Pivotal Response Training (PRT)
Targets increasing social-communicative repertoires and the child's
responsiveness to the environment.
Focuses not only on language, but also on motivation, self-regulation, responding
to multiple cues, and self-initiation of social interactions
functional communication training
An antecedent intervention in which an appropriate communicative behavior is
taught as a replacement behavior for problem behavior usually evoked by an
establishing operation (EO).
TEACCH
A well research program used with individuals with ASD. The program emphasizes
language development and uses a variety of visual cues to facilitate language
development.
Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP)
Special education term used to describe the written plan used to address problem
behavior that includes positive behavioral interventions, strategies and support.
May include program modifications and supplementary aids and services.

specified time.
Should only be used if the function of the problem behavior is attention (peer,

Challenging behaviors
Destructive and/or disruptive such as: hitting, screaming, biting, and swearing.
positive programming
longitudinal, instructional program designed to give the learner greater skills and
competencies for the purpose of controlling or eliminating problem behavior in
order to facilitate and enhance social integration. In this sense it is based on a
functional analysis of the preventing problem and involves the systematic
manipulation of stimulus conditions, consequences, instructional stimuli and
other variables in an effort to establish the new, more adaptive behavioral
repertoire.
positive behavior support plan
Typical plans involve an objective for the intervention, prevention strategies,
replacement behaviors, reinforcers, attention to what should not be reinforced,
and ways to monitor children's progress
delivering consequences
immediacy
operational definition
a statement of the procedures used to define research variables. The procedures
included in definitions should be repeatable by anyone or at least by peers.
onset and offset behavior
Behavior must have a defined beginning and end added to the definition. Doing
so increases the strength of your intervention by increasing the likelihood of
accurate measurement
frequency/rate
Ratio of count per observation time
baseline data
information gathered by scientists to be used as a starting point to compare
changes after the implementation of the independent variable
topography
what a behavior looks like
generallization
intervention can only be deemed a success if change can be shown in different
environments and with multiple people
evidence based
description of medical techniques or practices that are supported by scientific
evidence of their safety and efficacy, rather than merely on supposition and
tradition.
advocacy
Quality advocacy services are person-centered and developed using a coproduction approach that aims to maximize the participation of people who use
