EDF 6221 Test 2 Updated Version 2023 Questions and Correct Correct Answerwers Guaranteed A+ At First Attempt
- parts of a discrete trial - Correct Answer 1. The instruction delivered by the tech
- The learner's response
- The consequence delivered by the technician
Backward chaining - Correct Answer The terminal response (target response) in the chain is taught first. The response that preceded it is reinforced next until the initial response in the chain is taught. Helps make efficient use of positive reinforcement to establish a strong chain
Basic schedule types - Correct Answer Fixed ratio/interval and variable ratio/interval
Behavior principle - Correct Answer Behaviors are linked together in sequences where one behavior produces a reinforcer for a preceding behavior and a cue (SD) for a subsequent behavior
Behavioral chain - Correct Answer A sequence of stimuli and responses. Each response produces a change in the environment that acts as a discriminative stimulus for the next response
Behavioral chaining - Correct Answer Reinforcing responses when they occur in a sequence so that they form a complex behavior. Help strengthen new behaviors and weaken maladaptive ones.
Benefits of DTT - Correct Answer Was developed to ensure the highest number of learning opportunities possible. Rapid learning. Many learning opportunities can be presented quickly because learning is teacher directed. Helps individuals with ASD to learn structured work expectations, and is straightforward to train staff to implement
Conducting a task analysis - Correct Answer 1. Determine terminal objective: what skills or behaviors will be taught? What's the end behavior?
2. Set criterion for mastery: what is the behavior, condition, and criterion?
3. Specify any prerequisite skills: where is the learner now?
4. Take into account dimension concerns: how are we measuring success?
- List all steps: what are the necessary steps? Are these universal? Is the sequence
- Include needed props/materials
correct?
Drawbacks of DTT - Correct Answer Can teach rote responding if done poorly. Learned skills may not generalize to the less-structured natural environment. Doesn't build in reinforcement for learner spontaneity
