Which term describes a combination of speed, accuracy, and durability in performance?

• A. Mastery
• B. Response Generalization
• C. Fluency
• D. Skill Acquisition Plan

Answer: (C)

Fluency refers to performing a skill with both speed and accuracy, and with durability so that the performance remains reliable over time and across typical variations. It’s not just knowing the skill or performing it perfectly once; it’s the ability to produce correct responses quickly and consistently, even after a delay or with minor distractions. Mastery emphasizes accuracy, but not the speed and sustained performance aspect. Response Generalization is about applying learned responses to new but similar situations, not about how fast or reliably you perform. A Skill Acquisition Plan is simply a plan for learning, not the quality of current performance.
