Target Behaviors
• Noncompliance• Verbal and physical aggression (includes being
bossy) • These often come together in bursts or
episodes• Once she starts, she’s hard to get back on
track

BSP and Replacement Behaviors
• By Michael • Focuses on increasing – Functional communication– Alternative adaptive sensory activities – Compliance
• Uses functional communication training to get Andrea to use socially appropriate functional words rather than exhibiting aggression

Why We Needed Something Else
• Michael’s plan worked perfectly– If I was implementing it
• The staff at the Rochelle Center weren’t effectively observing targeted or replacement behaviors– You could train them on FCT a million times and
they wouldn’t get it (which I did)• Needed something simple (in conjunction with
FCT) to start staff distributing consequences

Distribute Tokens• Green tokens: Immediately after Andrea
independently engages in an appropriate replacement behavior without prompting
• Immediately after Andrea engages in one of the appropriate behaviors listed above with some type of prompt (verbal, gestural)
• Immediately after Andrea engages in a problem behavior and does not respond to prompting

Deliver Reinforcers (or not)
• At the end of the day, the color of the greatest amount of tokens indicates the color of reinforcer she gets (or nothing)
• At first it was necessary to establish pairing by delivering tiny bits of respective reinforcer w/ each token delivered
• Didn’t take long…

Some Notes
• Effective? Maybe…• This token economy is a visual, tangible way
for staff to keep track of behavior• The spikes in both replacement and target
behaviors in the data may be attributed to increased data collection in general
• Before the TE I was seeing no data collection• Continues to maintain, easy to train
