What is the ABC for verbal imitation?

  1. A: Verbal prompt, B: responds to prompt, C: non specific reinforcement

  2. A: non specific reinforcement, B: Verbal prompt, C: responds to prompt

  3. A: responds to prompt, B: non specific reinforcement, C: Verbal prompt

  4. A: Verbal prompt, B: non specific reinforcement, C: responds to prompt

The correct answer is: A: Verbal prompt, B: responds to prompt, C: non specific reinforcement

ABC stands for antecedent (A), behavior (B), and consequence (C). Verbal prompt is the antecedent, meaning it is the stimulus that cues the person to perform the desired behavior. Responding to the prompt is the behavior, the desired action that is being taught. Non-specific reinforcement is the consequence, meaning it is a general reward or praise given for executing the behavior. Option B is incorrect because it has the antecedent and behavior in the wrong order. Option C is incorrect because it has the behavior and consequence in the wrong order. Both of these options are missing the specific verbal prompt as the antecedent. Option D is incorrect because it has the behavior and consequence in the wrong order and is missing the specific verbal prompt as the antecedent.
