Teaching Using Error Correction & Transfer Trials

[@happy123495]

Thank you ladies! This was so helpful I tend to run a errorless with a transfer trial with my clients. I wanted to make sure that I was doing it correctly and I am! This was so informative and simple!! So amazing!

thank you!

Great video format, and very informative! As I was watching I got to thinking that it might be better to present the Sd again before the errorless prompt instead of presenting the prompt immediately after the error. Example T - "Point to the car" S - Error T - "Point to the car" & prompt delivery S - Correctly points to car (ideally) Prompting right after an error without re-presenting the initial Sd might teach a stronger association between the prompt and the desired response. That's great - in a way - but we want that association to form more between the Sd and the desired response. Otherwise, we might start observing that the learner is becoming dependent on prompts (child responds only/mostly to the prompt instead of Sd).

[@HowtoABA]

Yes, you can do that. We’ll often model the word while providing that prompt. So if the sd was point to the car and they don’t, we would say “car” while prompting

When she is tested, if she were to get it wrong again, how would you record it? And would you do errorless prompt again? At what point is the trial over?

[@HowtoABA]

This entire process would be considered one trial and marked incorrect (or prompted). The new trial would use the same process. If you're finding that you need to use error correction on each trial, then re-evaluate the program, the target, the prompt level, etc.

What about when it’s an intraverbal or tacting and they are responding vocally and you can’t gesture before they error?

[@HowtoABA]

It would look a little different. If the student errors (says the wrong answer), you could: 1. Error correction with least-to-most prompting (text prompt or verbal prompt) 2. Mark trial an incorrect Then do transfer trial: 3. Re-present SD 4. Prompt errorlessly through response (differentially reinforce behaviour here) No data on this. Then do expanded trial: 5. Re-present SD 6. Be ready to prompt. If student gets it correct, reinforce. If students errs, go back to step 1 (up to 3 times) We will try and do a video on this soon!

@@HowtoABA Has this video been created? I'm interested to see! :) Also your video was super helpful.

Great Video!! Thank you!

Would this be the same for Gross Motor imitation?

[@HowtoABA]

Yes, it would look similar

Thanks for this video!!!

You are so welcome!

This is error correction right ?

[@HowtoABA]

Yes it is!
