SPCE 611 exam 6antecedent intervention - correct answer ✔A behavior change strategy that
manipulates contingency-independent antecedent stimuli (motivating
operation).
behavioral momentum - correct answer ✔A metaphor to describe a rate of
responding and its resistance to change following an alteration in
reinforcement conditions. The momentum metaphor has also been used to
describe the effects produced by the probability request sequence
fixed-time schedule (FT) - correct answer ✔A schedule for the delivery of
non-contingent stimuli in which a time interval remains the same from one
delivery to the next.
Functional Communication Training (FCT) - correct answer ✔An antecedent
intervention in which an appropriate communicative behavior is taught as a
replacement behavior for problem behavior usually evoked by an establishing
operation (EO); involves differential reinforcement of alternative behavior
(DRA).
high-probability (high-p) request sequence - correct answer ✔An antecedent
intervention in which two to five easy tasks with a known history of learner
compliance (the high-p requests) are presented in quick succession
immediately before requesting the target task, the low-p request.
Noncontingent Reinforcement (NCR) - correct answer ✔A procedure in
which stimuli with known reinforcing properties are presented on a fixed-time
(FT) or variable-time (VT) schedules completely independent of behavior;
often used as an antecedent intervention to reduce problem behavior.
,variable-time schedule - correct answer ✔A schedule for the delivery of
noncontingent stimuli in which the interval of time from one delivery to the next
randomly varies around a given time.
- on a VT 1 minute schedule, the delivery-to-delivery interval might range from
5 seconds to 2 minutes, but the average would be 1 minute
functions of antecedent stimuli or events can be classified as - correct answer
✔contingency dependent, stimulus control, or contingency independent, MO
because of the temporary effects of the MOS, antecedent interventions most
often serves as - correct answer ✔one component of a multi-component
treatment package, in which antecedent interventions are paired with
extinction, DR or other procedures)
NCR uses 3 distinct procedures that identify and deliver stimuli with known
reinforcing properties - correct answer ✔1. postive reinforcement, social
mediation
2. negative reinforcement, escape
3. automatic reinforcement, without social mediation
an NCR enriched environment may function as an - correct answer
✔abolishing operation, reducing motivation to engage in the problem behavior
To apply the high-p request sequence, - correct answer ✔the teacher selects
2-5 short tasks with which the learner has a history of compliance. These
short tasks can provide the responses for the high-p requests. The teacher
presents the high-p request sequence immediately before requesting the
target task, the low-p request
FCT is an antecedent intervention package for establishing - correct answer
✔an appropriate communicative behavior to compete with problem behaviors
, evoked by an EO. rather than altering the value of EOS as doe NCR and high-
p request sequence, FCT develops alternative behaviors that are sensitive to
the EOs that maintain the problem behavior
the alternative communicative response produces the reinforcer that has -
correct answer ✔maintained the problem behavior, making the
communicative response functionally equivalent to the problem behavior
Noncontingent reinforcement functions as a: - correct answer ✔Abolishing
operation
SD's evoke - correct answer ✔evoke behavior due to past correlation with
increased availability of reinforcement
MOs - correct answer ✔increase current frequency of behavior when an
effective reinforcer is not available
Categories for functions of antecedent stimuli - correct answer
✔Contingency dependent- SD
Contingency independent- MO
Contingency dependent- SD - correct answer ✔-Antecedent event is
dependent on the consequences of behavior for developing evocative &
abative effects
-All stimulus control functions are contingency dependent
-Referred to as antecedent control
Contingency independent- MO - correct answer ✔-Antecedent event is not
dependent on the consequences of behavior for developing evocative &
abative effects
