provide some help in the form of prompt if needed violent punster child has responded the child is given reinforcement reward for correct response our collection foreign incorrect response straight do this uh... home-based trying leta hartman okay you have just witnessed one discrete trial after a brief pause therapist then begins another complete discrete trial a discrete trial is made up of the following three components an esti in the form of an instruction by the therapist to the child a response from the child or a prompt from the therapist and finally reinforcement of correction if necessary from therapist let's now examine each if these three components in detail starting with the esti third generally and oral instruction esti can also be nonverbal such as a picture picked warren like mister potato head placed on a table where the separatists wing well and couldn't steam as follows several countries in order to be effective first all s_t_d_'s should be clear inconsistent they should be free of extraneous information and finally they should be delivered in a voice slightly louder than a normal speaking tone now we will demonstrate what a good esti looks and sounds like cast uh... half-million ontario the one felony doing match a now with demonstrate what a pro-aristide looks and sounds like tax minority what what what where's my nails have find minority the people play the greatest you once again take note that the therapist speaks clearly inconsistently uses as short concise instruction without extraneous information and speaks slightly louder than he or she normally would cast the what ontario have one felony do this k on activists it's pads do it that's it that's afoot curry tear this don't player for art do this now that we've covered the basics of delivering a good estate we'll move on to the next step indiscreet riles prompting we're waiting for response when first beginning to teach in your task the therapist should immediately contact a giving the esti wine campus implement the systems to help ensure that the child response correctly this teaches the child how here she should respond to the estate indeed anytime a therapist is not certain that the child is capable responding correctly to minister independently the caricature prompt immediately the next step is the gradual removal of the propped this occurs once took a *** believes the skill being caught has been named and once here she is sure at the prompt is no longer needed when removing a private practice must be careful to a great inadvertently giving a double agent this interaction can occur methodist inspection knows the craft response the therapist gives amnesty passes and waits for the child to respond realizes that the child is not going to respond worth responding correctly jumps in with the prompt therapist must decide before delivering a nasty overnight japan and if so to deliver the company delete after the esti we will now move on to the third and final component of the disk retrial reinforcement or correction once a nasty has been given the child responds in one of two ways either the child response correctly in reinforcements yesterday water the child response incorrectly and a corrective procedures supplied we want to get reinforcement which is sometimes called everyone when providing reinforcement to a child there are several key points to keep in mind in order to maximize its effectiveness first borough resources estonia o museum reinforcement is given whether the child response independently or with the help of a prompt the second principle of reinforcement is that it's going to see has to get involved with us if you are excited enthusiastic delivering the reward to travel enjoy the reinforcement more and that will lead to better learning lastly reinforcement should be buried at the same still rewards against all the time they will lose their effectiveness well remembered effective reinforcement is best achieved if given immediately after correct response to the child giving an enthusiastic and involved manner and if the reward is scary there is one eventuality that we have not yet covered what happens if the therapist delivers a nasty and the child gets an incorrect response here to general approaches to dealing with incorrect responses one which is an informational no and one which does not to traditional approach is to use an information on known when the child gives the incorrect response instead of giving a reward the therapist response be saying no in a neutral tone of voice all whereas grandma work here he wants to know how whereas grammar work state library laghari can the no is not going to be a person for punishing he simply meant to provide the neutral information that the response was incorrect and will not be rewarded where does grandma work here he wants to know whereas grammar work state library laghari that their test then goes on to get the same esti again but on that next trial the therapist prompts the child to ensure that the child gets the response correct another approach is to leave out the informational no with this approach if the child gives an incorrect response the therapist pos is a moment without giving reinforcement that does not say no the therapist then begins another discrete triumph that impromptu media be after the estimates saturday places to ensure that the child gets the response correct that's what's the area this morning correction one more time we have not reviewed the three components of the discrete ram the esti itself the prompt awating for response and reinforcement to correction the remaining videos in this series we'll explore these and other topics in detail we hope that you have benefited from this video and that you will continue to learn as you work your way through the series
