Correct responding that requires discriminating one antecedent stimulus condition (SD) in which the response will produce reinforcement.

G-10 Teach simple and conditional discriminations.
G.6 Design and evaluate procedures to produce simple and conditional discriminations.
Defined as the untrained acquisition of a reflexive, symmetric, and transitive relation between stimuli that are in some way related.
Stimulus equivalence Read More
G-12 Use equivalence-based instruction.
G.19 Design and evaluate procedures to promote emergent relations and generative performance.
A method of fading stimulus prompts by systematically and gradually lessening or removing them until control of an individual’s behavior transfers to the SD.
A type of prompt that increases the salience of the SD and calls an individual’s attention to the stimulus that directs behavior, which is gradually faded out until the correct
A method of fading stimulus prompts by starting with a stimulus that controls the desired response and systematically and gradually changing the shape of that stimulus into the SD that
The gradual and progressive changes in criteria during a shaping procedure, with each change being closer in form to the desired terminal response.
Successive approximations Read More
A matching-to-sample procedure where clients are taught to match sample and comparison stimuli that are symbolically related, and not physically identical.
Defined as the trained relation of symbolically similar items and the demonstration of the relation in reverse without additional direct training. (i.e., If A=B, then B=A)
G-12 Use equivalence-based instruction.
G.19 Design and evaluate procedures to promote emergent relations and generative performance.
A breakdown of a complex behavior into small, teachable units that establish a behavior chain (series of steps and tasks presented in a specific order) that must occur in a
A prompting procedure in which the transfer of stimulus control from the prompt to the SD is implemented by delaying the presentation of the prompt following the presentation of the
A non-exclusionary time-out procedure in which reinforcement is paired with a ribbon on a child’s wrist to signal the availability of reinforcement. The removal of the ribbon, contingent on challenging
A punishment procedure where access to specific reinforcers is prohibited for a period of time following an occurrence of challenging behavior.
