Name at least 3 factors that can impact an individual's performance on a behavior chain. Explain each factor and how it impacts performance
What will be an ideal response?
Example answers could be: Completeness of task analysis—impact, a more complete analysis results in better performance. Length/complexity of the chain—impact, the more complex the chain, the more difficult it is to learn. Schedule of reinforcement—impact, the more responses in the chain, the leaner the schedule of natural reinforcement…a more dense schedule of reinforcement may be required. Extinction—impact, earlier responses in the chain will deteriorate more quickly as extinction continues…this will have an impact on subsequent steps because these steps serve as SD s for those steps. Stimulus variation—impact, unless stimulus variation is programmed into instruction, any variation of stimuli within the chain may produce decreased performance on the entire chain because the stimuli won't occasion the correct response
