awareness training |
a component of the habit reversal procedure in which the person is taught to identify each instance of a particular habit behavior as it occurs |
|
competing response |
an alternative behavior that occurs in place of another target behavior; typically it is physically incompatible with the target behavior
|
|
competing response training |
a component of the habit reversal procedure in which the client is taught to engage in a competing response contingent on the occurrence of the habit behavior or the urge to engage in the habit behavior
|
|
diaphragmatic breathing |
a type of relaxation training exercise in which one engages in slow, rhythmic breathing, using the diaphragm muscle to pull air deep into the lungs
|
|
habit behavior |
a repetitive behavior in one of three categories: nervous habits, tics, and stuttering
|
|
habit disorder |
a repetitive behavior that is distressing to the person
|
|
habit reversal |
a procedure for treating habit disorders; it component procedures include awareness training, competing response training, social support, generalization training, and motivational strategies
|
|
motivation strategy |
part of the habit reversal procedure used to increase the likelihood that the client will use the competing response outside the treatment sessions to control the habit
|
|
motor tics |
repetitive, jerking movements of a particular muscle group in the body
|
|
nervous habit |
repetitive, manipulative behaviors that are most likely to occur when a person experiences heightened tension; do not typically serve any social function for the individual
|
|
regulated breathing |
the competing response that is used in the habit reversal treatment for stuttering
|
|
social support |
a component of the habit reversal procedure in which a significant other praises the correct use of the competing response and prompts the client to use the competing response when the habit behavior occurs
|
|
stuttering |
a speech disfluency in which the individual repeats words or syllables, prolongs a word sound, and/or blocks on a work (makes no sound for a period of time when truing to say a word)
|

Tourette's disorder |
a tic disorder involving multiple motor and vocal tics that have occurred for at least 1 year |
|
vocal tic |
a repetitive vocal sound or word uttered by an individual that doesn't serve any communicative function |
|
backup reinforcer |
reinforcers used in a token economy; a client receives tokens for desirable behaviors and exchanges a specified number of tokens for any of a variety of these |
|
token |
a conditioned reinforcer used in a token economy; something that can be given to another person and accumulated by that person
|
|
token economy |
a reinforcement system in which conditioned reinforcers called tokens are delivered to people for desirable behaviors; the tokens are later exchanged for backup reinforcers |
|
behavioral contract |
a written document that specifies a particular target behavior for a client and the consequences that will be contingent on the occurrence or nonoccurrence of the behavior in a stated period of time |
|
one-party contract |
a behavioral contract in which one person seeks to change a target behavior; the person arranges the contract with a contract manager who implements the contingency
|
|
parallel contract |
a two-part contract in which two people each seek behavior change; both people specify their behavior to be changed and the consequence for their behavior, however the contract behaviors and consequences for each party are independent of each other
|
|
quid pro quo contract |
a two-party contract in which two people each specify a behavior that they will change in return for the behavior change of the other person
|
|
rule-governed behavior |
behavior that is controlled by a verbal statement about a contingency between the behavior and a consequence
|
|
two-party contract |
a type of behavioral contract in which two people both identify behaviors to change and the consequence for the behavior change |
|
anxiety |
a term used to describe respondent behavior involving the activation of the autonomic nervous system |
|
attention-focusing exercises |
a type of anxiety-reduction strategy in which one focuses attention on a pleasant or neutral stimulus to remove attention from the anxiety-producing stimulus
|
|
behavioral relaxation training |
a type of relaxation training in which one assumes a relaxed posture in all of the major muscle groups of the body to achieve relaxation |
|
contact desensitization |
a form of in vivo desensitization in which the therapist provides reassuring physical contact as the client progresses through the hierarchy
|
|
fear |
occurs when a stimulus situation elicits autonomic nervous system arousal and the individual engages in behavior to avoid or escape from the stimulus situation
|
|
flooding |
a procedure in which the person is exposed to the feared stimulus at full intensity for a prolonged period until his/her anxiety subsides in the presence of the feared stimulus
|
|
hierarchy |
used in systematic desensitization or in vivo desensitization procedures; various fearful situations are listed in order from least to most fear-provoking
|
|
in vivo desensitization |
a procedure for treating a fear or phobia; 1. learning relaxation, 2. developing a fear hierarchy, 3. client makes actual contact with the fear-producing situation at each step in the hierarchy
|
|
phobia |
a fear in which the level anxiety or escape and avoidance behavior is severe enough to disrupt the person's life
|
|
progressive muscle relaxation |
a relaxation procedure in which the client learns to tense and relax each of the major muscle groups of the body
|
|
relaxation training |
a procedure for teaching a person the skills needed to decrease autonomic arousal (anxiety) by producing an incompatible state of relaxation
|
|
systematic desensitization |
a procedure used to treat a fear or phobia; 1. learns relaxation, 2. develops a hierarchy of fear-producing situations, 3. the person uses the relaxation procedure as he/she imagines each situation in the hierarchy |
