A behavior checklist describes specific skills and conditions that should be observed. Behavior checklists are customized based on individual needs. They can be arranged by hierarchy (of most important behavior or skill to treat), target one specific behavior or skill area, or address multiple behaviors or skill areas. Behavior Checklists commonly use a Likert scale […]

A discrete trial is a single cycle of a behaviorally-based instruction routine. A particular trial may be repeated several times in succession, several times a day, over several days – or even longer – until the skill is mastered.

Discrete Trial Training (DTT) is an intensive treatment program used to help children with developmental disabilities such as Autism. DTT involves training a child with Autism a variety of skills that they may not pick up on their own. DTT programs usually start by training essential pre-learning skills such as sitting and looking at the […]

Differential Reinforcement of Other Behaviors (DRO) is also known as omission training procedures. It is an instrumental conditioning procedure in which a positive reinforcement is periodically delivered only if the participant does something other than the target response.
