Read the protocol below and choose the best answer for the procedure 1. Begin with 2 trials in a block. 2. If no problem behavior for 3 consecutive days, increase to 3 trials in a block. 3. If no problem behavior for 3 consecutive days, move to 4 trials in a block. 4. If no problem behavior for 3 consecutive days, move to 5 trials

Full Question:

Read the protocol below and choose the best answer for the procedure

1. Begin with 2 trials in a block.

2. If no problem behavior for 3 consecutive days, increase to 3 trials in a block.

3. If no problem behavior for 3 consecutive days, move to 4 trials in a block.

4. If no problem behavior for 3 consecutive days, move to 5 trials

A. Differential reinforcement

B. Discrimination training

C. Demand fading

D. None of the above

The answer which best describes the procedure above is C) Demand Fading

Explanation:

Demand fading or Stimulus fading involves introducing or altering a new element, such as color, intensity, or size, to the target stimulus, which is gradually faded by reducing its intensity or components.

Demand fading is a subject under Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). It is used to solve important behavioral problems as well as teach important skills.

Demand fading prevents difficult behaviors by breaking down a huge task into smaller parts then adding some more.

the earth’s crust is broken into separate pieces called tectonic plates (fig. 7.14). recall that the crust is the solid, rocky, outer shell of the planet. it is composed of two distinctly different types of material: the less-dense continental crust and the more-dense oceanic crust. both types of crust rest atop solid, upper mantle material. the upper mantle, in turn, floats on a denser layer of lower mantle that is much like thick molten tar.

each tectonic plate is free-floating and can move independently. earthquakes and volcanoes are the direct result of the movement of tectonic plates at fault lines. the term fault is used to describe the boundary between tectonic plates. most of the earthquakes and volcanoes around the pacific ocean basin—a pattern known as the “ring of fire”—are due to the movement of tectonic plates in this region. other observable results of short-term plate movement include the gradual widening of the great rift lakes in eastern africa and the rising of the himalayan mountain range. the motion of plates can be described in four general patterns:

collision: when two continental plates are shoved together

subduction: when one plate plunges beneath another (fig. 7.15)

spreading: when two plates are pushed apart (fig. 7.15)

transform faulting: when two plates slide past each other (fig. 7.15)
