Time delay
Also called prompt delay
Definition
A prompt-fading method that inserts a pause between the instruction and the prompt, either constant or gradually increasing, so the learner can respond before the prompt.
Example from a session
The RBT waits 0, then 2, then 4 seconds before modeling the answer.
