Functional Behavior Assessment and Analysis, Exams of Advanced Education

University of MarylandAdvanced Education

The different types of behavior assessments, including indirect, descriptive, and functional analysis (fa). It highlights the importance of conducting a thorough assessment to determine the function of a behavior, rather than relying solely on the topography or appearance of the behavior. Key concepts such as the difference between descriptive and functional assessments, the components of an fa (test and control conditions), the importance of establishing social validity, and the principles of developing a functionally equivalent intervention. It also addresses common myths and misconceptions about fas, such as the belief that they take too long. Overall, the document provides a comprehensive overview of the assessment process and the role of fas in understanding and addressing problem behaviors.

EDF 6226 Exam 2 Graded A+ 2024
____________ assessments often yield corollary results that are often spurious. In
other words, there was no experimental control between the controlling variables. -
ANSWER-descriptive
According to Bailey (1991), the problem with behavior analysis is not that we are
too____________ but rather that we have not realized that we are ultimately in the
business of developing a user friendly product - ANSWER-technological
According to Hanley (2014), a _____ assessment entails observation and
measurement of the problem behavior in the context which it occurs; By contrast, the
_____analysis consists of observation and measurement of problem behavior in at
least two contexts, each distinctly designed so that the variables suspected of
influencing
problem behavior are evident. - ANSWER-Descriptive functional
According to Hanley, a myth of the functional analysis is that it takes too long; however,
he indicated that the ____________ assessment often takes longer because the
practitioner must wait around for the problem behavior to occur. - ANSWER-descriptive
According to Hanley, there are three main types of assessment: [indirect], [descriptive],
and functional analysis. - ANSWER-Indirect, descriptive
According to Hanley's functional analysis procedures, the ___ condition contains the
contingency thought to maintain problem behavior and the _____] condition does not
contain the contingency thought to maintain problem behavior. - ANSWER-test, control
Although there could be more conditions, according to Hanley, the only required
conditions in an FA are - ANSWER-control and test
An FA confirms the function of Behavior - ANSWER-True
An indirect FBA hypothesizes the function of behavior - ANSWER-true
Analog conditions occur in - ANSWER-an FA
Automatic Positive Reinforcement - ANSWER-sensory stimulation (not mediated by
others)
Because different behaviors that look quite different can serve the same function, and
behavior of the same form can serve different functions under different conditions, the
____________ of a behavior often reveals little useful information about the condition -
ANSWER-topography

By conducting open-ended interviews, we not only gain valuable information, but establish social validity by - ANSWER-All of these Contingent Escape - ANSWER-negative reinforcement Control/play conditions - ANSWER-You have everything you need there, shouldn't see any behaviors During a descriptive assessment you manipulate the environment - ANSWER-False, during FA only. Directly observe under natural occurring Extraordinary behaviors often derive from very __________ conditions. - ANSWER- ordinary FA and anFBA are the same thing - ANSWER-False Following an assessment, the intervention created should be ______________ equivalent to problem behavior; that is, if problem behavior serves an escape function, then the intervention should provide escape via a more appropriate response. - ANSWER-functionally Hanley described a boy named "Dale" who made various demands like "I want to sit on your lap on the way to school" - to which the parents allowed this to happen. He is careful to explain that these demands are not due to poor parenting, but rather: - ANSWER-reinforcing early, reasonable hands Hanley provided a workbook to participants in his workshop. What page is the open- ended interview on - ANSWER- Hanley suggested the first step to a functional analysis is to ____________ the stakeholders - avoiding numerical or yes/no responses. - ANSWER-Interview he suspected function of crying is attention. During the attention condition of the FA, this means that each instance of crying is - ANSWER-Reinforced with attention if you FA yields an undifferentiated pattern, what does that mean - ANSWER-repeat the FA, the reinforcer is automatic In an FA, if the condition is "contingent _________", the consequence should be a break from the task. - ANSWER-escape In an FA, if the condition is "contingent attention", the consequence delivered should be_____________. - ANSWER-attention One problem with indirect assessments is that the analyst never even ____________ the behavior. - ANSWER-observe

What are some limitations of descriptive assessments - ANSWER-Waiting for behavior to occur, Misleading, Not very reliable, time consuming What condition does not contain the contingency thought to maintain sever pb behavior

  • ANSWER-control What conditions contains the contingency thought to maintain problem bx - ANSWER- test What does analog conditions mean - ANSWER-Arrangement of variables that are similar to natural variables What does IISCA stand for - ANSWER-Interview-informed synthesized contingency analysis What is an example of social positive reinforcement - ANSWER-Praise What refers to having some idea of what direction of graph would look like if the independent variable was not implemented - ANSWER-prediction What should the x-axis be labelled? - ANSWER-Unit of time When is an analysis truly complete - ANSWER-When you have accounted for all variability in the environment Why would you conduct an FA? - ANSWER-To find the actual cause of behavior, confirm the hypothesis of function of behavior
