Book Description
Conventional matching is a familiar program to anyone engaged in early intensive behavioral intervention and is often one of the first programs introduced. The purpose of matching is to foster identification of similarity or connectedness. However, it is not only for these reasons it should to be taught. Matching can be employed as a vehicle to enhance interpersonal awareness and executive function. The exercises in this ABA mini-manual introduce ways in which this is achieved. Such platforms are unique and of considerable value when building ABA-EIBI programs.. Detailed procedures are provided as well as recommendations for troubleshooting and generalization of this essential domain.

ABA Mini Manual: Imitation
Author: Alan Schnee, BCBA-D
Publisher: nexus autism intervention publishers
ISBN:
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 18
Book Description
Imitating what others do is a fundamental way children learn. For many autistic children, this mode of learning does not come easily. Thus, learning to imitate may take considerable time, practice and precise behavioral shaping. This mini-manual includes many standard exercises. Also included are more complex imitation exercises which involve time delay, observational learning and extended sequences of imitative responding and serve to generalize imitation abilities.

ABA Mini-Manual: Level One
Author: Alan Schnee, Ph.D, BCBA-D
Publisher: nexus autism intervention publishers
ISBN:
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 100
Book Description
The exercises in the ABA Mini-Manuals cover a broad array of language domains and illuminate the relatedness between them. This collection of exercises is intended to serve as a starting point for teaching language to autistic children who struggle to do so. The approach is systematic, integrative and constructional. There is sufficient procedural detail and explanation of purpose so it is clear to anyone engaged in this particular teaching approach how to proceed. This should be of value to anyone and may be of particular value to BCBAs needing to provide detailed procedures and purpose when supervising and writing goals to satisfy the stringencies of insurance companies. Users of this series may appreciate how targeted abilities are extended and integrated in fine grained, detailed steps leading to generalization and more complex abilities. The collection provides a valuable resource for BCBAs, family members or other professionals looking for ideas when writing goals, seeking help when thinking about how to build programs or if searching for guidance when confronting the intricacies, and complexities of building language based programming in the early stages of learning and intervention.

ABA Mini Manual: Early Learning

Publisher: nexus autism intervention publishers
ISBN:
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 14
Book Description
Get off to a good start with these early programs. They set the stage for later programming and include; following one and two-step instructions, one and two step object identification, person identification, responding to name, following the instruction "come here", and more. Also included is a critically important program, 'Say vs. Do'. This program teaches children to respond to the conditional discrimination "say". This ability allows for teaching children, for example, to use pronouns, to give instructions, to ask questions by eliminating echoic interference. As in all the books in this series, exquisitely detailed procedures for instruction are provided as are abundant suggestions for generalization.

ABA Mini-Manual: Level Two: Beyond the basics
Author: Alan Schnee, Ph.D., BCBA-D
Publisher: nexus autism intervention publishers
ISBN:
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 108
Book Description
Beyond the basics covered in Level One (matching, imitation, requesting early expressive and receptive language, joint attention), the concepts and linguistic abilities addressed in Level Two are decidedly more challenging for many autistic children. Concepts under consideration in Level Two include, ‘same and different’, ‘parts and whole’, ‘prepositions’, ‘pronouns’, ‘negation’, ‘who, what, where distinctions', 'singular-plural', 'actions and tenses' as well as others. Early acquisition of these concepts requires highly specific teaching arrangements. This manual lays out, in meticulous detail, ways we have found helpful for children to acquire these concepts and begin to generalize them. These exercises establish the foundations necessary for eventual integration of these concepts and abilities into everyday linguistic practice. These exercises illuminate, as in in Level One, the interdependence of abilities and the inherent complexity of teaching language and the considerations for what it takes to acquire these concepts at rudimentary levels.

The Matching Law
Author: Richard J. Herrnstein
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 9780674001770
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 350
Book Description
This impressive collection features Richard Herrnstein's most important and original contributions to the social and behavioral sciences--his papers on choice behavior in animals and humans and on his discovery and elucidation of a general principle of choice called the matching law. In recent years, the most popular theory of choice behavior has been rational choice theory. Developed and elaborated by economists over the past hundred years, it claims that individuals make choices in such a way as to maximize their well-being or utility under whatever constraints they face; that is, people make the best of their situations. Rational choice theory holds undisputed sway in economics, and has become an important explanatory framework in political science, sociology, and psychology. Nevertheless, its empirical support is thin. The matching law is perhaps the most important competing explanatory account of choice behavior. It views choice not as a single event or an internal process of the organism but as a rate of observable events over time. It states that instead of maximizing utility, the organism allocates its behavior over various activities in exact proportion to the value derived from each activity. It differs subtly but significantly from rational choice theory in its predictions of how people exert self-control, for example, how they decide whether to forgo immediate pleasures for larger but delayed rewards. It provides, through the primrose path hypothesis, a powerful explanation of alcohol and narcotic addiction. It can also be used to explain biological phenomena, such as genetic selection and foraging behavior, as well as economic decision making.

Book Description
These early learning exercises in imitation, matching, receptive language and joint attention illustrate the kind of analysis and synthesis required when considering the complicated undertaking of teaching children with autism using discrete trial methods. These exercises establish strong rudimentary abilities in these areas and are not intended to be comprehensive in scope. The manual is free of jargon and theory and provides step-by-step direction, broad extensions (generalization), suggestions for troubleshooting and other considerations when ''running' these exercises. These early exercises are often intricate and are designed for practitioners and parents comfortable employing discrete trial methods.
