Document Summary

A consistent sequence of stimuli and responses that occur closely to each other at a time and in which the last response is typically followed by a reinforcer. Playing a specific song on a specific instrument, brushing your teeth, lacing your shoes. Each response produces a stimulus that serves as an sd for the next response. Sd1 > r1 > sd2 > r2 > sd3 > r3 > . Individual attempts all of the steps from the beginning to the end of the chain on each trail and continues with the total task trials until the person learns the chain. Thee last step is taught first progressing backward to the beginning of the chain. Teach the initial step of the sequence first, then teaches and links together the first and second steps, then the first three steps, and so on. New behaviour along some physical dimension such as topography, amount, or intensity.
