*Discrete trial training is a component of applied behavioral analysis (ABA) that identifies a specific behavior to modify and then uses specific antecedents and reinforcements to successively shape the desired behavior.
* The example should be original (not the "say doll" example from the book) and should clearly demonstrate understanding of the A (antecendent)-B (behavior)-C (consequence) method of discrete trial training.
