What is a contrived contingency - ANS ✓some form of punishment/reinforcement implemented by the teacher for behavior change that is not natural (giving an M&M for raising hand) What is a natural contingency? - ANS ✓a naturally occurring punishment/reinforcement (ex. You put your shoes so now you can go play outside) Are the PFA and IISCA the same thing? - ANS ✓no. PFA and FBA are synonymous. IISCA and FA are synonymous The PFA includes ____ and ____ - ANS ✓open ended interview and IISCA The FBA includes ___, ___ and ____ - ANS ✓indirect, descriptive and FA Per Dr Hanley, _____ behavior often derive from _____ conditions - ANS ✓extraordinary, ordinary When is an analysis complete? - ANS ✓when all variability has been accounted for If an FA yields undifferentiated results, what does that mean - ANS ✓results are inconclusive so you need to repeat FA or the function is automatic reinforcement

EDF

If there is overlap in data paths it means ... - ANS ✓- inconclusive/undifferentiated results

  • or if high in all areas, automatic positive reinforcement One problem with indirect assessment is that the analyst almost never ____ the behavior - ANS ✓observes Hanley suggests the first step to a functional analysis is to _____ the stakeholders - ANS ✓interview Hanley states the biggest problem with descriptive assessment is that .... - ANS ✓the practitioner must wait around for the problem behavior to occur The _____ of behavior often reveals very little info about the conditions that account for it - ANS ✓topography In an FA, if the condition is contingent attention, the consequence delivered should be _____ - ANS ✓attention In an FA, if the condition is contingent ______, the consequence should be a break from task - ANS ✓escape Interventions should be _______ _____ to the problem behavior - ANS ✓functionally equivalent ____ assessments often yield corollary results- meaning no control between controlling variables - ANS ✓descriptive Functions based on ____ reinforcement include social attention, tangible and automatic - ANS ✓positive

EDF

Prediction (baseline logic) - ANS ✓if we did not intervene, this behavior would continue Verification (baseline logic) - ANS ✓when we intervene the data path will change Replication (baseline logic) - ANS ✓if we intervene again, the same result will happen T/F the indirect FBA hypothesizes the function of behavior - ANS ✓true Descpritive FBA confirms the function of behavior - ANS ✓false. Only functional analysis can do that ABC continuous vc ABC narrative - ANS ✓continuous is continuous recording and narrative is only when the behavior occurs What might cause function of behavior to be unclear - ANS ✓medical issues, inconsistent responding, mixed results from ABC data, inconclusive results T/F: functional analysis (FA) confirms the function of behavior - ANS ✓true T/F: FA and FBA are the same thing - ANS ✓false Why conduct an FBA? - ANS ✓to confirm the hypothesis about the function of behavior T/F: during descriptive assessment you manipulate the environment - ANS ✓false- just observing naturally occuring conditions

EDF

Limitations of descriptive assessments - ANS ✓waiting to see behavior, timely, reactivity, can be mislead bc correlated vs causal Analog conditions occur in .... - ANS ✓functional analysis Analog conditions means... - ANS ✓arraning variables that may effect behavior systematically (manipulating variables- only done in FA) Examples of social positive reinforcement - ANS ✓saying good job, giving praise, any attention Examples of social negative reinforceement - ANS ✓giving them a break, allowing them to leave the room for a bit Examples of automatic positive reinforcement - ANS ✓stimming self hitting When results of asessments do not provide answers (AKA undifferentiated results) what should you do? - ANS ✓consider medical issues, consider automatic positive reinforement, test again in different other environments When alone shows behavior, function is always ____ - ANS ✓automatic reinforcement ____ condition is thought to maintain behavior - ANS ✓test _____ condition is thought NOT to maintain behavior (low instances) - ANS ✓control IISCA - ANS ✓interveiw informed synthesized contingency analysis
