observation,
Time-out Ribbon
Nonexclusive Timeout
Should be the first choice
Contingent on the occurrence of the target behavior, the participant remains physically
within the time-in setting, but elements of that setting are so... opportunity to earn
reinforcers is removed, a specific reinforcer is terminated, repositioning, removed to a
different space
Overcorrection
Contingent on each occurrence of the problem behavior, the learner is required to
engage in effortful behavior that is directly or logically related to the problem behavior
Positive Practice Overcorrection
Repeatedly Perform a correct form of the behavior or a behavior incompatible with the
problem behavior
Escape
A response terminates an ongoing stimulus
Example of Escape
