Delivering reinforcement when the number of responses in a specified period of time is less than or equal to a prescribed limit. This maintains a behavior at a predetermined rate, lower than at its baseline or naturally occurring frequency | Differential reinforcement of lower rates of behavior (DRL) |
Delivering reinforcement when the target behavior is not emitted for a specified period of time. Reinforcement is contingent on the nonoccurrence of a behavior | Differential reinforcement of other behaviors (DRO) |
Reinforcing a more appropriate form of a behavior than the one in which the student is currently engaged. DRA is often used in conjunction with redirecting behavior | Differential reinforcement of alternative behavior (DRA) |
Reinforcing a response that is topographically incompatible with a behavior targeted for reduction | Differential reinforcement of incompatible behavior (DRI) |
Withholding reinforcement for a previously reinforced behavior to reduce the occurrence of the behavior | Extinction |
A consequent stimulus (SR) that increases or maintains the future rate and/or probability of occurrence of a behavior | Reinforcer |
A consequent stimulus that decreases the future rate and/or probability of a behavior | Punisher |
Reducing inappropriate behavior by denying the student access, for a fixed period of time, to the opportunity to receive reinforcement | Time-Out |
A time-out procedure wherein the student is not removed from the instructional setting in which reinforcers are being dispensed. The teacher denies access to reinforcement and manipulates the envir. to signal a period of time during which access is denied | Nonseclusionary time-out |
Denying access to reinforcement by removing a student from an ongoing activity | Exclusionary time-out |
