What is needed for Informed Consent?
|
1. Capacity to decide
2. Voluntary decision 3. Information (person must be given all relevant information about risks and benefits) |
|
|
What does it mean to protect a client or student's confidentiality?
|
Information regarding an individual receiving services cannot be disclosed to a third party without their consent.
|
|
|
What are the limits of confidentiality?
|
As a mandated reporter you are required to report:
* Suspicion of abuse/neglect *If there is a threat to the individual or others and sufficient protective measures are not in place *billing/collaboration |
|
|
Rationale for conducting descriptive assessment:
|
Can be used to identify events that have a high degree of correlation with the target behavior and may help suggest hypotheses about behavioral function
|
|
|
How would you conduct a descriptive assessment?
|
*Observe the target behavior without manipulating anything in the environment
*Take data: ABC, Scatterplot *Conduct Interviews *Checklists/Rating Scales: MAS/FAST *Form hypothesis |
|
|
Measurable dimensions of behavior
|
*Frequency/Rate
*Duration *IRT *Latency *Magnitude *Topography *Locus |
|
|
Why would you use a task analysis?
|
In order to break a complex tasks down in to small, teachable units. In a task analysis, the completion of one response in the chain becomes the SD for next response. The completion of each step becomes the reinforcement for each previous step and signals that you’re getting closer to end of chain and that reinforcement is going to occur.

|
|
Parsimony
|
The act of ruing out simpler logical explanation either conceptually or systematically before considering more complex or abstract ones.
|
|
|
7 dimensions of behavior analysis
|
Applied, behavioral, analytic, technological, conceptually systematic, effective, generality. Ask her to define what “conceptually systematic” means (procedures are described using terms related to basic principles). Ask her to define “generality” (behavior change lasts over time, occurs in more than one environment, or spreads to other behaviors)
|
|
|
Motivating Operation
|
A motivating operation is stimulus condition that alters (increases or decreases) the effectivenes of a reinforcer or punisher. It also alters (increase or decrease) any behavior that was reinforced or punished by these stimuli in the past.
|
|
|
What is an SD?
|
A discriminative stimulus is a stimulus that, when present, evokes behavior because the behavior has been reinforced in the presence of that stimulus in the past.
|
|
|
Lawfulness of behavior
|
The lawfulness of behavior is the assumption that the world is a lawful and orderly place in which events occurs in relation to each other and not in an accidental fashion.
|
|
|
EAB vs. ABA
|
EAB natural science approach, skinner’s study of operant beavhior. Used to examine realtions between environmental variables. ABA is a science in which taxcics derived from princples of behaiovr are applied to socially significant behaiors and experimentation s is used to determine what was responsible for the behavior change.
|
|
|
Stimulus and stimulus class
|
Stimulus is an energy change that affects an organism through receptor cells. Simtulsu class is a group of stimuli that share common elemetns along temporacl, nformal and functional dimsions
