Q

How do you assess if making changes to a target behavior is socially valid

A

prerequisite for a useful skill
will the behavior increase the client’s access to environments where other important behaviors can be learned?
Will changing the behavior predispose others to interact with the client?
If the target behavior is reduced or eliminated what behavior will replace it?

A

narrative recording to see if contingencies are in place out of the immediate stimuli preceding and following the behavior
