PSYB45H3 Lecture 9: lecture 9 notes
Document Summary
Psyb45 lecture 9: baseball picture, discriminatory stimulus before doing the behaviour. the ball when the pitcher pitches it: antecedent stimulus to prompt a target behaviour, eg kid writing words on whiteboard. target behaviour is to write a word. a discriminative stimulus would be asking them to write something. sd would be to write the word prompt. In this case the teacher is guiding the learner"s hand: always talk about the teacher vs. the learner when talk about response prompt, physical prompt, teacher guides client physically as to how to do something. purple bar shows engagement/involvement of the teacher. orange shows the person doing the action independently: transfer of stimulus control, prompt fading. by removing eg the contact slowly away from a person when teaching them how to swing a bat: stimulus fading. target behaviour is getting someone to say the answer to the problem: aka the response.
