The starting behavior in a shaping program
(all of the above) Incorrect Option(s) -could be any behavior occurring at a relatively high frequency. -has some relevance to the target behavior, but may not be similar. -is the first topography you will reinforce.
Clicker training
(all of the above) Incorrect Option(s) -is a shaping procedure used to establish complex performances in animals errorlessly and without verbal commands. -uses a distinct clicker sound as the reinforcer for shaping. -pairs the clicker sound with an existing reinforcer so the clicker sound becomes a conditioned reinforcer.
A student has a baseline average of completing 50 math problems correctly in 10 minutes, with a high score of 60. Which would be an appropriate shaping criterion if the target performance is 75 problems correct?
Begin reinforcing only 52 or greater problems completed correctly; advance to the average correct plus 2 when the criterion is reached twice.
With shaping, the optimal schedule of reinforcement is
FR 1.
Shaping may be an appropriate intervention to
all of the above) Incorrect Option(s) -increase the frequency of a difficult task. -change a dimension of a current behavior. -teach a new behavior.
When shaping, move to the next successive approximation when the behavior is established at the current step,
but before it is so strong that advancing to the next topography is hindered.
Shaping may be an appropriate intervention to
change a dimension of a current behavior.
The starting behavior in a shaping program
could be any behavior occurring at a relatively high frequency.
Your daughter wants to use shaping to improve her dancing. The first step is to
define her performance goal.
The starting behavior in a shaping program
has some relevance to the target behavior, but may not be similar to it.
Shaping may be an appropriate intervention to
increase the frequency of a difficult task
Which is likely to quickly and effectively teach how to swing a bat?
instructions plus reinforcement of closer and closer approximations to holding and swinging a bat
Clicker training
is a shaping procedure used to establish complex performances in animals errorlessly and without verbal commands.
The starting behavior in a shaping program
is the first topography you will reinforce.
Clicker training
pairs the clicker sound with an existing reinforcer so the clicker sound becomes a conditioned reinforcer.
Shaping may be an appropriate intervention to
teach a new behavior.
One of the most important reasons that clicker training is effective in shaping behavior is
the immediacy of reinforcement.
If the terminal behavior is a motor movement, but there is no acceptable starting behavior,
the starting behavior may be prompted using physical guidance.
Generally, shaping is used ONLY when
there is an existing behavior that can be shaped into the terminal behavior.
Clicker training
uses a distinct clicker sound as the reinforcer for shaping.
