Question 14

Tim usually compliance with his teachers instructions and Completes all assigned tasks in school. Today, just as he was getting ready to leave for school, his dog ran away and he could not find it before he had to leave for school.

Ecological variable

Setting event

Answer 17

Ecological variable

Question 18

As may be seen in the previous ASR’s,
We translated the STRUCTURAL into FUNCTIONAL terms

To do so we had to look at EFFECTS of the EVENTS,
Look at the UNDERLYI NG mechanisms for the effects. And TIE them to the principles of behavior

Previous ASR’S

EO for positive reinforcement

SD for positive reinforcement

Answer 22

EO positive reinforcement

Question 23

Using an opiate blocker can be conceptualized as:

Extinction procedure

Both of these

Neither of these

Answer 23

Extinction procedure

Question 24

Why is noncontingent reinforcement NCR a misnomer

This is an extinction procedure

This is a punishment procedure

This is not a reinforcement procedure

All of the above

Answer 24

This is not a reinforcement procedure

Question 25

Which of the following is an example of a time based schedule? Giving a child a pistachio: The first time he engages in prosocial behavior provided at least 20 seconds have elapsed since the last time he was given a pistachio Every 20 seconds regardless of what he is doing For every 20 seconds during which he sits quietly At the end of each 20 second interval in which she does not engage in SIIB

Answer 25

Every 20 seconds regardless of what he is doing.

Which of the following is the most conceptually systematic term for time by schedules? Non-contingent delivery of a reinforcer Non-contingent delivery of reinforcement Time contingent delivery of a preferred stimulus Time contingent delivery every reinforcer

Answer 26

Time contingent delivery of a preferred stimulus

..Shaped compliance

Question 32

In the story of Danica, we use a big plastic bowl of soapy water and lime juice, presented it in the dining room, and asked her to play in the water to ship compliance with the Nancy to wash her hands in the bathroom. Plus we also gradually fade it in several stimuli. Initially using the plastic mail, etc. function as; AO for negative reinforcement EO for positive reinforcement SD for positive reinforcement Negative reinforcement Positive reinforcement

Providing assistance with the task may be conceptualized as a type of stimulus fading in, the one phase out the assistance. True or false

Answer 37

True

Question 38

Providing choice is an antecedent manipulation as the choice is given prior to the occurrence of the problem behavior and is not contingent on appropriate behavior. True Not really, as choice always involves current schedules of reinforcement
