The goal of functional behavioral assessment is to: - answer✔identify the function of undesirable
behavior
When the function of the problem behavior is understood in terms of linking setting events and
immediate antecedents with the behavior and its consequences in a summary statement, it is possible
to: - answer✔effectively develop a multi-component support plan designed to make the problem
behavior irrelevant, inefficient, and ineffective
Too often people providing behavioral support conduct an FBA and then: - answer✔move on to
implementing interventions without linking their interventions to the function of the problem behaviors
they are attempting to eliminate
Proactive and preventative interventions may focus on: - answer✔-antecedents
-setting events
Teaching strategies may be implemented to replace undesirable behaviors with more -
answer✔adaptive alternative behaviors
When the intervention is based on the function of the undesirable behavior, consequence interventions
may be used to: - answer✔both weaken the maintaining consequences for problem behavior and
strengthen the consequences for desired alternative and replacement behaviors
When the selection of an intervention is not linked to the function of problem behavior, it is: - answer✔-
more likely to be ineffective
-may make the problem worse
Topography of the problem behavior is: - answer✔what the observable behavior is
Which of the following is an example of topography of behavior? - answer✔-hitting
-running out of the room
-kicking
Topography of behavior: - answer✔is different from the function of the behavior
The same topography of a problem behavior such as hitting may: - answer✔serve different functions
Without knowing the function of the behavior, the effectiveness of an intervention: - answer✔will be
"hit or miss"
Which is our most effective strategy for creating lasting changes in behavior? - answer✔teaching new
skills
Knowing the function of problem behavior allows teachers, family, and others to: - answer✔teach
appropriate skills and behaviors that can serve the same function as problem behavior, and thereby
work as replacement behavior
The goal of selecting intervention procedures is: - answer✔-to organize a cluster of changes in the
setting that will reduce the likelihood of the problem behavior, that will increase the likelihood of the
alternative appropriate behavior paths, and that fits the values, resources, and skills of the people who
must implement the procedures
-to specify a single technique that is expected to eliminate the problem behavior
Replacement behaviors should: - answer✔serve the same function as the problem behavior
Problem behavior is linked to which of the following negative outcomes? - answer✔-restrictive
interventions
-academic underachievement
Effective, reinforcement-based interventions for problem behavior require knowledge of the
environmental determinants of that problem behavior. - answer✔true
Research shows the trial-based FA shows promise as an alternative when traditional FAs cannot be
conducted. - answer✔true
Which of the following is true about the trial-based FA? - answer✔The trial-based FA includes only a
single opportunities for problem behavior to occur per trial segment.
Which of the following are differences between the trial-based FA and the traditional FA? - answer✔-
traditional FA sessions are conducted one after another, typically in a controlled environment over the
course of a few hours.
-the trial-based FA does not include a generic control condition.
-traditional FAs are session based.
-trial-based FAs are divided into test and control segments with the motivating operation present and
absent, and responding is compared across these segments to identify function.
Behaviorists have developed treatment strategies designed to decelerate problem behavior(s),
including: - answer✔-extinction
Problem behavior(s) can be reduced through FCT. - answer✔true
Self-injurious behavior is typically characterized as learned behavior maintained by its reinforcing
consequences. - answer✔true
Analysis of the consequences that maintain SIB is possible and treatment may be derived from results of
the assessment. - answer✔true
Treatment of multiply controlled behavior is relatively uncomplicated. - answer✔False
When treating multiply controlled problem behavior, practitioners should remain sensitive to
momentary changes in controlling variables in order to implement the correct treatments and avoid
exacerbating the problem. - answer✔True
Extremely variable data suggest inadequate control by experimental procedures. Which of the following
variables may produce these results? - answer✔-interaction effects between assessment conditions
-failure to identify idiosyncratic contingencies of reinforcement
-intermittent schedules of reinforcement in the natural setting
Functional properties of self-injurious behavior often vary among individuals. - answer✔true
Skinner (1953) proposed the term multiple control to describe which of the following? - answer✔two or
more operants
Cases of multiply controlled behavior disorders appear rarely in the literature because these cases are
uncommon and are rarely seen by practitioners. - answer✔False
Treatment of multiply controlled behavior is complicated because: - answer✔treatments appropriate for
behavior with certain functional properties may exacerbate behavior maintained in other ways
Why is automatically reinforced behavior typically identified through inference rather than through
direct experimental manipulation? - answer✔automatic reinforcement is less amenable to experimental
manipulation
Demonstration of experimental control is often required in clinical practice. - answer✔False
