This strategy is called________. A. Naturalistic or Incidental teaching B. DTT (Direct Trial Training) C. Response generalization D. Stimulus generalization 29) A BCBA wants to teach a child how to wash her hands. The BCBA has an RBT who works for the company demonstrate washing hands, and the BCBA meticulously takes notes as to each step of the hand-washing procedure. For example: 1) push up sleeves; 2) turn on both faucets; 3) adjust water temperature; 4) check water temperature; 5) readjust temperature if needed; etc. The BCBA is using a _________ procedure. A. total task chaining B. forward chaining C. backward chaining D. task analysis 30) Total task presentation uses prompting, as necessary, to complete all of the steps in a chain on every trial. This has the advantage, like backward chaining, of completing the chain. This is really a prompt-fading procedure. As you guide/prompt a client through all steps, you gradually fade these prompts to allow the client to demonstrate the skill without them. Once the client has completed all steps without prompting, the task has been mastered. A good skill to train using total task training would be_________. A. putting the final piece in a jigsaw puzzle to complete it B. washing one's hair C. crossing shoelaces before training shoe tying D. putting soap in the dishwasher and turning it on 31) Backward chaining actually follows the steps of a chain forward, but with the behavior analyst or parent completing all except the last step. This method allows the entire chain to be observed and reinforcement to be delivered upon completion of the last step. After a client has mastered the last step, the behavior analyst completes all but the final two steps, and so on. An appropriate task item with which to use backward training is__________. A. having the child pull the bow of their tied shoe laces to tighten the laces B. having a child wet their toothbrush to prepare for brushing C. having a child complete a six-piece jigsaw puzzle D. teaching a child to make toast 32) Forward chaining is beginning with successful completion of the first step in a chain (prompted or unprompted) to access reinforcement. After the first step is mastered, the next steps are introduced in successive order, always beginning with the first step; step 1, steps 1-2, steps 1-2-3, steps 1-2-3-4, etc. The reinforcement for completion of one step is the introduction of the next step, and reinforcement is also given at the completion of the last step. Forward chaining would be best utilized when the initial steps are easier to complete, but the entire task is unlikely to be mastered without some repetition. Forward chaining may not be appropriate for tasks that need to be completed in the moment (everyone is hungry and you want to teach your son to make dinner, e.g.), as this method takes some patience and time. A task that would be appropriate to begin with when using forward chaining is_________. A. cracking eggs to make cookies B. putting in the last piece of a jigsaw puzzle C. opening the dishwasher to begin unloading D. pushing down the lever on the toaster to toast bread 33) Which of the following is NOT a response prompt? A. Telling someone to cross the laces over one another. B. Modeling the action used to brush teeth. C. Placing an arrow pointing to the start button on a dishwasher. D. Using hand-over-hand guidance to help someone zip a zipper. 34) You are an RBT working with a client on a chaining procedure to load and run a dishwasher. Your client is successful with all of the steps except pushing the "start" button to start the dishwasher after putting the soap in it. The client tells you that there are too many buttons. You decided to place an arrow sticker on the dishwasher that points to the start button. After a week of successful starts you remove the arrow sticker, and place a little pink dot on the start button. After another successful week you remove the dot. You are using a ___________. A. response prompt B. stimulus fading procedure C. response prompt fading procedure D. backward chaining procedure 35) All of the following are acceptable prompt fading procedures, EXCEPT___________. A. most to least or least to most B. time delay C. graduated guidance D. stimulus fading 36) Stimulus fading could look like___________. A. a trainer initially putting the correct item in an array close to the client then moving it farther with each successive correct identification B. a trainer telling the client to "Now, push the start button." Then the next time saying, "Start button." Then just saying "Start." Finally, saying nothing at all. C. a trainer using less and less physical guidance when teaching a client to put on a coat and zip it. D. a trainer demonstrating the full shoe-tying procedure then successively demonstrating fewer and fewer steps. 37) Which is an example of stimulus generalization? A. Two-year-old Sam thinking all men with beards are scary since his uncle has a beard, and the uncle yelled at Sam. B. Shaley, a six-year-old, being able to tell the difference between chickens and ducks. C. Joel, a middle schooler, saying "Great!" when asked, "How are you?" and also when asked, "What's up?" D. Four-year-old Max being able to pick a wolf out of an array of pictures that includes a wolf, a dog, and a wolverine. 38) When Ellie, a preschooler, sees the BCBA she works with, she says “Hi, Miss Ronda.” Other times Ellie says, “Hi, Teacher,” or “Hi, Mrs.” This is an example of__________. A. stimulus generalization B. stimulus discrimination C. response generalization D. response discrimination 39) Hayden, a BCBA, has been working with a client for quite sometime on acquiring the skill of being able to order food at a fast food restaurant. The client can successfully order food in the training setting. To ensure generalization and maintenance, the BCBA should_________. A. make sure the client will receive reinforcement in the natural environment B. sign off on termination of the plan C. make sure stimuli in the training setting does not overlap with stimuli in the natural environment D. refrain from using probes post-intervention 40) When Sally used to tantrum in the grocery store, her mother would buy her a sweet treat to get Sally to stop tantrumming. Her parents decided this might not be the best course of action, so now when Sally starts throwing a tantrum in the grocery store, she is completely ignored no matter how big of a fit she throws or which parent is present. Her parents are using a(n) __________ procedure. A. differential reinforcement of alternative behaviors (DRA) B. differential reinforcement of other behaviors (DRO) C. punishment D. extinction 41) Important components of a behavior reduction plan include a functionally equivalent replacement behavior, goals, a system for measuring incidents of behavior, and strategies for__________. A. identification of the problem B. collecting ABC data C. indirect assessment D. generalization and maintenance of the behavior 42) Whenever Henry, a 10-year-old, receives an assignment in math class, he becomes very angry and starts throwing his personal belongings on the floor. The usual consequence is being escorted to the principal's office where he has to write an essay about his bad behavior rather than doing his math work. A likely function of his behavior might be_________. A. escape/ avoidance B. access to a tangible C. access to an activity D. sensory 43) An RBT is tracking nose-picking behavior of a preschool child in order to gather baseline data. In a 45-minute interval, the RBT uses event recording and records 108 instances of nose-picking according to the operational definition. The supervising BCBA asked the RBT to convert the frequency data to a rate per minute. What is the correct approximate calculation for rate? A. about 3 per minute B. about 2.5 per minute C. about 1.75 per minute D. about 4.2 per minute 44) Mrs. Simon, a 4th grade teacher, has a perfect class, except Natalie. Natalie is a lovely child, but is very talkative and often off task. She tends to blurt out instead of raising her hand. Mrs. Simon consults with the district school psychologist, and decides to start ignoring Natalie when she blurts without being called upon. The school psychologist expands on this plan by encouraging Mrs. Simon to shower Natalie with praise when she is on task, no matter what the activity, both in the classroom and out. The school psychologist is suggesting Mrs. Simon use_________. A. Differential reinforcement of incompatible behavior (DRI) B. extinction and positive reinforcement C. Non-contingent Reinforcement (NCR) D. generalization 45) A DRI (Differential Reinforcement of an Incompatible behavior) procedure might look like__________.
