Document Summary
Chaining- ex taking a piece of gum and putting in mouth is preceded by many sds and there is always a reinforcement at the end of each step. Each behavior response is cue for next one. You don"t get the natural reinforcing till the end of procedure. We can divide any task into multiple steps. We can make steps easier at first and then move to difficult ones. If every step is taught to perfection we will have errorless learning. If response are not linked by sd, then total task is not gonna take place. Task analysis- any behavior can be broken down. Group of tech have been used for many cases especially with individual with cognitive difficulty. E. g. making a bed involve multiple steps, cleaning face etc. First time the steps might not be very accurate but eventually we get solid steps. We can make the client watch somebody and monitor while making notations.
