Across
  1. 3. Discrimination / degree to which antecedent stimuli set the occasion for particular responses
  2. 6. Operation / Motivating operation that decreases the reinforcing effectiveness of a consequence
  3. 7. / Sometimes the new behavior and the problem behavior can’t be done at the same time
  4. 8. analysis / process of identifying the variables that are functionally related to human behavior
  5. 12. / the reinforcer that maintains a problem behavior is delivered on a fixed-time (FT) or variable-time (VT) schedule
  6. 14. / response is followed immediately by a stimulus change that decreases the future frequency of a behavior
  7. 16. assessment / direct observation of problem behavior in various environmental situations
  8. 17. / the individual is required to engage in an effortful behavior that is directly or logically related to the problem behavior
  9. 18. Interval / the reinforcer is delivered for the first behavior after an average period of time has elapsed
  10. 20. reinforcement / type of reinforcement is not delivered by someone else – the person produces the reinforcement himself.
  11. 21. / If A = B and B = C, THEN A = C
  12. 23. reinforcement /
Down
  1. 1. / withholding of reinforcement following instances of problem behavior
  2. 2. out / the response-contingent loss of access to reinforcement
  3. 4. / based on responses
  4. 5. assessment / used to estimate frequency/severity of problem in different environmental contexts
  5. 9. recording / collecting data on each instance of the target response
  6. 10. stimulus / the function of a SD is to signals the availability of reinforcement
  7. 11. blocking / physically intervening as soon as the individual begins to emit the problem behavior to block the completion of that response
  8. 13. prompt/ involved the addition behavior on part of the instructor to evoke the desired behavior (stimuli added to a child’s response)
  9. 15. signals the unavailability of reinforcement
  10. 19. / attempts to capture antecedent-behavior-consequence contingency
  11. 22. / based on first correct response after a time interval
  12. 24. ratio / the reinforcer is delivered after a fixed number of behaviors
