ABA SAFMEDS EXAM STUDY GUIDE

A-B-A DESIGN - Correct Answer✔️✔️-Withdrawal design; considerations: end on

baseline


A-B-A-B DESIGN - Correct Answer✔️✔️-Reversal design; an experiment reintroducing

the intervention enables the replication of treatment effects, which strengthens the

demonstration of experimental control.

Considerations: end on intervention phase

ABOLISHING OPERATION - Correct Answer✔️✔️-A motivating operation that

TEMPORARILY decreases the reinforcing effectiveness of a stimulus thereby having an

ABATIVE EFFECT on behavior

ACCURACY - Correct Answer✔️✔️-The extent to which observed values, the data

produced by measuring an event, match the true state, or true values, of the event as it

exists in nature

ALTERNATING TREATMENT DESIGN - Correct Answer✔️✔️-the rapid alternation of

two or more distinct treatments while their effects on the target behavior are measured

ANECDOTAL OBSERVATION - Correct Answer✔️✔️-a form of direct, continuous

observation in which the observer records a descriptive, temporally sequenced account

of all behavior(s) of interest and the antecedent conditions and consequences for those

behaviors as those events occur in the client's natural environment

ANTECDENT - Correct Answer✔️✔️-An environmental condition or stimulus change

existing or occurring prior to a behavior of interest.

AUTOMATIC REINFORCEMENT - Correct Answer✔️✔️-Reinforcement that occurs

independent of the social mediation of others (e.g., scratching an insect bite relieves the

itch).

AUTOMATICITY OF REINFORCEMENT - Correct Answer✔️✔️-behavior is modified by

its consequences irrespective of the person's awareness

AVERSIVE STIMULUS - Correct Answer✔️✔️-an unpleasant or noxious stimulus

AVOIDANCE CONTINGENCY - Correct Answer✔️✔️-contingency in which a response

prevents or postpones the presentation of a stimulus-

EX: opening an umbrella prevents presentation of rain

BASELINE LOGIC - Correct Answer✔️✔️-the experimental reasoning inherent in single

subject experimental designs; entails three elements: prediction, verification, and

replication.

BASELINE - Correct Answer✔️✔️-A condition of an experiment in which the independent

variable is not present; data obtained during baseline are the basis for determining the

effects of the independent variable/basis of comparison

a control condition that does not necessarily mean the absence of instruction or

treatment, only the absence of a specific independent variable of experimental interest.

BEHAVIOR - Correct Answer✔️✔️-the activity of living organisms, everything that an

organism does. " that portion of an organsim's interaction with its environment that is

characterized by detectable displacement in space through time of some part of the

organism and results in a measurable change in at least one aspect of the environment"

BEHAVIOR CHANGE TACTIC - Correct Answer✔️✔️-a consistent method for changing

behavior derived from one or more principles of behavior.

BEHAVIOR CHECKLIST - Correct Answer✔️✔️-a checklist that provides descriptions of

specific skills and the conditions under which each skill should be observed

BEHAVIOR TRAP - Correct Answer✔️✔️-An interrelated community of contingencies of

reinforcement that can be especially powerful, producing substantial and long-lasting

behavior changes.

BEHAVIORAL TRAP - Correct Answer✔️✔️-The phenomenon in which a change in one

component of a multiple schedule that increases or decreases the rate of responding on

that component is accompanied by a change in the response rate in the opposite

direction on the other, unaltered component of the schedule.

BEHAVIORAL CUSP - Correct Answer✔️✔️-a behavior that has sudden and dramatic

consequences that extend well beyond the idiosyncratic change itself because it

exposes the person to new environments, reinforcers, contingencies, responses, and

stimulus controls

BEHAVIORAL MOMENTUM - Correct Answer✔️✔️-A metaphor to describe a rate of

responding and its resistance to change following an alteration in reinforcement

conditions.

CELERATION - Correct Answer✔️✔️-the change (acceleration or deceleration) in rate of

responding over time

CHANGING CRITERION DESIGN - Correct Answer✔️✔️-An experimental Design in

which an initial baseline phase is followed by a series of treatment phases consisting of

successive and gradually changing criteria for reinforcement or punishment.

Experimental control is evidenced by the extent the level of responding changes to

conform to each new criterion.

COMPONENT ANALYSIS - Correct Answer✔️✔️-Experimental designs that combine

multiple baseline, reversal, and/or alternating treatment tactics can also provide the

basis for comparing the effects of two or more independent variables

CONDITIONAL PROBABILITY - Correct Answer✔️✔️-the likelihood that a target behavior

will occur in a given circumstance

CONDITIONED PUNISHER - Correct Answer✔️✔️-A previously neutral stimulus change

that functions as a punisher because of prior pairing with one or more other

punishersSometimes called secondary or learned punishers.
