![]() ![]() I provide examples of research in each category, across basic and applied settings, including terminology used by the author(s) to describe each procedure. Three broad categories are proposed: Gradual Changes in Discriminative Stimuli, Response Requirement, and Reinforcement. I propose a taxonomy in which gradual change procedures are categorized according to the functional component of the contingency on which they act. ![]() Similar terms are used to describe functionally distinct procedures (e.g., stimulus fading, delay fading, demand fading), and distinct terms are used to describe functionally similar procedures (e.g., leaning, demand fading). However, navigating the gradual change literature can be challenging. Collectively, gradual change procedures represent a conceptually systematic technology of behavior change with wide-ranging empirical support across diverse settings and contexts. Such procedures include shaping, thinning, fading, and chaining. A wide variety of procedures within behavior analysis use gradual change in stimuli, response requirements, reinforcement, or some combination thereof, to effectively change behavior. ![]()
