Stimulus Fading            

Explanation:

Fading: The term fading is used in behavioral therapy techniques, for example, behavioral modification in which the initial prompt to get a desired behavior is being vanished or fades away after the behavior is being accomplished.

Stimulus fading: The term stimulus fading refers to the process of changing the physical properties of a specific stimulus methodically, and is often considered as technically behavioral term.

In other words, it is a process in which a spare or an extra stimulus is being used to instruct a particular correct response and is methodically fades out. Here an extra stimulus can be any cue, or picture, etc.
