Study Notes
Person-Centered Planning and IEP Teams
- Person-centered planning teams are not the same as IEP teams.
- Person-Centered Planning involves honoring personally valued outcomes, which can lead to the disappearance of some problem behaviors.
U.S. Political System and Education
- The U.S. political system does not guarantee citizens access to evidence-based education and treatment.
Data Collection in Behavioral Analysis
- Inter-response time data is essential for assessing the effectiveness of interventions to reduce repetitive behaviors.
- ABC data collection in functional behavior assessments classifies consequences into functional categories.
Behavior Analysis Principles
- Minimum acceptable interobserver agreement (IOA) in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is set at 80%.
- Total count and total duration IOAs are less precise than average count and average duration per occurrence measures.
- The basic principle of reinforcement follows a stimulus-response-consequence model.
Instructional Strategies
- Incidental teaching capitalizes on naturally occurring situations for skill acquisition.
- Natural Environment Teaching (NET) allows for contrived teaching situations, contradicting earlier beliefs that this should not occur.
Ethical Considerations
- RBTs may face ethical dilemmas on person-centered planning teams due to multiple relationships and competence boundaries.
Communication and Professionalism
- Face-to-face verbal communication is often the best approach for resolving conflicts with supervisors or coworkers.
- RBTs should strive to demonstrate dignity and respect in all communications.
Reinforcements and Behavior Maintenance
- Reinforcer effectiveness is influenced by consistency and schedule.
- Praise and rewards alone may not suffice to change ongoing behaviors, such as academic performance.
Graphing and Data Representation
- All data collected should be graphed for effective analysis.
- Important data should not be omitted from graphs, contrary to the belief that cropping is acceptable.
Measuring Behavior
- Latency refers to the time that elapses before a behavioral response is initiated.
- Duration refers to the length of time a behavior occurs.
Establishing Operations
- Establishing operations can trigger sensory processing issues or be linked to temporary emotional states, indicating behavioral changes.
Teaching and Learning Environments
- Teaching should not be confined to the same setting or time.
- Skill acquisition goals are derived from assessment results to tailor interventions effectively.
Problem Behavior Prevention
- Opportunities for choice-making and a consistent schedule have been shown to prevent problem behaviors in children.
- Individuals on person-centered planning teams may not always adhere strictly to their professional boundaries.
Special Cases in Behavior Analysis
- Some problem behaviors persist due to previous learning histories or insensitivity to consequences.
- RBTs must adhere closely to prescribed skill acquisition plans to ensure fidelity in interventions.
Visualization Techniques
- Bar charts in ABA can visualize specific data types and trends over time.
