SPCE 611: Chapter 27: FunctionalBehavior Assessment
Brief functional analysis - correct answer ✔An analysis in which only one or
two 5- to 10- min sessions are conducted for each condition. A convincing
demonstration of function. may be achieved by either alternating a condition
that produces problem behavior with one that does not or conducting a
contingency reversal. Brief functional analysis may reveal a functional relation
in fewer sessions than a full functional analysis.
conditional probability - correct answer ✔The likelihood that a target behavior
will occur in a given circumstance; computed by calculating (a) the proportion
of occurrences of behavior that were preceded by a specific antecedent
variable and (b) the proportion of occurrences of problem behavior that were
followed by a specific consequence. Conditional probabilities range from 0.0
to 1.0; the closer the conditional probability is to 1.0, the stronger the
relationship is between the target behavior and the antecedent/consequence
variables.
contingency reversal - correct answer ✔Exchanging the reinforcement
contingencies for two topography different responses. For example, if
Behavior A results in reinforcement on a FR 1 schedule of reinforcement and
Behavior B results in reinforcement being withheld (extinction), a contingency
reversal consists of changing the contingencies such that Behavior A now
results in extinction and Behavior B results in reinforcement on an FR 1
schedule.
contingency space analysis - correct answer ✔A graphic display of the
probability of one event (e.g., particular consequence) given the occurrence
(or not) of another event (e.g., the presence or absence of a particular
behavior). Contingencies are considered positive (i.e., a specific consequence
is more likely to occur), negative (i.e., a specific consequence is less likely to
occur), or neutral (i.e., specific consequences is neither more or less likely to
occur).
