Launch the webinar: Receptive Language Skills: Addressing Faulty Stimulus Control
Yvonne Lam, M.A., BCBA, Receptive language involves a learner responding to the vocal verbal behavior of others (Grow & LeBlanc,2013). Deficits in receptive language may result in challenges in a variety of other skill areas such as academics (e.g., reading, writing, and math) and social skills (e.g., following simple instructions, responding to one’s name, receptive identification by name, feature, function, and class). While teaching receptive language skills, errors related to faulty stimulus control are particularly problematic. This webinar will review antecedent-based approaches and consequence-based approaches (i.e., error correction procedures) that are often used to address persistent errors and/or faulty stimulus control.
