Identify at least 3 ways that a learner could have difficulty with SDs that signal incorrect performance in a behavioral chain and how you would go about correcting these problems. Specifically, what changes would you make to the environment or task analysis to correct the problem?
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Question 2

Assume you want to teach an individual how to use a public telephone. You conduct a task analysis of the skill and end up with the following steps:
 
  i. Locate the telephone
  ii. Find the telephone number
  iii. Choose the correct change
  iv. Pick up receiver in left hand
  v. Put receiver to ear and listen for dial tone
  vi. Insert first coin
  vii. Insert second coin
  viii. Dial 7-digit number
  ix. Wait for telephone to ring a minimum of 5 times
  x. If someone answers, initiate conversation
  xi. If telephone is busy or no one answers, hang up and collect money
  Carefully describe how you would implement forward, backward, and total-task chaining for this task analysis.

Answer to Question 1

Example answers could be: An SD occurs at the right point in a sequenceremedy, rearrange the sequence of the task analysis. A similar SD in close temporal proximity to the target SD is cuing an incorrect responseremedy, separate the two problematic SD s. An irrelevant SD could be interferingremedy, discrimination training. SD s in the natural setting could be different from those in the training settingremedy, incorporate similar SD s into both settings or do some training in the natural setting. Novel stimuli in the environment are competing with relevant stimuliremedy, discrimination training.

Answer to Question 2

When describing the forward chaining procedure, the student should have the learner begin by completing Step 1, then 1 and 2, and so on. When describing backward chaining, the student should have the learner begin by completing the last step, then the last two steps, and so on. When describing total-task chaining, the student should have the learner completing all steps, with the necessary level of assistance from the trainer on each step.
