Exam 2 edf 6226 study guide
1. 4 functions of behavior: attention, escape, tangible, alone
2. Social Positive Reinforcement SR+ is also known as: attention
3. Automatic Positive reinforcement provides what?: sensory stimulation
4. A behavior is assumed to be maintained by only
after social reinforcers have been ruled out: automatic reinforcement
5. Behaviors that directly terminate aversive stimulation are therefore main- tained by that is an
automatic outcome of the response-
: negative reinforcement
6. Automatic reinforcement terminates stimuli: negative;
aversive
7. can account for behaviors that are either appropriate or
harmful: Automatic negative reinforcement
8. enables hypotheses about the relations among specific types of environmental events and
behaviors: FBA
9. FBA's are designed to obtain information about the ( )a
behavior serves for a person: purposes; functions
10.What is used to identify the type and source of reinforcement for challeng- ing behaviors as the basis for
intervention to decrease the occurrences of those behaviors?: FBA
11.3 strategic approaches of an FBA: Alter antecedent variables, alter conse- quent variables, teach alternative
behaviors
12.What is the overarching term for the type of assessment used to hypothe- size the relations among
environmental events and behaviors?: FBA
13.3 methods of an FBA: Functional (experimental) analysis, descriptive assess- ments, indirect assessment
14.What is the ONLY method of an FBA that allows practitioners to confirm hypotheses regarding
functional relations between problem behavior and environmental events?
-indirect assessments
-descriptive assessment
-Functional (experimental) analysis: Functional (experimental) analysis
15.What method is being used when antecedents and consequences repre- senting those in the person's natural
environment are arranged so that their separate effects on problem behavior can be observed and measured?:
Func- tional analysis
16.functional analysis is also known as : Analog
17.In an FA, the and similar to those occurring in the natural
routines are presented in a manner, but the analysis is not

conducted in the context of naturally occurring routines: antecedents; conse- quences; systematic
18.4 conditions presented in a FA: 3 test conditions and 1 control condition
19.3 test conditions presented in an FA: attention, escape, alone
20.What is happening in the control condition of an FA: No demands placed and reinforcement is freely
available
21.Each test condition of an FA contains a and a potential
source of for problem behavior: motivating operation; reinforcement
22.problem behavior is expected to be in the "play" condition (aka the control
condition): Low
23.Limitations of FA's include: strengthening undesired behaviors, limited ac- ceptability, some behaviors may
not be appropriate for an FA, naturally occurring variables go undetected, time and effort
24.The primary advantage of an FA is its ability yield a
of the variables that influence the occurrence of a problem behavior: clear demonstration
25.Variations of FA procedures include
1)
2) Conducting FA in
3) - contingency anaylsis (aka IISCA)
4) - FA
5) FA of : brief functional analysis; natural setting; interview-informed synthesized; latency
based FA; precursors
26.in a only one ot two 5-10 minute sessions are conducted for each
condition: brief functional analysis
27.When should a brief FA be used?: time restraint or severity of problem behav- ior
28.A is when the practitioner first makes the putative rein- forcer contingent on one
target behavior and then on an appropriate replace- ment behavior.: contingency reversal
29.Advantage of a brief functional analysis: reveals a function clearly in fewer sessions than a full FA
30.a FA consists of a series of trials interspersed among classroom activities: trial
based
31.What variation is best suited for ongoing activited?: trial based FA
32.In the test condition of the IISCA, contingencies are implement- ed
simultaneously when the problem behavior occurs. in the control contin- gency, those same reinforcers are
presented and -
: multiple; non contingently; continuously
