Differential reinforcement

Procedures used to eliminate, reduce, and increase behaviors that involve providing reinforcement for one response class and withholding reinforcement for the occurrence of challenging behavior above or below a pre-determined… Read more

5th Edition Task List

G-14  Use reinforcement procedures to weaken behavior (e.g., DRA, FCT, DRO, DRL, NCR).

6th Edition TCO

G.2 Design and evaluate differential reinforcement (e.g., DRA, DRO, DRL, DRH) procedures with and without extinction.

Differential reinforcement of alternative behavior (DRA)

A differential reinforcement procedure used to eliminate challenging behaviors. It involves withholding reinforcement for the occurrence of the challenging behavior and providing reinforcement for a specific functionally equivalent alternative behavior.

G-14  Use reinforcement procedures to weaken behavior (e.g., DRA, FCT, DRO, DRL, NCR).

6th Edition TCO

G.2 Design and evaluate differential reinforcement (e.g., DRA, DRO, DRL, DRH) procedures with and without extinction.

Differential reinforcement of high rates of responding (DRH)

A differential reinforcement procedure that is a variation of basic intermittent schedules of reinforcement. Reinforcement is delivered when an individual engages in a behavior at/or above a pre-established rate during

5th Edition Task List

B-5  Define and provide examples of schedules of reinforcement.

6th Edition TCO

G.2 Design and evaluate differential reinforcement (e.g., DRA, DRO, DRL, DRH) procedures with and without extinction.

Differential reinforcement of incompatible behavior (DRI)

A variation of the differential reinforcement of alternative behavior procedures used to eliminate challenging behaviors. It involves withholding reinforcement for the occurrence of the challenging behavior and providing reinforcement for

Differential reinforcement of low rates of responding (DRL)

A differential reinforcement procedure that is a variation of basic intermittent schedules of reinforcement. Reinforcement is delivered when an individual engages in a behavior at/or below a pre-established rate during

G.2 Design and evaluate differential reinforcement (e.g., DRA, DRO, DRL, DRH) procedures with and without extinction.

Differential reinforcement of other behavior (DRO)

A differential reinforcement procedure in which reinforcement is delivered contingent on the absence/omission of the challenging behavior during a specific time period or moment in time.
