Explain Diagonal seating
This is good when giving protocol
+gives proximity, privacy of protocol while allowing you to still see what the client sees
Explain seating across the table
This is good for worksheets, playing games, drawing
Explain side-by-side seating
you lose–eye contact, face to face, & privacy
-good for joint attention and hand over hand
Explain kidney table seating
- attend to more people
- gives you access to client(s) by touch
ex. Latino, Native Americans, African American families tended to prefer seating arrangements that allowed for group interaction
Explain cluster seating
better for young group interactions with toys/games
SLP chooses a semicircle for interactive purposes, but removes the table to achieve better proximity and increased ease in creating opportunities to facilitate interaction among clients
Explain mounted mirror seating
The SLP seats clients facing a large mirror that is mounted on the wall
- works well for clients who require a lot of visual feedback for artic but still have SLP as a model
- Highly visual seating arrangement
T/F Establishment phase is required due to regression-recoupment.
True
Occurs during notable times spans between therapy sessions, the level of accomplishment in the prior therapy session may no longer exist
What is regression-recoupment
a phenomena, where-by the level of success obtained in therapy in a previous session no longer exists due to the time between therapy sessions, and the amount of time it takes to again reach the prior level of performance
SO, the SLP must adjust plans and provide therapy at an appropriate level, most often at a lower level of accomplishment than intended
What is behavior management? (Ch. 5)

- Establish clinical objectives that are challenging but within clients capabilities
- deliver lessons or activities of the session effectively
- create a positive, supportive atmosphere within therapeutic setting
What are the 3 types of techniques?
low-intensity
medium intensity
high intensity
What are low-intensity behavioral management techniques ?
include establishing class rules using specific praise (specific to aspect of behavior) ignoring behaviors (planned and used to negate a disruptive behavior)
What are medium intensity behavioral management techniques?
include contingency contracting, token economy systems, and self-management strategies
ex. self monitoring, self eval, and self reinforcement
Explain contingency contracting
based on an agreement between the client and the SLP regarding expected client behavior within the therapeutic setting
explain dependent contingencies vs independent vs. interdependent
dependent: all group members share in the reinforcement if one individual achieves a goal
Interdependent: all group members are reinforces if all collectively achieve the stated goal
Independent: individuals within the group are reinforced for individual achievements toward a goal
