Punishers are unpleasant events that follow a behavior and decrease the likelihood of that behavior occurring in the future.
The 4-part contingency of operant learning includes:
The 4-part contingency of operant learning includes the motivating operation, antecedent, behavior, and consequence.
A motivating operation:
A motivating operation is a contextual factor that influences the effectiveness of a reinforcer or punisher.
An antecedent is:
An antecedent is a stimulus that occurs before a behavior and influences its occurrence.

A prompt is an antecedent stimulus that increases the likelihood of a correct response.
A consequence is:
A consequence is a stimulus that follows a behavior and influences its future occurrence.
Which of the following is NOT one of the seven dimensions of ABA?
Conceptual is not one of the seven dimensions of ABA. The seven dimensions are applied, behavioral, analytic, technological, conceptually systematic, effective, and generality.
Frequency data (event recording) is:
Frequency data (event recording) is a measure of the number of times a behavior occurs within a specified time period.
Duration data is:
Duration data is a measure of the length of time a behavior occurs, from its onset to its offset.
ABC data involves recording:
ABC data involves recording the antecedent, behavior, and consequence for each instance of the target behavior.
Interval recording is:
Interval recording is a form of discontinuous measurement where the presence or absence of a behavior is recorded at predetermined intervals.
Partial interval recording:
Partial interval recording involves recording whether the behavior occurred at least once during each interval, regardless of its duration.
Whole interval recording:
Whole interval recording involves recording whether the behavior occurred for the entire duration of each interval.

Inter-observer agreement (IOA) is the degree to which two or more observers agree on the occurrence and non-occurrence of a behavior, typically expressed as a percentage.
Trial-by-trial data involves recording:
Trial-by-trial data involves recording the response and its correctness (correct, incorrect, prompted, or non-response) for each trial during a session.

The attention function of behavior involves:
The attention function of behavior involves engaging in a behavior to gain attention from others, whether it be positive or negative attention.
The tangible function of behavior involves:
The tangible function of behavior involves engaging in a behavior to gain access to preferred items or activities.
Baseline data is:
Baseline data is data collected before an intervention is implemented to establish the current level of performance and serve as a basis for comparison.
A functional analysis involves:
A functional analysis involves systematically manipulating antecedents and consequences to identify the function of a behavior under controlled conditions.
A functional behavior assessment (FBA) may include all of the following EXCEPT:
A functional behavior assessment (FBA) does not typically involve the determination of the most effective punishment procedures, but rather focuses on identifying the function of the behavior and developing a positive behavior support plan.
Replacement behaviors should:
Replacement behaviors should serve the same function as the problem behavior, be socially acceptable and appropriate, and be easier to perform than the problem behavior.
Determining the function of a behavior is important because it helps:
Determining the function of a behavior is important because it helps select the most appropriate replacement behavior that serves the same function as the problem behavior.
The three principles of behavior are:
The three principles of behavior are reinforcement, punishment, and extinction.
Reinforcement:
Reinforcement can involve either the presentation of a stimulus (positive reinforcement) or the removal of a stimulus (negative reinforcement).
Punishment:
Punishment can involve either the presentation of an aversive stimulus (positive punishment) or the removal of a reinforcing stimulus (negative punishment).
Extinction involves:
Extinction involves withholding reinforcement for a previously reinforced behavior, leading to a decrease in the frequency of that behavior over time.
An extinction burst is:
An extinction burst is a temporary increase in the frequency or intensity of a behavior when reinforcement is initially withheld during the extinction process.
Spontaneous recovery refers to:
Spontaneous recovery is the reappearance of a previously extinguished behavior after a period of time has elapsed since the extinction process began.
Negative reinforcement involves:
Negative reinforcement involves the removal of an aversive stimulus following a behavior, which increases the likelihood of that behavior occurring in the future.
The term "behavior" in applied behavior analysis refers to:
In applied behavior analysis, the term "behavior" encompasses both observable actions and covert or private events, such as thoughts and emotions, that can be objectively defined and measured.
