FPE FIT ABA TestQuestions and Complete
Solutions Graded A+
Rule Governed Behavior - Answer: Similar, if not identical to following instructions as both are under the
control of verbal antecedent stimuli. Though, some say an instruction is a type of rule,
others make a distinction between the two.
Rules - Answer: Sometimes defined as contingency specifying stimuli, which may alter the function of
other stimuli, and evoke behavior that doesn't require one to have a history of contacting the
consequence specified by the rule.
Examples of Rules - Answer: If/then statements, "If you go right at the light, then you'll hit Main Street."
Instructions - Answer: Defined as oral or written verbal stimuli, which may be efficient ways to evoke
new behavior, though not necessarily alter the function of other stimuli.
Rules and Instructions are useful for: - Answer: - More quickly getting behavior under the control of a
setting's natural contingencies, e.g., while shaping, chaining, prompting and fading, etc.
- Self-management (or self-control).
- The following of behavioral contracts (i.e., contingency contracts).
Contingency Contracts AKA Behavioral Contracts - Answer: Composed of if/then statements (or rules, as
mentioned
earlier). They specify a dependent relationship between the completion of a specified measurable
behavior and access to a specific reward. They are not the primary means for obtaining skill acquisition,
rather the individual must already demonstrate the performance of the skill or task. Moreover, it's
necessary that an individual's verbal repertoire be proficient enough to allow for his or her behavior to
come under the control of the rules in the ___________.
, Note visual aids like images, recordings, etc. can be used.
Contingency or behavioral contracts can be used for: - Answer: ____________ can be used to alter
behavior in nearly any
setting, e.g., school, home, between school and home,
business, sporting events, etc.
They should be specific regarding the "who, what, when, how well, and how much" of tasks and
rewards.
____________ rules should ensure frequent and immediate
payoffs in small amounts, after small approximations of the target behavior occur.
Every _____________ should be dated and signed by all parties involved.
What happens if a contingency contract or behavioral contract is failing? - Answer: However, if a
______________________ is consistently failing to produce the desired results for any party involved,
then based on the data and input from signing parties, revising the ______________ should be strongly
considered.
Finally, when developing the _________________, consider co-authoring lists of what is currently being
done, and what needs to be done better, from each party's perspective, and fairly negotiate behaviors
and rewards. That is, don't just force your ___________ ideas and rules upon the parties in the
____________, then demand they all sign it!
Self Management - Answer: The application of behavior change strategies to produce a change in one's
own behavior. E.g., abate unwanted behavior and/or evoke desired behavior.
AKA self control.
Self management often involves - Answer: self monitoring
Self Monitoring - Answer: Requires one to observe/record one's own behavior--occasionally resulting in
behavior change without an additional intervention! If contingencies are clear and consistently
implemented, and behavior can come under the governance of rules, then self-management might be
successful.
