Assessment - Correct Answer A systematic method for obtaining information about the function
challenging Bxs service for an individual.
- Allows us to make empirically-based hypotheses for why BX occur.
- Many methods
Purposes of assessment - Correct Answer - Identifies and defines targets for Bx change.
- Guides us to create effective and positive interventions
- Discovers resources, assets, sig others, competing contingencies, maint & gen'tn factors, potential
R+/punishers for intervention
Ethical preparation for assessment - Correct Answer - You must choose the right BXs for AX, so you
need to know what is socially sig. & be able to prioritize BXs
- Need to be skilled at conducting Axs
- Only accept clients whose BXs or requested svc are commensurate with your education, trng, &
experience.
5 Phases of assessment - Correct Answer (Screens Define Pointing to the Monitor by Following up)
1.Screening and general deposition
2. Defining and quantifying problems or desired achievement criteria
3. Pinpointing target BX to be treated
4. Monitoring progress
5. Following up
,Pre-assessment requirements/considerations
ETHICS - Correct Answer 1. Must ask who has the authority, permission, resources, and skills to
complete an AX and intervene with the BX? If you do not have any one of these, you cannot do the
AX.
2. Also, you should obtain the client's or client-surrogate's approval in writing before implementation
Indirect Ax measures - Correct Answer - Data obtained from recollections, reconstructions, or
subjective ratings of events (interviews and checklists)
- Watch out! These are not as reliable as direct descriptive methods; should only be used to
supplement; they start the hypotheses devpt process
Direct Ax measures - Correct Answer - Provide info about a person's BX as it occurs
(Ax info) - Correct Answer - Direct and repeated in the natural environment
- Identifies potential target BXs
- Preferred method!
, - Anecdotal observation (ABC Recording)
Anecdotal observation - Correct Answer : The basic form of direct observation
- Temporally sequenced description of BX patterns
- Requires total attn of observer for at least 20-30 mins continuously
- Not a good option for classroom teacher b/c cannot commit full attn
- NO interps. Just observable, measurable data
- Carry out for several days so reactivity affects can decrease
Reactivity effects - Correct Answer Effects of an observation/measurmt procedure on the BX being
measured. Usually temporary. It's most likely when measurmt procedures are obtrusive, especially if
the person being observed is aware of the observer's presents & purpose.
Most obtrusive data collection method - Correct Answer Self monitoring
How to reduce reactivity - Correct Answer Be as unobtrusive as possible.
Repeat observations until reactive effects subside.
Take effects into account when interpreting data.
Interviews
(AKA: structured behavioral interviews) - Correct Answer 1st step to ID a list of Bxs, to be used later
in direct obs.
Interview 2 sources:
1. Individual: ask What and When not Why. ID indiv's 1° concerns. Give questionnaire or have them
record self monitoring data
2. Significant others: Ask any indiv and can also assess their participation in your plan.
Standardized tests - Correct Answer - Consistent administration is key: each time it's administered,
the same questions/tasks are presented and specified way and same scoring criteria/procedures
used
- Most don't work well with fxnl Bx Axs b/c results don't translate directly to target BX
(ETHICS: BCBAs may not administer tests)
