- Front
- Back
Operant level
|
the frequency of responding before reinforcement
|
|
Terminal behavior
|
-behavior not in the repertoire or not occurring at the desired frequency
-the goal of the intervention (e.g. Andrew's clear, fluent speech) |
|
Initial behavior
|
behavior that resembles the terminal behavior along some meaningful dimension and occurs at least with a minimal frequency
(e.g. Andrew moves his lips) |
|
Intermediate behaviors
|
behavior that more closely approximates the terminal behavior
(e.g. Andrew makes a croaking sound) |
|
The Procedure of Shaping with Reinforcement
|
-The differential reinforcement of only that behavior which more and more closely resembles the terminal behavior
-Reinforcing successful approximations -Use shaping when you want to bring about NEW responses |
|
# of response classes in Differential reinforcement and shaping
|
DR: one
Shaping: a series |
|
Successive approximations to the terminal behavior (Diff reinforcement vs. shaping)
|
DR: No
Shaping: yes |
|
Some terminal behavior at the start (diff rein vs shaping)
|
DR: Yes
Shaping: no |
|
The Procedure of SHaping with Punishment
|
The differential punishment of all behavior except that which more and more closely resembles the terminal behavior
|
|
The Procedure of Variable-Outcome Shaping
|
-Shaping that involves
-an increase in the magnitude of a reinforcer or -a decrease in the magnitude of an -aversive outcome as performance more and more -closely resembles the terminal behavior |
|
The Procedure of Fixed-Outcome Shaping
|
-Shaping that involves
-the delivery of a fixed magnitude of reinforcer, -when performance meets the changing criterion, -or the delivery of a fixed magnitude of an aversive outcome, -when performance fails to meet the changing criterion |
|
Is working out to get in shape, shaping?
|
No.
|
|
Behavioral chains:
|
a sequence of responses linked together with connecting stimuli
-term you should use when working with a sequence of distinctly different procedures |
|
Shaping
|
Procedures where we use a series of differential reinforcement procedures for the same response class
-only deals with one response class -gradually changes criterion |
|
Several distinctly different responses (shaping vs. chaining)
|
Shaping: no
Chaining: yes |
|
Behavior changes along a single response dimension? (Shaping vs behavior chaining)
|
Shaping: Yes
Chaining: No |
