Module PLP-4046:
Supporting Generality of Behaviour Change

Supporting Generality of Behaviour Change 2022-23
PLP-4046
2022-23
Ysgol Gwyddorau Addysgol
Modiwl - Semester 1 a 2
20 credits
Module Organiser: Marguerite Hoerger
Overview

The content form this module is taken from the BCBA Task List (5th Edition). Section 1: Applications, H. Selecting and Managing Interventions and I. Personal Supervision and Management.

  1. Monitor client progress and treatment integrity.
  2. Make data-based decisions about the effectiveness of the intervention and the need for treatment revision.
  3. Make data-based decisions about the need for ongoing services.
  4. Collaborate with others who support and/or provide services to clients. State the reasons for using behavior-analytic supervision and the potential risks of ineffective supervision (e.g., poor client outcomes, poor supervisee performance).
  5. Establish clear performance expectations for the supervisor and supervisee.
  6. Select supervision goals based on an assessment of the supervisee’s skills.
  7. Train personnel to competently perform assessment and intervention procedures.
  8. Use performance monitoring, feedback, and reinforcement systems.
  9. Use function-based strategies to improve personnel performance.
  10. Evaluate the effects of supervision (e.g., on client outcomes, on supervisee repertoires).
  11. When a target behavior is to be decreased, select an acceptable alternative behavior to be established or increased.
  12. Use a functional assessment approach (e.g., performance diagnostics) to identify variables affecting personnel performance.

Assessment Strategy

-threshold -50%> - Adequate demonstration of behaviour analytic skills but little in depth analyses. - Coherent arguments, but limited synthesis or original interpretation. - Weak or poor-fit experimental design, data collection, and data analysis. - Adequate but superficial review of the relevant literature. - Appropriate integration of project with the relevant literature. - Appropriate interpretation of results with the relevant literature.

-good -60%> - Reasonably comprehensive application of behaviour analytic concepts to clinical practice. - Some basic understanding of the potential applications of the project. - Some original interpretation. - Some evidence of extensive and thorough study - The communication style will be acceptable with likely some fairly minor typographical or other errors. - There will be good referencing of primary source material where appropriate. - Adequate knowledge of some key concepts. - Weaknesses in understanding of theoretical issues with multiple/major factual errors. - Limited evidence of critical analysis and evaluation of theory and research. - Arguments are weak or underdeveloped, with little synthesis or original interpretation. - Weaknesses in experimental design, data collection, or data analysis. - Incomplete or superficial review of the relevant literature. • Weak integration and interpretation of results with the relevant literature.

-excellent -70%> - Comprehensive and accurate application of behavioural concepts to applied problems. - Depth of insight into theoretical and applied issues. - Evidence of thorough understanding of and/or original insights as to the potential applications of the project. - Coherent arguments, with accurate and succinct synthesis and original interpretation. - Clear structure and no irrelevant material. - Strong experimental design, data collection, and data analysis. - Thorough yet concise review of the relevant the literature. - Exceptional integration and interpretation of project and results with the relevant literature. - The communication style will be precise and concise with very few typographical or other errors. - There will be comprehensive referencing of primary source material where appropriate.

Learning Outcomes

  • Students will consider how to use data to support treatment decisions and evaluate treatment integrity.

  • Students will critically analyse peer reviewed literature to guide their decision making about choosing and evaluating behaviour change interventions.

  • Students will explain how the techniques used in applied behaviour analysis can be applied to the supervision of trainee behaviour analysts.
