Community reinforcement approach and family training
Community reinforcement approach and family training (CRAFT) is a behavior therapy approach in psychotherapy for treating addiction developed by Robert J. Meyers in the late 1970s. Meyers worked with Nathan Azrin in the early 1970s whilst he was developing his own community reinforcement approach (CRA) which uses operant conditioning (also called contingency management) techniques to help people learn to reduce the power of their addictions and enjoy healthy living.
Système d'économie de jetons
Un système d'économie symbolique ou système d'économie de jetons est un système de gestion des contingences basé sur le renforcement systématique du comportement cible. Les renforts sont des symboles ou jetons qui peuvent être échangés contre d'autres renforts. Une économie symbolique est basée sur les principes du conditionnement opérant et de l'économie comportementale et peut se situer dans le cadre de l'analyse comportementale appliquée. Dans les milieux appliqués, les économies symboliques sont utilisées avec les enfants et les adultes.
Systematic desensitization
Systematic desensitization, or graduated exposure therapy, is a behavior therapy developed by the psychiatrist Joseph Wolpe. It is used when a phobia or anxiety disorder is maintained by classical conditioning. It shares the same elements of both cognitive-behavioral therapy and applied behavior analysis. When used in applied behavior analysis, it is based on radical behaviorism as it incorporates counterconditioning principles. These include meditation (a private behavior or covert conditioning) and breathing (a public behavior or overt conditioning).
Programmed learning
Programmed learning (or programmed instruction) is a research-based system which helps learners work successfully. The method is guided by research done by a variety of applied psychologists and educators. The learning material is in a kind of textbook or teaching machine or computer. The medium presents the material in a logical and tested sequence. The text is in small steps or larger chunks. After each step, learners are given a question to test their comprehension. Then immediately the correct answer is shown.
Three-term contingency
The three-term contingency (also known as the ABC contingency) in operant conditioning—or contingency management—describes the relationship between a behavior, its consequence, and the environmental context. The three-term contingency was first defined by B. F. Skinner in the early 1950s. It is often used within ABA to alter the frequency of socially significant human behavior. The antecedent stimulus occurs first in the contingency and signals that reinforcement or punishment is available on the contingency of a specific behavior.
Counterconditioning
Counterconditioning (also called stimulus substitution) is functional analytic principle that is part of behavior analysis, and involves the conditioning of an unwanted behavior or response to a stimulus into a wanted behavior or response by the association of positive actions with the stimulus. For example, when training a dog, a person would create a positive response by petting or calming the dog when the dog reacts anxiously or nervously to a stimulus. Therefore, this will associate the positive response with the stimulus.
Behavioral engineering
Behavioral engineering, also called applied behavior analysis, is intended to identify issues associated with the interface of technology and the human operators in a system and to generate recommended design practices that consider the strengths and limitations of the human operators. "The behavior of the individual has been shaped according to revelations of 'good conduct' never as the result of experimental study." Watson wrote in 1924 "Behaviorism ... holds that the subject matter of human psychology is the behavior of the human being.
Méthodes d'intervention en autisme
Les méthodes d'intervention en autisme sont des stratégies ou méthodes visant à aider les personnes autistes à compenser leur situation de handicap. Comme le précise l'OMS, il n'existe pas de traitement curatif de l'autisme. Issues de diverses théorisations, ces approches sont principalement éducatives et psychothérapeutiques. Elles peuvent suivre d'autres aspects. Il existe enfin une dimension médicameuteuse, voire alimentaire.
Shaping (psychology)
Shaping is a conditioning paradigm used primarily in the experimental analysis of behavior. The method used is differential reinforcement of successive approximations. It was introduced by B. F. Skinner with pigeons and extended to dogs, dolphins, humans and other species. In shaping, the form of an existing response is gradually changed across successive trials towards a desired target behavior by reinforcing exact segments of behavior.
Positive behavior support
Positive behavior support (PBS) uses tools from applied behaviour analysis and values of normalisation and social role valorisation theory to improve quality of life, usually in schools. PBS uses functional analysis to understand what maintains an individual's challenging behavior and how to support the individual to get these needs met in more appropriate way, instead of using 'challenging behaviours'. People's inappropriate behaviors are difficult to change because they are functional; they serve a purpose for them.
