all of the above) Incorrect Option(s) -multiple exemplars -general case analysis -train loosely

You need to teach a child that an "A" in different fonts is still an "A". Of the following, which approach is best suited for achieving this?

general case analysis

Training loosely and general case analysis differ in that

general case analysis requires an analysis of critical stimuli and training loosely is an unsystematic varying of non-critical stimulus properties.

Achieving generalization by conducting an examination of the range of stimuli to be learned and teaching to those stimulus variations is

general case analysis.

Overgeneralization occurs when a target behavior comes under the control of

inappropriate stimuli that share some of the properties of the stimuli used in training.

The "train and hope" method of promoting generalization

means that no efforts are made to program for generalization.

A child is having difficulty discriminating cars from trucks. Which approach is best suited for teaching that discrimination?

multiple exemplars

Achieving generalization by teaching to different stimulus conditions, probing to see if generalization has occurred to novel conditions, and repeating this process until generalization is demonstrated is

multiple exemplars.

Faulty stimulus control in which responding comes under the control of an irrelevant antecedent stimulus is called

overgeneralization.

A student has learned to read in their special education class. However, the student has difficulty reading in their regular education class. Which approach is best suited for extending generalization to other settings?

program common stimuli

Achieving generalization by bringing stimuli from the natural setting into the training setting is

programming common stimuli.

You have successfully taught a child to request the bathroom when in the classroom, but the child doesn't make that request anywhere else. Which approach is best suited for extending generalization to other settings?

sequential modification

Achieving generalization by implementing first in one setting and then additional settings one at a time is

sequential modification.

Achieving generalization by selecting target behaviors that get reinforced without programming promotes generalization

through natural contingencies of reinforcement

You need to teach a child that an "A" in different fonts is still an "A". Of the following, which approach is best suited for achieving this?

train loosely

Achieving generalization by unsystematically varying non- critical properties of the antecedent stimuli is

training loosely.

Achieving generalization by varying schedules and immediacy of reinforcement is

using indiscriminable contingences.
