Each response in a behavioral chain creates the stimulus situation that is the discriminative stimulus for the next response. ANSWER: True False True 3. In task analysis, the 1st step is to identify the discriminative stimulus associated with each behavior in the chain. b. True False ANSWER: False 4. It is important to use as many steps in a task analysis as possible. True h False ANSWER: False 5. Backward chaining procedures are mostly used with individuals who have severe intellectual disabilities. ANSWER: a. b. True False True 6. The difference between forward chaining and backward chaining is where you begin training. b. b. True False ANSWER: True 7. Total task presentation teaches one component of the chain at a time. True b. False ANSWER: False 8. Graduated guidance involves verbal and modeling prompts to lead the learner through the task. ANSWER: b. True False 9. Total task presentation works best for long and complex tasks. True False ANSWER: False 10. Behavioral chaining procedures are used to teach an individual to engage in a complex task.

In behavior modification, a complex behavior made up of a number of component behaviors occurring in a sequence is referred to as a: behavioral chain b. behavioral sequence stimulus-response pattern d. A and C ANSWER: 12. The individual component behaviors that occur in a behavioral chain are called components. overlapping b. contingency с. antecedent d. stimulus-response a ANSWER: d 13. The outcome of each response in the behavioral chain serves as the for the next response in the chain. a. prompt b. discriminative stimulus S-delta d. B and C ANSWER: 14. Which of the following is true concerning a behavioral chain? a. each subsequent response depends on the preceding response b. the entire stimulus-response chain is under stimulus control c. cach subsequent response is independent of the preceding response d. A and B ANSWER: 15. In order for the behavioral chain to continue to occur, the last behavior in the chain must be: reinforced b. prompted C. generalized d. extinguished b d ANSWER: 16.
