What is the purpose of prompt fading?

  1. To increase assistance to a more intrusive prompt

  2. To reduce assistance to a less intrusive prompt

  3. To completely eliminate the use of prompts

  4. To introduce new and more complex prompts

The correct answer is: To reduce assistance to a less intrusive prompt

Prompt fading is a gradual process that aims to reduce the level of assistance provided by a prompt to the individual receiving it. This is done in order to encourage the development of independent skills and decrease the reliance on external support. Options A and D suggest increasing assistance and introducing new prompts, which goes against the concept of prompt fading. Option C suggests completely eliminating the use of prompts, which may not be feasible or beneficial for an individual who requires some level of support. Therefore, option B is the correct answer as it aligns with the purpose of prompt fading.
