Strategies for promoting generalization of behavior change that involve arranging stimulus situations during training include:
A) incorporating a variety of relevant stimulus situations
B) reinforcing occurrences of behavior
C) incorporating common stimuli
D) A and C

Question

​Strategies for promoting generalization of behavior change that involve arranging stimulus situations during training include:
A) ​incorporating a variety of relevant stimulus situations
B) ​reinforcing occurrences of behavior
C) ​incorporating common stimuli
D) ​A and C

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Incorporating a variety of relevant stimulus situations (A) helps to teach the individual to respond in various settings and situations, while incorporating common stimuli (C) helps to increase the likelihood that the behavior will be exhibited in similar situations outside of training. Reinforcing occurrences of behavior (B) is important for promoting behavior maintenance, but alone does not necessarily promote generalization of behavior change. Therefore, choices A and C are important for promoting generalization of behavior change through arranging stimulus situations during training.
