The current project examined the effectiveness of a functional analysis skills training package for practitioners with advanced degrees working within an applied setting. Skills included appropriately carrying out the functional analysis conditions as outlined by Iwata, Dorsey, Slifer, Bauman, and Richman (1982/1994), interpreting multielement functional analysis graphs using the methodology described by Hagopian et al. (1997), determining next steps when functional analysis data are undifferentiated, and selecting function-based interventions once functional analysis data are conclusive. The performance of three participants was examined within a multiple baseline design across participants. Although performance varied, baseline skill level was insufficient prior to intervention across participants and skill areas. Mastery was attained for all participants within four to eight training sessions per skill and the acquired skills were demonstrated effectively during generalization trials. Minimal retraining was required for some component skills at a 3-month follow up.
当前项目考察了针对在应用环境中工作的拥有高级学位的从业者的功能分析技能培训包的有效性。技能包括按照Iwata、Dorsey、Slifer、Bauman和Richman(1982/1994)所概述的那样恰当地实施功能分析条件,使用Hagopian等人(1997)所描述的方法解释多元素功能分析图表,在功能分析数据无差异时确定下一步行动,以及在功能分析数据确凿时选择基于功能的干预措施。在跨参与者的多基线设计中考察了三名参与者的表现。尽管表现有所不同,但在干预前,所有参与者在各技能领域的基线技能水平都不足。每位参与者在每项技能经过四至八次培训课程后都掌握了相关技能,并且在泛化试验中有效地展示了所习得的技能。在3个月的随访中,某些组成技能只需进行最少的再培训。
