Which of the following steps might be included in a more formalized single stimulus preference assessment? (Select all that apply) repeating presentation of items for a series of times allowing exposure to items a measurement of approach or reach for items place individual items in front of the child one at a time establishing a collection of possible reinforcers

All of the above

Which of the following words of caution does De Leon give regarding the single stimulus preference assessment? (Select all that apply) This is the easiest preference assessment to administer, so it becomes habitual for practitioners. Anything might be better than nothing, but that doesn't make everything a reinforcer. Some learner only get items when someone is giving them to them. Some learners may take anything that is handed to them even if it isn't valuable. A child might reach for anything even if he doesn't want it.

Which of the following statements is true about individual preferences? (Select all that apply) Changes in preferences are dynamic. Preferences are stable. Changes in preferences are avoidable. Preferences never change. Preferences change because of reinforcer efficacy.

Changes in preferences are dynamic. Preferences change because of reinforcer efficacy.

Which of the following variables is true during a choice-based preference assessment? (Select all that apply) Items should be placed directly in front of the learner. Make it so the child has to travel to retrieve an item. Do not make the child travel to retrieve an item. Do not present items directly in front of the learner. Require some kind of response effort for the learner.

Do not present items directly in front of the learner. Require some kind of response effort for the learner. Make it so the child has to travel to retrieve an item.

Which of the following reasons does DeLeon provide when cautioning against use of food as reinforcers? (Select all that apply) Food can quickly lead to satiation. Using food is safe and effective. Using food can disrupt the rate of responding when mixed into an array of leisure items. Food can be costly to replenish. Using food can lead to future dental and health concerns.

Which of the following are common characteristics of a response restriction assessment? (Select all that apply) It produces a more sensitive hierarchy of preferences. Outcomes are often static across multiple professionals. It yields true stimulus control. It is a very lengthy assessment. It overcomes the problem of frequent removal of items that other assessments encounter.

It is a very lengthy assessment. It produces a more sensitive hierarchy of preferences. It overcomes the problem of frequent removal of items that other assessments encounter.

Which of the following procedures can help when free operant assessments only yield 1 highly preferred reinforcer? equivalence testing behavioral momentum functional analysis positive reinforcement response restriction

response restriction

Which of the following elements might a preference show sensitivity to? (Select all that apply) conductivity sufficient access to the item continuity time allowed with the time level of engagement with the item

sufficient access to the item continuity time allowed with the time level of engagement with the item

According to De Leon, what are some of the reasons people are interested in preference assessments? (Select all that apply) Strong programming depends on identifying reinforcers. We can justify ineffective reinforcers if programming is stable. We can have better progress if we identify reinforcers. Strong programming is possible even when no strong reinforcers are available. We can increase appropriate behaviors if we identify preferences.

Which of the following statements are disadvantages of a free operant preference assessment? (Select all that apply) The hierarchy of reinforcers is established too quickly. The assessment may not result in a good hierarchy of reinforcers. The hierarchy of reinforcers must be tested multiple times. The child may only play with 1 item the entire time. The assessment may not yield relative value of other reinforcers.

The assessment may not result in a good hierarchy of reinforcers. The child may only play with 1 item the entire time. The assessment may not yield relative value of other reinforcers.

Which of the following variables describe a concurrent operant reinforcer assessment? (Select all that apply) Arrange for reinforcer to be available at all times. The learner has the option to complete 2 versions of the same task. Arrange for 2 reinforcers to be available concurrently. Each available reinforcer is associated with a different response. Run a typical baseline condition.

Which of the following steps might be included in a paired choice assessment? (Select all that apply) Present each possible paired choice between all available items. Remove each item once it has been chosen. Only present 1 item at a time, for a limited amount of time. The learner has to make a choice between 2 items. Instead of presenting 1 item at a time, present a choice.

The learner has to make a choice between 2 items. Instead of presenting 1 item at a time, present a choice. Present each possible paired choice between all available items.

Which of the following variables describe a single operant reinforcer assessment? (Select all that apply) This assessment is usually on a fixed ratio schedule of reinforcement. There is a single stimulus available at any given time for a single response. The dependent variable is usually equal to the response rate or frequency. This assessment is usually on a variable ratio schedule of reinforcement. Responding when reinforcer is delivered is compared to baseline rates.

Which of the following variables are drawbacks to running a multiple stimulus without replacement preference assessment? (Select all that apply) There might be a positional bias due to the dominant hand. There might not be any reinforcing items presented to the child. The child must have the ability to scan an array of items. Some learners become prompt dependent to make choices. Some children display the "saving the best for last" phenomenon.

During a single stimulus preference assessment, what might flat distribution tell us? (Select all that apply) a child does not like the items being offered a child is selecting systematically a child is attending to all items equally a child is selecting items randomly a child is not attending to items

a child is not attending to items a child is selecting items randomly

Which of the following alternatives get around some of the limitations of a single stimulus preference assessment? (Select all that apply) forced choice assessment free operant assessment shortened or abbreviated assessments multiple stimulus without replacement assessment paired choice assessment

all of the above

Which of the following variables are part of a fee operant preference assessment? (Select all that apply) allow access to all stimuli measure allocated time with each item never take stimuli away greatest duration of time with a single item is usually indicative of preference present an array of stimuli

at which point a child will stop working to earn a reinforcer how much work a learner is willing to do in order to earn a reinforcer how much work is too much work for the learner
