Typical extinction procedures include ignoring the behavior, removing reinforcing items or activities, and what? removing the learner from the environment
What is the first step for implementing an extinction procedure? identifying the interfering behavior
What is the second step for implementing an extinction procedure? identifying data collection measures and collecting baseline data
What is the third step for implementing an extinction procedure? determining the function of behavior
What is the fourth step for implementing an extinction procedure? creating an intervention plan
What is the fifth step for implementing an extinction procedure? implementing the intervention
What is the sixth step for implementing an extinction procedure? collecting outcome data
What is the seventh step for implementing an extinction procedure? reviewing the intervention plan
Interfering behaviors are defined by focusing on topography, frequency, intensity, location, and what? duration
Why is it important to collect baseline data for a long period of time? to determine if patterns exist
Securing attention, accessing tangible items, escaping or avoiding a task, and what are functions of the behavior? sensory reinforcement
What is the first phase of step 4? to clearly write out the intervention procedures
What is one way that teachers respond to the behavior when the intervention is implemented? planned ignoring, denied access, escape extinction sensory extinction
Where do teachers collect data? in the setting where the behavior occurs
What is one way that teachers can modify an intervention plan if the target behaviors continue after the extinction procedure? changing the way they response to the behavior, changing the length of time they ignore or respond to the behavior, expanding the plan to other settings, having other team members implement the intervention plan, adapting the plan to target new behaviors
When extinction is used on a target behavior, initially the behavior is likely to what? increase in frequency and intensity
Extinction is often used with what other behavioral procedure to increase appropriate behavior? differential reinforcement
When might one want to use extinction procedure? only after other reinforcement-based interventions have been tried and failed
