  • Creating Stimulus Control 1
    Running head: CREATING STIMULUS CONTROL 1 Creating Stimulus Control In a Classroom for Children with Autism Emily Levy California State University, Fresno Emily This is wonderful, best in the class, doesn’t need editing….very very good. CREATING STIMULUS CONTROL 2 CREATING STIMULUS CONTROL 3 Abstract Human behavior, throughout the day, is guided by certain stimuli that signal a person what response or action is required. The term “stimulus control” is used to describe the situation when a behavior occurs in the presence of some stimuli and not others (Cooper, Heron, & Heward, 2006). Stimulus control can be created through differential reinforcement. It is commonly used with children with autism during discrete trial lessons. Stimulus control can be used in a classroom environment to increase the on-task behavior of the students. Keywords: stimulus control, differential reinforcement, classroom, autism CREATING STIMULUS CONTROL 4 Creating Stimulus Control: In a Classroom for Children with Autism It is estimated that one in 110 children in the United States have autism spectrum disorder (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2011). Autism is a developmental disability that affects most children by the age of three years (American Psychiatric Association [DSM-IV-TR], 2000). There is no known cause for autism. The three main characteristics for a diagnosis of autism are deficits in language, deficits in social interactions, and restrictive, repetitive behavior. The field of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) implements a behavioral model that is acknowledged as an empirically validated treatment for children with autism (Schreibman, 2000). This behavioral model composes about two-thirds of the established, effective treatments for children with autism as found in the National Standards Project by the National Autism Center (2009).

    Your students can perform “classic” experiments that closely resemble those discussed in Miltenberger’s text Sniffy™ the Virtual Rat Lite, Version 2.0, Second Edition By Tom Alloway, Greg Wilson, and Jeff Graham Order the text packaged with Sniffy Lite and save your students money! Use: 0-495-42745-4 Students realize all of the benefi ts of using a real rat with none of the drawbacks as they master the concepts of classical and operant conditioning by training Sniffy Bring the theories of learning to life using Sniffy the Virtual Rat. Instructors across the country have praised Sniffy, a realistic digital rat in a Skinner Box, for his ability to give students hands- on experience in setting up and conducting experiments that demonstrate the phenomena of classical and operant conditioning. Users begin by training Sniffy to press a bar to obtain food. Then, they progress to studies of more complex learning phenomena. Throughout each study, a series of “Mind Windows” enables students to visualize how Sniffy’s experiences in the chamber produce the psychological changes that they’re learning in your course. Available on a cross-platform CD-ROM, the Lite version of Sniffy includes 16 exercises that cover the essential phenomena of learning psychology. Students grow to love Sniffy as he helps them learn to: • Simulate classical conditioning phenomena including acquisition, extinction, and spontaneous recovery. • Simulate operant conditioning phenomena including magazine training; shaping; extinction; primary and secondary reinforcement; variable-interval, variable-ratio, fi xed-interval, and fi xed-ratio schedule effects; and the partial-reinforcement effect. • Measure responses employed by research psychologists in a data form that can be printed and turned in for class assignments.

  • Transfer of Stimulus Control Across Instrumental Responses Is Attenuated by Extinction in Human Instru- Mental Conditioning
    International Journal of Psychology and Psychological Therapy 2005, Vol. 5, Nº 3, pp. 207-222 Transfer of Stimulus Control across Instrumental Responses is attenuated by Extinction in Human Instru- mental Conditioning A. Matías Gámez and Juan M. Rosas* Universidad de Jaén, España ABSTRACT D Transfer of behavioral control by a discriminative stimulus (S ) between different instru- mental responses trained with the same outcome has been consistently observed in nonhuman animals, regardless of whether the discriminative stimulus and the instrumental response have undergone extinction. Based on this result, it has been proposed that extinction of D nonhuman instrumental learning does not affect S -outcome associations. Two experiments explored whether this was the case in human instrumental conditioning. Both experiments used a video-game task where participants pressed different colored keys to defend Andalusia from the attack of ships and planes. Key-pressing was reinforced with the destruction of the ship or plane. In Experiment 1 removing the response-contingent outcome extinguished the instrumental response, while responding to a non-extinguished response remained high. D As in the animal literature, Experiment 2 found positive transfer of an S between different D responses that produce the same outcome, suggesting the formation of a S -outcome association in human instrumental conditioning. Contrary to what has been found with nonhuman D animals, extinction of the response in the presence of the S eliminated the transfer effect, D suggesting that the S -outcome association is deteriorated in human instrumental extinction. Key-words: Human instrumental conditioning; extinction, contents of learning, transfer test. RESUMEN La transferencia en el control de estímulos en la respuesta instrumental es atenuada por la extinción en el condicionamiento instrumental humano.

  • Paradoxical Intention Therapy Colin A
    Chapter 6 Paradoxical Intention Therapy Colin A. Espie University of Glasgow Sleep Centre, Sackler Institute of Psychobiological Research, University of Glasgow, Scotland, UK PROTOCOL NAME Paradoxical Intention (PI) therapy. GROSS INDICATION Paradoxical intention is thought to be ideal for insomnia disorder, particu- larly where there is intense preoccupation about sleep, sleep loss, and its con- sequences. The psychophysiological insomnia phenotype, as characterized in ICSD-2, couples sleep preoccupation with the notion of “striving” to sleep, and the maladaptive relationship between effort to sleep and ability to sleep [1]. SPECIFIC INDICATION There is no evidence to suggestion that Paradoxical Intention (PI) therapy is differentially effective in the sleep onset and sleep maintenance insomnia sub- types. The rationale for PI therapy, however, seems particularly appropriate for the psychophysiological insomnia phenotype (as stated above). There are two studies that suggest that reduction of sleep-related anxiety and performance effort may be the mechanism by which PI has its effect [2,3], but there are no formal clinical trials that demonstrate greater efficacy of PI in those insomnia patients who exhibit greater sleep effort. CONTRAINDICATIONS Two related notes of caution when considering PI therapy. First, PI is not suitable for patients who adopt a very concrete approach [4], or who are cognitively impaired. PI instructions (such as “remain awake for as long as possible”) are not literal commands to be implemented in an unthinking, mechanistic way. Rather, PI presents a cognitively challenging perspective on insomnia. It is important that patients understand that PI is a vehicle for a change in outlook as well as a change in behavior.

  • Hypnotic Relaxation and Insomnia: a Simple Solution? Harry E
    Hypnotic Relaxation and Insomnia: A Simple Solution? Harry E. Stanton, Ph.D. Objective: After a brief review of the use of behavioral strategies in the treatment of sleep onset insomnia, attention is centered upon one such strategy, hypnotic relaxation. Methods: A specific technique embracing visualization of a garden scene; letting go of problems; and a special place visualization, is described and its application to the problem of insomnia illustrated by means of three case studies. Results: Each of these studies deals with a different type of insomnia: 1) slow sleep onset, 2) waking during the night, and 3) difficulty in sleeping during the day. Conclusions: The success of the technique with all three cases suggests it might well be used more widely in the treatment of insomnia.

EDRS PRICE MF-$0.6F HC-$3.29 DESCRIPTORS *Behavioral Sciences; A4Behavior Theories; *Individual Development; *Psychology; *Self Control ABSTRACT Behavioral humanism is defined as the synthesis of behav4.oral techniques with humanistic goals. Contemporary humanism, especially humanistic psychology, offers directions for the kind of behavior that individuals should be able to engage in; contemporary behaviorism offers principles and procedures to help individuals increase their humanistic actions. The intensive experimental study of the individual (N-1)is discussed as an intimate research strategy appropriate to humanistic concerns. Freedom is viewed as the power to control the variables that infillence one's behavior. Behavioral self-control by means of self-observation, individual programming, and environmental planning is offered as a means of developing humanistic behavior. An initial translation of humanistic concerns into action (response) is nffered. The purpose of the research reported here is to create and empirically validate techniques to help individuals develop self-control skills. An extensive bibliography is i.ncluded.

  • Relapse Prevention
    Relapse Prevention An Overview of Marlatt’s Cognitive-Behavioral Model Mary E. Larimer, Ph.D., Rebekka S. Palmer, and G. Alan Marlatt, Ph.D. Relapse prevention (RP) is an important component of alcoholism treatment. The RP model proposed by Marlatt and Gordon suggests that both immediate determinants (e.g., high-risk situations, coping skills, outcome expectancies, and the abstinence violation effect) and covert antecedents (e.g., lifestyle factors and urges and cravings) can contribute to relapse. The RP model also incorporates numerous specific and global intervention strategies that allow therapist and client to address each step of the relapse process. Specific interventions include identifying specific high-risk situations for each client and enhancing the client’s skills for coping with those situations, increasing the client’s self-efficacy, eliminating myths regarding alcohol’s effects, managing lapses, and restructuring the client’s perceptions of the relapse process. Global strategies comprise balancing the client’s lifestyle and helping him or her develop positive addictions, employing stimulus control techniques and urge- management techniques, and developing relapse road maps. Several studies have provided theoretical and practical support for the RP model. KEY WORDS:AODD (alcohol and other drug dependence) relapse; relapse prevention; treatment model; cognitive therapy; behavior therapy; risk factors; coping skills; self efficacy; expectancy; AOD (alcohol and other drug) abstinence; lifestyle; AOD craving; intervention; alcohol cue; reliability (research methods); validity (research methods); literature review elapse, or the return to heavy cess, a series of events that unfold over alcohol use following a period of time (Annis 1986; Litman et al. 1979; MARY E.
