After listening, try a few example questions from our comprehensive study guide below, and don’t forget to comment your answers! In this episode of ABA Chapter Chat we take a deep dive into Chapter 28 of Applied Behavior Analysis by Cooper et. al. 3rd edition. This chapter explores three behavior change strategies: token economies, group contingencies, and contingency contracting. Token economies are systems where individuals earn tokens for desired behaviors and then exchange those tokens for rewards. Group contingencies involve rewarding an entire group based on the behavior of one or more members, and can be classified as independent, dependent, or interdependent. Contingency contracting utilizes written agreements between individuals that specify a relationship between task completion and a reward. Each strategy is explained in detail, including its components, implementation guidelines, and potential applications. Take a deep dive into this chapter and test your knowledge with a few example questions from our comprehensive study guide. Be sure to comment your answers below! Happy listening! 1.
