1.

What is punishment?

a)

A procedure that involves removing reinforcers to reduce or eliminate behavior

b)

A stimulus that follows a behavior and that reduces the future occurrence of that behavior

c)

A technique that withholds reinforcement for a behavior that has been maintained through reinforcement

d)

A technique that produces decreases in target behaviors through less negative means than punishment

2.

Which behaviors might warrant a behavior reductive intervention?

4 lines
3.

What are the unique components of the 1997 discipline provisions in IDEA?

a)

Manifestation determination, 'stay put' provision, and positive behavioral supports

b)

Manifestation determination, 'stay put' provision, and functional behavior assessment

c)

Manifestation determination, 'stay put' provision, and placement in an interim alternative educational setting

d)

Manifestation determination, 'stay put' provision, and individualized education program

4.

What is the purpose of conducting a functional assessment prior to implementing behavior reductive procedures?

a)

To document the need for behavior reductive procedures

b)

To evaluate the effects of the intervention

c)

To determine the effectiveness of low-aversive techniques

d)

To identify the possible functions of the inappropriate behavior

5.

What is the recommended approach when choosing and implementing behavior reductive or punishment strategies?

a)

Choose the most aversive intervention to produce desired results

b)

Use behavior reductive techniques and punishment in isolation

c)

Base decisions on data and document effectiveness of low-aversive techniques

Implement behavior reductive procedures without a functional assessment

6.

What is the purpose of differential reinforcement of incompatible behavior (DRI)?

a)

To reinforce lower levels of the challenging behavior

b)

To reinforce zero instances of the challenging behavior

c)

To select a broader range of behaviors as alternatives to the challenging behavior

d)

To reinforce appropriate behaviors that are incompatible with the challenging behavior

7.

What is the criteria for selecting a replacement behavior in differential reinforcement of alternative behaviors (DRA)?

a)

b)

The replacement behavior should be more difficult to perform than the inappropriate behavior

c)

The replacement behavior should serve the same function as the inappropriate behavior

The replacement behavior should result in less frequent reinforcement than the inappropriate behavior

8.

What is the purpose of differential reinforcement of lower levels of behavior (DRL)?

a)

To reinforce behaviors that are acceptable at high levels

9.

What are the predictable properties of behaviors placed on extinction?

10.

What is response cost as a punishment procedure?

a)

Withholding reinforcement for a behavior that has been maintained through reinforcement

b)

Removing a certain amount of reinforcers contingent upon a particular behavior

c)

Placing the individual in total isolation as a timeout

d)

Denying access to reinforcers for a predetermined period of time

11.
