- 2. The ? of the behavior describes why the behavior occurs.
- 7. The number of dimensions of ABA.
- 9. The dimension of ABA which states that the intervention must improve the behavior under investigation to a practical degree.
- 10. The process by which a response is followed by a consequence that results in similar responses occurring more often.
- 12. The philosophy of behaviorism established by Skinner which incorporates private events into an overall conceptual system of behavior.
- 15. This is an attitude of science which relies on objective observation and measurement of the phenomena of interest.
- 16. A skill-based assessment which measures kindergarten readiness. (do not put the dash in your answer)
- 18. Any activity of an organism that can be observed or measured.
- 20. The ? of the behavior describes the form of the behavior.
- 22. A ? class consists of responses that are topographically different but have the same consequences.
- 23. An ? reinforcer is an environmental event which functions as a reinforcer due to it's evolutionary development of the species (another name for primary).
Down
- 1. The branch of ABA which evaluates the theory and philosophy of behavior analysis.
- 3. The dimension of ABA which states that all of the procedures need to be described with sufficient detail and clarity.
- 4. The number of branches of behavior analysis.
- 5. A ? assessment is a method for predicting the extent to which stimuli will function as a reinforcer.
- 6. The philosophy of behaviorism established by Watson which acknowledges the existence of mental events, but do not consider them in the analysis of behavior.
- 7. A ? class consists of stimuli that share one or more formal, temporal, or functional features.
- 8. Assessments in which you directly observe behavior and describe it (ABC analysis and scatterplot) are called ? assessments.
- 11. Which function is described in the scenario: A teacher tell a student to get off the computer, the students starts arguing with the teacher, and then the teacher gives the student 5 more minutes on the computer.
- 13. This is an attitude of science which presumes that the universe is a lawful and orderly place.
- 14. The three goals of science are description, ?, and control.
- 17. Behavior that is elicited by an antecedent stimulus.
- 19. Assessments in which you gather data from caregivers, teachers and other individuals most typically by interview or rating scales are call ? assessments
- 21. Behavior determined primarily by it's history of consequences.
