What two uses does Guided compliance involve and how?

-Involves Positive punishment to decrease the problem behavior because physical guidance is contingent on the problem behavior. -Involves negative reinforcement to increase compliance because removal of physical guidance is contingent on compliance.

How do you choose reinforcers?

1. Ask 2. Observe 3. Test

What are four cautions in the use of aversive activities?

1. Change agent must be physically capable of using the procedure. 2.Client may actively resist the procedure 3. Must be certain the physical contact involved in the procedure is not reinforcing the client 4. Must be certain the procedure can be carried out without harm

What three things should you do before using punishment?

1. Conduct a functional assessment 2. Identify the behavioral deficit as well as excess 3. First use functional/nonaversive treatments

What are the nine steps of response cost?

1. Conduct a functional assessment and first implement functional/nonaversive treatments 2.Reinforce desirable behaviors 3. Identify the reinforcer to be lost 4. Decide if the loss is permanent or temporary 5. Explain procedure before implementing 6. Contingent on the problem, implement response cost immediately if possible 7. Symbolize the reinforcer loss if it is not immediate 8.Consider ethical issues regarding the loss of some reinforcers 9. Response cost should be practical and acceptable.

What are four considerations of the use of DRA?

1. Consider manipulating establishing operations to make the reinforcer more potent. 2. Consider the use of rules or instructions 3. Fade artificial reinforcers to natural reinforcers to help maintain behavior 4. Consider using the premack principle.

What are 6 issues with positive punishment?

1. Currently the least used behavior modification procedure 2. Over used and sometimes misused or abused in the past 3. Gave the ABA and behavior modification a bad name 4. We're trying to escape the legacy of punishment 5. Functional approaches to assessment and intervention replaced the reliance on punishment 6. PBS emerged in response to problems with punishment in the past

What are the six steps for using DRA?

1. Define the target behavior to increase and the undesirable competing behaviors to decrease 2. Identify the reinforcer for the problem behavior. 3. Choose a reinforcer for a desirable behavior 4. Reinforce desirable behavior if necessary (prompt before undesirable behavior occurs, not after/ prompt when EO and SD are present) 5. Eliminate or minimize the reinforcer for the undesirable behaviors 6. Use intermittent reinforcement for maintenance.

What are four issues discussed when dealing with positive vs negative punishment?

Deliver the reinforcer for the absence of the problem behavior in each interval 6. The occurrence of the problem behavior resets the interval for delivery of the reinforcer 7. Gradually increase the DRO interval 8. Use instructions when applicable

What are the steps to implementing DRL?

1. Is DRL the appropriate procedure? (Do you want to decrease but not eliminate behavior?) 2.Determine the acceptable level of the behavior 3. Decide on full session DRL or spaced resonding DRL 4.Inform the client of the criterion for reinforcement 5.Use a procedure to give the client feedback on the number of responses or timing of responses 6.Use intermediate goals if necessary

DRA - Differential reinforcement of alternative behavior

10 steps to using time out

1. Start with a functional assessment and implement functional/nonaversive treatments first 2.Make sure the "time in" environment is reinforcing 3. Reinforce desirable behaviors 4. When the problem behavior occurs, take the child to the time out area immediately 5. Provide no attention when taking the child to time out. 6. Time out must be brief, practical and safe 7. Provide no attention or other reinforcers during time out 8. Prevent escape from time-out 9. Child must be calm before release from time out 10. Time out must be acceptable to parents or other change agents before using the procedure

Spaced Responding DRL

1. The is delivered for a response when it is separated from the previous response by a specified interval of time 2. If a response occurs before the end of the interval, the interval is reset 3.Individual responses are reinforced when the IRT is greater than X 4. The timing of the response is important
