H07-H08 Make Data-Based Decisions About the Effectiveness of the Intervention and Need for Treatment Part 2 Flashcards
used when it is UNeTHical or dangerous to reverse condition or use a reversal design
Most Widely used design
it is Highly Flexiable
across behavior, setting and subjects
When using a multiple baseline design to evaluate the effects of a particular treatment, a prediction of the future level of responding if the intervention is not implemented is assessed by
Analyzing data on each behavior during the baseline phase.
When using a multiple baseline design to evaluate an intervention, practice effects are controlled for by
Varying the length of baseline phases.
When a decision has been made to terminate the services of a client who still needs them, a behavior analyst should
All the above:
Discuss the situation with the other interested parties, particularly the party who referred the client for services.
Continue to provide services as appropriate until another service provider takes over.
Take reasonable steps to facilitate the transfer of responsibility for the case to a new service provider.
To achieve the greatest experimental control when using a multiple baseline design to evaluate an intervention
All the above:
Select independent but functionally similar behaviors.
Vary baseline lengths and avoid intervening too soon.
To achieve the greatest experimental control when using a multiple baseline design to evaluate an intervention
All the above:
Select independent but functionally similar behaviors.
Select concurrent and plausibly related baseline conditions.
Vary baseline lengths and avoid intervening too soon.
When using a multiple baseline design to evaluate the effects of a particular treatment, verification of the prediction made in the initial baseline is assessed by comparing
Data on the target behavior under intervention to data on other behaviors not exposed to the intervention
Behavior analysts often… with a client in which of the following instances?
The client’s parent consistently refuses…
The preferred experimental design for severe SIB in which a reversal would be problematic is the
Alternating treatments design
may be unethical
A behavior analyst should consider terminating services with a client in which of the following instances?
All the above
Using an experimental reversal design to demonstrate the effects of treatment should be avoided with
Seriously dangerous or severe SIB
Behavior analysts may need… in which of the following instances?
The behavior analyst is having surgery and will be in recovery for two months.
The multiple baseline design is useful for evaluating behavior change strategies in applied situations because
Its format follows the normal progression of behavior change across multiple behaviors and settings.
It is useful for assessing the progress of generalization of a behavior change.
It does not require withdrawing an effective treatment to demonstrate experimental control.
When using a multiple baseline design to evaluate an intervention, a change in a behavior still in baseline similar to changes in behavior under intervention indicates that
Experimental control has not been achieved.
