RBT Behavior Reduction

Behavior Plan

1. operational definitions of target behavior

2. antecedent modifications

3. replacement behavior

4. consequence modifications

5. persons responsible

6. emergency measures

7. function of behavior

behavior functions

attention, access to tangibles, escape, automation reinforcement

antecedents

things that occur before the identified behavior or skill

motivating operations

identifies the degree to which the learner will be reinforced by the consequences of their behavior

establishing operation

increases the effectiveness of a reinforcer,

discriminative stimuli

stunyli that are used to elicit a specific response.

differential reinforcement of incompatible behavior (DRI)

reinforcing behaviors that are incompatible with the problem behavior while withholding reinforcement for the problem behavior

differential reinforcement of alternate behavior (DRA)

reinforcing a behavior that serves as a viable alternative for the problem behavior but is not necessarily incompatible with the problem behavior

differential reinforcement of other behavior (DRO)

deliver reinforcement whenever the problem does not occur during a predetermined amount of time

differential reinforcement of low rates (DRL)

reduces the frequency of a behavior but not eliminate it from the learners repertoire entirely

extinction

no longer reinforcing a previously reinforced behavior
