Reinforcer Preference Assessment

includes presenting several items or activities to a client at one time and observing/ recording the choice that a client makes

Applied

This dimension asks whether the interventions has social validity or social significance

Analytic

A function relationship is/ can be demonstrated (There is experimental or environmental control over a behavior)



Behaviral

ability to measure the target behavior and it needs to be a behavior of concern



Effective

Improve the behavior to a significant degree, the change must be relevant

Technological

All procedures are identified in sufficient detail so that someone else could replicate the intervention(s).

Generality

The behavior change is seen in other settings within other settings, with other people, possibly affects other behaviors and last over time.

GET A CAB

G - Generality lasting


E - Effective Change is of practical magnitude


T - Technological Described well enough to be replicated


A -Applied Socially valid


C - Conceptually Systematic using ABA terms


A - Analytic Showing stimulus control


B - Behaviorally measurable

Fundamental rule of experimental design

Change only one variable at a time

Withdrawal Designs

There is a Baseline phase (A) Intervention phase (B) and then another Baseline phase (A)


ABA

B-A-B withdraw design

used to implement a treatment first , usually with self injurious behaviors or target behaviors that result in physical harm or danger

Multiple Treatment Withdrawal designs

Used to compare the effects of tow or more treatment conditions


Possible design A-B-A-B-C-B-C

Alternating Treatments

Comparing tow or more treatments by alternating / switching between treatement conditions.

Experimental Control

demonstrated when data paths of two different treatments show little or no overlap.

Changing Criterion Design

Criterion is set for behavioral rate. When rate is reached, the criterion is changed by a predetermined amount. Using multiple criteria, each criterion level becomes the baseline for the next criterion level.


* advantages does not require withdraw

Multiple Baseline design

Compares behavior to other behavior or the same behavior either in different conditions or subjects.

Multiple Probe Design

used to analyze the relationship between the IV and the acquisition of a successive approximation or task sequence


* Initial probe taken


* Baseline measures taken for each step


* After criterion is reached the first condition or sequence step then a probe is done to assess the level of behavior change

Component Analysis

Refers to the investigation into the effectiveness of each component of a treatment plan

Parametric Analysis

How much of an intervention is needed (dosing) analysis of the effects of different values of IV. How much of the independent variable is necessary (Minimum needed)

Unwanted Effects of reinforcement

* May encourage only extrinsically


(improperly applied)


* Encourage unwanted behaviors


* Reinforcer becomes the focus


* Other desirable behaviors may decrease


* May not produce immediate effect


(Compared to punishment)

Unwanted Effects of Punishment

* Behavioral Contrast (increases in unpunished situations or settings)


* Modeling of undesirable behavior


* Escape/ avoidance beheavors


* Emotional and aggressive reactions


* Overuse of punishment


* No establishment of alternative procedures


* Withdrawal


* Individual may become a conditioned


punisher

Unwanted Effects of Extinction

aggression or emotional response to lack of reinforcement

Extinction Burst

Increase in behavior on extinction

Resistance to Extinction

continued rate of target behavior occurrence despite receiving no reinforcement

Spontaneous Recovery

Behavior recurs even after extinction has been in place for some time

Reinforcement

A consequence that increases the future probability of a behavior occuring

Postive

Something is added



Negative

Something is taken away
