EDF 62231. Definition of Imitation: •A model stimulus is presented in an effort to
evoke the imitative behavior
• The imitative behavior follows immediately
• The model and behavior must have formal similarity
• The model must serve as a controlling variable for the imitative
behavior (SD)
2. Types of Models: •Planned models
-Pre-arranged antecedent stimuli that help learners acquire new skills
-Shows the learner exactly what to do
• Unplanned models
-Occur in everyday social interactions
3. Formal Similarity: •The model and the behavior physically resemble
each other
,4. Immediacy: •The temporal relation between the model and the
occurrence of the imitative behavior is very important
• Imitation may also occur at later times and in the context of
everyday life situations
-However, when this occurs in the absence of a model, it is not imitation
The discriminative features of the environment are different in this
context (i.e., the model is not controlling the behavior
5. Controlled Relation: •The controlling relation between the model and
the imita- tive behavior is paramount
• This is best evidenced when the model is novel and it still
evokes an imitative response
-After this first occurrence, the new behavior has a history of
reinforcement
-Becomes a discriminated operant
6. Imitation Training: •Some children with disabilities require instruction
, in order to learn to imitate
• Objective: to teach children to "do what the model does"
-Generalize a rule to imitate models
-Also known as generalized imitation
7. Steps to Imitation Training(Striefel, 1974): •Assess and teach any
prerequisite skills for imitation training
• Select models for training
• Pretest
• Sequence models for training
• Perform imitation training
8. Assessing/Teaching Prerequisite Skills: •Prerequisite skills needed:
-Attending (staying seated, keeping hands in lap, looking at teacher
when name is called, looking at objects when prompted by teacher)
-Problem behaviors that may interfere with training may need to be
decreased
