EBP's (evidence based practices) - Answer-______________ are important for children
with ASD because they have been shown to be effective in teaching appropriate
behaviors and skills and decreasing inappropriate behaviors for a given population.
Antecedent-based intervention - Answer-Arrangement of events or circumstances that
precede the occurrence of an interfering behavior and designed to lead to the reduction
of the behavior.
Cognitive behavioral intervention - Answer-Instruction on management or control of
cognitive processes that lead to changes in overt behavior.
Differential reinforcement of alternative, incompatible, or other behavior - Answer-
Provision of positive/desirable consequences for behaviors or their absence that reduce
the occurrence of an undesirable behavior. Reinforcement provided: a) when the
learner is engaging in a specific desired behavior other than the inappropriate behavior
(DRA), b) when the learner is engaging in a behavior that is physically impossible to do
while exhibiting the inappropriate behavior (DRI), or c) when the learner is not engaging
in the interfering behavior (DRO).
Discrete trial teaching - Answer-Instructional process usually involving one
teacher/service provider and one student/client and designed to teach appropriate
behavior or skills. Instruction usually involves massed trials. Each trial consists of the
teacher's instruction/presentation, the child's response, a carefully planned
consequence, and a pause prior to presenting the next instruction.
Exercise - Answer-Increase in physical exertion as a means of reducing problem
behaviors or increasing appropriate behavior.
Extinction - Answer-Withdrawal or removal of reinforcers of interfering behavior in order
to reduce the occurrence of that behavior. Although sometimes used as a single
intervention practice, extinction often occurs in combination with functional behavior
assessment, functional communication training, and differential reinforcement.
Functional behavior assessment (FBA) - Answer-Systematic collection of information
about an interfering behavior designed to identify functional contingencies that support
the behavior. FBA consists of describing the interfering or problem behavior, identifying
antecedent or consequent events that control the behavior, developing a hypothesis of
the function of the behavior, and/or testing the hypothesis.
