Aba Final Exam

Front 1

Functional Assessment

Back 1

Gather information. Observe & interview to investigate challenging behaviour

Front 2

Hypothesis

Back 2

PBS. Guess to why person uses escape or attention behaviour

Front 3

Functional Analysis

Back 3

Testing hypothesis to see if you're correct in guess

Front 4

Positive Test

Back 4

Provide situation where you believe behaviour should occur to test hypothesis

Front 5

Negative Test

Back 5

Provide situation where you think behaviour won't happen to test hypothesis

Front 6

Challenging Behaviour Variables

Back 6

Curricular, environment, health/medical/personal, social

Front 7

6 Functions of Inappropriate Behaviour

Back 7

Gain Attention, Gain tangible, gain sensory stimuli, escape attention, escape tasks, escape internal stimuli

Front 8

Informant Assessment

Back 8

Indirect strategies for gathering information. (Interviews)

Front 9

Descriptive Assessment

Back 9

Direct observation strategies for gathering information. (Reports, baselines)

Front 10

DRL

Back 10

Differential Reinforcement Lower Rates of Behaviour: reinforce to decrease behaviour that is inappropriate in large amounts

Front 11

DRO

Back 11

Differential Reinforcement Other Behaviour: reinforce only zero occurence of behaviour in set time period

Front 12

DRA

Back 12

Differential Reinforcement Alternate Behaviour: reinforcement delivered to alternate behaviour. Two behaviours can occur at same time, only one reinforced.

Front 13

DRI

Back 13

Differential Reinforcement Incompatible Behaviour: reinforcement delivered to incompatible behaviour. Two behaviours can't occur at same time.

Front 14

Noncontingent Reinforcement

Back 14

Provide reinforcers at preselected times. Disassociate behaviour with reinforcement

Front 15

Extinction

Back 15

Withholding reinforcement of previously reinforced behavioural decrease that behaviour

Front 16

Restitution

Back 16

Person makes things right

Front 17

Response Cost

Back 17

Pay penalty for what they do. Take away specific amounts of reinforcers when undesired behaviour occurs

Front 18

Overcorrection

Back 18

Reduce behaviour by teaching other behaviour with exaggerated experience

Front 19

Restitution Overcorrection

Back 19

Person must overcorrect environment disturbed by bad behaviour (spill milk / clean the whole kitchen)

Front 20

Positive Practice Overcorrection

Back 20

Person must engage in practice of appropriate behaviour a lot

Front 21

Negative Practice

Back 21

Repeating inappropriate behaviour

Front 22

Positive Practice

Back 22

Repeating positive behaviour to learn skill

Front 23

Differential Reinforcement

Back 23

Applying specifically identified schedule of reinforcement that is used to decrease or eliminate rate of behaviours

Front 24

Natural Consequence

Back 24

Events that occur as result of behaviour. Nothing has to be added, consequences happen naturally

behaviour. Nothing has to be added, consequences happen naturally

behaviour. Nothing has to be added, consequences happen naturally

Front 25

Logical Consequence

Back 25

Social rules. Events that occur as predetermined intervention to do with behaviour. (Miss bus, spend own money on taxi)

Front 26

Scatter Plot

Back 26

Baseline that measures occurences of behaviour with respect to time, setting, or task. Frequency of behaviour in intervals
