QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
4 criteria of imitation - 1. the imitative behavior is occasioned by another person's
model of the behavior
2. the imitative behavior has formal similarity with the model
3. the imitative behavior follows the modeled behavior closely in time
4. the model is the primary controlling variable for the imitative behavior
model - an antecedent stimulus with topographical similarity to the behavior the analyst
wants to be imitated
planned models - prearranged demonstrations of behavior that show the learner
exactly what to do, be it acquiring new skills or refining the topography of certain
elements of existing skills
-can be live or filmed
unplanned models - occasion imitation in everyday social environments
formal similarity - occurs when the model's and the imitator's behavior physically
resemble each other and are in the same mode
T/F: delayed behaviors replicating the topography of a model are imitative - false, a
close temporal relationships between the model's performance and the learner's
behavior is an important feature of imitation
what is the most important property defining imitation? - the controlling relation between
a model's demonstration and a learner's performance of topographically similar
behavior
when is a controlling relation between the model's behavior and the imitator's behavior
inferred? - when a model evokes a similar behavior without a prior history of
reinforcement
T/F: an imitative behavior is a new behavior that follows a novel antecedent event - true
imitation training - a systematic, research-based set of steps for teaching a non-
imitative learner to imitate models of noel behavior
, imitation training protocol (1): assess, and teach if necessary, prerequisite skills for
imitation training - attending to the model is a prerequisite skill for imitation training.
assess the skills for a minimum of 3 sessions and begin training if assessment data
shows adequate attending skills
imitation training protocol (2): - practitioners may need to select and use about 25
behaviors as models during imitation training. including gross motor and fine motor
movements as models provides learners with opportunities to develop more refined
differentiation with their imitative skills. initial training usually includes models of the
movement of body parts and the manipulation of physical objects
imitation training protocol (3): pretest - the learner's response to the selected models
should be pretested:
1. prepare the learner's attending behaviors for the pretest
2. if using an object mode, place 1 in front of the learner and 1 in front of yourself
3. say the learner's name to start, and when the learner makes eye contact, say, "do
this"
4. present the model
5. immediately praise each response that has formal similarity to the model, and deliver
reinforcement ASAP
6. record the learner's response as correct, incorrect, or as an approximation of the
model
7. continue pretesting with the remaining models
imitation training protocol (4): sequence selected models for training - use the pretest to
arrange the presentation sequence for the selected models, arranging the sequence
from the easiest to the most difficult models to imitate. the first models selected are
those that the learner imitated correctly on some, but not all, of the pretest trials. the
models that the learner responded to incorrectly, but that approximated the model, are
selected next. finally, the models that the learner failed to perform, or performed
incorrectly, are the last to be selected for training
conduct imitation training sessions: preassessment - use the first 3 models currently
selected for training and present them 3 times each in random order. if the learner's
behavior has similarity to the model on all 3 presentations, that model is removed from
the training. allows practitioners to evaluate the learner's current performance on the
models selected for training that session, and to determine the learner's progress in
learning to respond to the model
conduct imitation training sessions: training - practitioners use repeated presentations
of 1 of the 3 models used in the preassessment. the model selected first is the one most
often responded to during the preassessment. if the learner made only approximations,
the behavior with the closest similarity to the model is selected first for training. training
continues until the learner responds to the model correctly on 5 consecutive trials
