Term
| Differential Reinforcement |
|
Definition
| Reinforcing one response or response class and withholding reinforcement for another response or response class. |
|
|
Term
| 4 variations of differential reinforcement |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| Effects of DRI and DRA procedures |
|
Definition
| Weakens the problem behavior and strengthens acceptable or replacement behavior |
|
|
Term
| Differential reinforcement of incompatible behavior (DRI) |
|
Definition
| Provides reinforcement for a behavior that cannot occur at the same time as the problem behavior. |
|
|
Term
| Differential reinforcement of alternative behavior (DRA) |
|
Definition
| Provides reinforcement for an acceptable alternative to the target /problem behavior |
|
|
Term
| Differential negative reinforcement for alternative behavior (DNRA) |
|
Definition
| Escape/avoidance is used as reinforcement for an alternative behavior |
|
|
Term
| Incompatible or alternative behavior should be: |
|
Definition
| In the learners repertoire, less effortful that problem behavior, emitted at a rate that enough opportunities for reinforcement, and will be reinforced in the natural environment |
|
|
Term
| Preference assessments and functional assessments will |
|
Definition
| increase the effectiveness of DRI/DRA procedures |
|
|
Term
| The stimulus changes (reinforcement) in DRI/DRA procedures should be |
|
Definition
| ones that can be delivered immediately |
|
|
Term
| The magnitude of the reinforcer is less important than |
|
Definition
| consistent provision and control |
|
|
Term
| The incompatible or alternative behavior should |
|
Definition
| produce higher rates of reinforcement than the problem behavior |
|
|
Term
| Problem behavior in DRI/DRA procedure should be placed on what schedule? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| DRI/DRA procedures can be combined with what other procedures? |
|
Definition
| Response blocking, time out, stimulus fading |
|
|
Term
| Differential reinforcement of other behavior (DRO) provides a reinforcer whenever |
|
Definition
| The problem behavior has not occurred for a specified amount of time |
|
|
Term
| Two types of DRO procedures |
|
Definition
| Interval DRO and momentary DRO |
|
|
Term
| In a DRO procedure, any instance of the problem behavior will |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| The 4 basic DRO schedules are |
|
Definition
| Fixed interval, Fixed momentary, variable interval, variable momentary |
|
|
Term
| Which DRO procedure is used more widely? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| One limitation of DRO procedures |
|
Definition
| other problem behaviors may be inadvertently reinforced |
|
|
Term
| Interval DRO procedures should begin with a time interval that |
|
Definition
| is equal to or slightly less than the current rate of the behavior |
|
|
Term
| During DRO procedures, practitioners should not deliver reinforcement at the scheduled interval or moment if |
|
Definition
| the target behavior or other unacceptable behavior is occurring |
|
|
Term
| 3 procedures for increasing the DRO interval |
|
Definition
| Increase by a constant duration, increase the intervals proportionately, change the interval according to the student's performance in the preceding session |
|
|
Term
| 3 types of differential reinforcement of low rates of responding (DRL) procedures |
|
Definition
| Full session DRL, Interval DRL, Spaced responding DRL |
|
|
Term
| In Full session DRL procedures, reinforcement is provided if |
|
Definition
| during the entire session the problem behavior did not occur above the set criterion |
|
|
Term
| During interval DRL procedures the session is divided into |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| In space responding DRL procedures, reinforcement is provided if |
|
Definition
| if the response is separated from the previous response by a specific time |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| the duration of time between responses |
|
|
Term
| Spaced responding DRL procedures are unlikely to |
|
Definition
| reduce the problem behavior to zero occurrences |
|
|
Term
| DRL procedures should be implemented when |
|
Definition
| the target behavior is acceptable but needs to occur less frequently |
|
|
Term
| This should be used to identify the initial IRT or inter response time |
