F.6 Design and evaluate functional analyses - Part 4 - Acquisition

Which function(s) do the data support?

attention

Which function(s) do the data support?

escape

In addition to a possible attention function, which functions do the data support?

escape and automatic reinforcement

Functional analysis data are normally analyzed by

visual inspection.

The relatively low rate in the demand condition supports an automatic reinforcement function. Why?

Behavior requested in the demand condition may compete with behavior maintained by automatic reinforcement.

Which function(s) do the data support?

attention and escape

Which function(s) do the data support?

(undeterminable)

Which function(s) do the data support?

automatic reinforcement

Which functions do the data support?

automatic reinforcement and attention

Which function(s) do the data support?

automatic reinforcement or undeterminable

On a graph displaying data from a functional analysis, the variable on the y-axis is the

number of occurrences of the target behavior.

On a graph displaying data from a functional analysis, the variable on the x-axis is the

session number

On a graph displaying data from a functional analysis, the separate data paths represent the

test condition included in the FA.
