SHS 402 Exam 1 with Complete
Solutions 2024
Programming - ANSWER-Selection, Sequencing, Generalization
Behavior-Modification - ANSWER-systematic use of specific stimulus-response
consequence procedures
Key Teaching Strategies - ANSWER-Use of basic training techniques to facilitate
learning
Session Design - ANSWER-Organization and implementation of therapy sessions
including interpersonal dynamics. The client should experience success at each stage.
Data Collection - ANSWER-The systematic measurement of client performance and
treatment efficacy
Fundamental Principles - ANSWER-Programming, Behavior Modification, Key Teaching
Strategies, Session Design, Data Collection
The Ultimate Goal of intervention - ANSWER-To teach strategies for facilitating
communication; speech and language skills
Process of intervention - ANSWER-Identification, review existing knowledge of the
problem, hypotheses for how to solve, manipulation of variables, collection and analysis
of data, conclusions
Dynamic Process - ANSWER-clinician continuously assesses the patient's progress
toward goals and modifies as necessary.
Skills - ANSWER-required to achieve specific outcomes in given situations
Strategies - ANSWER-enable the individual to know when and how to use their skills in
new and varied learning contexts
Selection of Therapy Targets - ANSWER-Establish goals: Pretreatment guidelines,
developmental/normative strategy, client specific strategy
Sequencing Therapy Targets - ANSWER-Stimulus type, task mode, response level
Stimulus type - ANSWER-Direct, Concrete (objects, photographs, drawings), abstract
(oral and written language)
, Task mode - ANSWER-The type of clinician support to obtain desired response.
Imitation, Cue/Prompt, Spontaneous
Response Level - ANSWER-degree of difficulty of target response. increase length and
complexity. decrease latency between stimulus presentation and client response
Branching - ANSWER-technique used by clinician when client does not perform as
predicted. They must recognize when a task is too easy or too difficult. change one step
up or down based on therapy hierarchy
Generalization/carry over - ANSWER-client's ability to transfer newly masted behaviors
to everyday environment. variety of stimuli, physical environment, and audience.
Termination of Therapy - ANSWER-Attainment of communication skills for clients
developmental age. Attainment of functional communication skills to operate in daily
environment. Lack of progress
Do Statement - ANSWER-identifies the specific action the client is expected to perform
(produce /f/)
Condition - ANSWER-identifies the situation in which the target behavior is to be
performed (imitation)
Criterion - ANSWER-specifies how well the target behavior must be performed for the
objective to be achieved (90% accuracy)
Operant Conditioning - ANSWER-Stimulus, response, consequence
reinforcement - ANSWER-increase the probability that a particular behavior will recur
punishment - ANSWER-decrease the frequency of a behavior
positive reinforcement - ANSWER-presented when desired behavior is performed
Primary reinforcement - ANSWER-client reacts favorably. difficult to generalize outside
of therapy or reinforce after each occurance
secondary reinforcement - ANSWER-client is taught to perceive a thing as rewarding.
social, token, performance feedback
Negative reinforcement - ANSWER-an unpleasant event/condition is removed
contingent on the performance of a desired behavior
punishment reinforcement - ANSWER-an event is presented contingent on the
performance of an undesired behavior
