RBT Compentency Assessement

Cotinuous Measurement

frequency (how man times a behavior occurs), duration (how long a child stays seated in class, latency (time between stimulus and repsonse) IRT (response time between two responses)

Discontinuous Measurement

partial (behaviors that occur partically/ not the whole time) and whole interval (behavior present the entire time), momentary time sampling (when the behavior occurs at the end of the interval

ABC Data

collect Antecedent (before behavior), Behavior (during behavior), and Consequence (after behavior)

Discrete-Trial Training

structured teaching skills to individual by breaking them into small managable parts

Naturalistic teaching

using a client’s preferred activities and natural environment to teach skills

Chaining

breaks donw a xomplex task into small steps and teaches them in a sequences

ex: washing hands steps

Shaping

teaching new behavior by systemically reinforcing successive approximations until the target behavior is reached

ex: teaching the word juice (juh-joo-juice)

discrimination training

procedure that teaches to differentiate between stimuli and responding appropriately to each one

(touching red object when asked to touch red)

Stimulus Control Transfer

Process of fading prompts so a behavior is no longer associate with an artifiical cue, but instead the natural environment

Prompting

instructual techinque that involves providing cues and assistance to the correcting response

Token system

visual, tangiable, and predictable system of positive reinforcment
