Background Info:
Through the Learning Resources, you discovered the methods used to construct and test a task analysis. An appropriate task analysis provides affirmation that chaining is an intervention technique suitable for use to change or add a behavior. There are four chaining procedures that can be implemented: forward chaining, total-task chaining, backward chaining, and backward chaining with leaps ahead.
For this Discussion, you will identify a behavior in which chaining would be an appropriate intervention technique. You will then apply forward chaining and backward chaining to achieve the same behavior goal.
To Prepare:
Identify a behavior for which chaining would be an appropriate intervention technique.
ASSIGNMENT:
Post an operational definition of the identified target behavior. Provide examples of the behaviors that would be chained using forward chaining and examples that would be chained using backward chaining to reach the same behavior goal.
