Behavioral Learning Quiz

What is the purpose of a Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP)?

• To provide reinforcement for a predetermined alternative behavior

• To use observations from a functional assessment to focus on positive replacement behaviors

• To provide reinforcement dependent on the number of responses meeting or being below a predetermined limit

• To describe the ability to learn a skill in one situation and apply it flexibly to other similar but different situations

What does Behavioral Momentum refer to?

• The removal of something that acts to decrease the likelihood of a behavior happening in the future

• The addition of something that acts to increase the likelihood of a behavior happening in the future

• One effect of the high-probability request sequence where client responding is repeated at a quick and consistent rate

• A verbal operant; requesting

What is Differential Reinforcement of Alternative Behavior (DRA)?

• Providing reinforcement for a predetermined alternative behavior while withholding reinforcement for the unwanted response

• Providing reinforcement dependent on the responses meeting or being above a predetermined limit during a specified time frame

• Providing reinforcement dependent on the response occurring after a specified time frame with no occurrences

• The addition of something that acts to decrease the likelihood of a behavior happening in the future

What is Generalization in the context of behavioral learning?

• A sample of the defined behavior in the exact instant you are taking data

• The ability to learn a skill in one situation and apply it flexibly to other similar but different situations

• The addition of something that acts to decrease the likelihood of a behavior happening in the future

• A training package model that includes instruction, modeling, rehearsal, and feedback

What is a Mand in behavioral terms?

• A sample of the defined behavior in the exact instant you are taking data

• The addition of something that acts to decrease the likelihood of a behavior happening in the future

• A verbal operant; requesting

• The ability to learn a skill in one situation and apply it flexibly to other similar but different situations

What does MTS (Momentary Time Sampling) involve?

• Defining the interval of time, and looking up at the end of the interval to record whether the target behavior was occurring or not

• Providing reinforcement for a predetermined alternative behavior while withholding reinforcement for the unwanted response

• Providing reinforcement dependent on the response occurring after a specified time frame with no occurrences

• The ability to learn a skill in one situation and apply it flexibly to other similar but different situations

What is Positive Punishment?

• The removal of something that acts to decrease the likelihood of a behavior happening in the future

• The addition of something that acts to decrease the likelihood of a behavior happening in the future

• The addition of something that acts to increase the likelihood of a behavior happening in the future

• The removal of something that acts to increase the likelihood of a behavior happening in the future

What is Negative Punishment?

• The removal of something that acts to decrease the likelihood of a behavior happening in the future

• The addition of something that acts to decrease the likelihood of a behavior happening in the future

• The addition of something that acts to increase the likelihood of a behavior happening in the future

• The removal of something that acts to increase the likelihood of a behavior happening in the future

What is Positive Reinforcement?

• The removal of something that acts to decrease the likelihood of a behavior happening in the future

• The addition of something that acts to decrease the likelihood of a behavior happening in the future

• The addition of something that acts to increase the likelihood of a behavior happening in the future

• The removal of something that acts to increase the likelihood of a behavior happening in the future

What is the definition of Negative Reinforcement?

• The addition of something that decreases the likelihood of a behavior happening in the future

• The removal of something that acts to increase the likelihood of a behavior happening in the future

• The removal of something that decreases the likelihood of a behavior happening in the future

• The addition of something that acts to increase the likelihood of a behavior happening in the future
