In 2014, the Behavior Analyst Certification Board (BACB®) initiated a program for credentialing behavior technicians. The new credential, Registered Behavior Technician™ (RBT®), is for providers of behavioral intervention to a wide range of individuals with mental health needs and developmental delays, including individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The RBT® would represent the entry-level position within the range of the BACB® credentials. Despite the increasing acceptance of this newest level of credential from the behavioral community, the authors of this paper have substantial concerns with the RBT® credential as it relates to the delivery of intervention to individuals diagnosed with ASD. The purpose of this paper is to detail these concerns and propose remedies that would ensure that individuals diagnosed with ASD receive effective behavioral intervention.
2014年，行为分析师认证委员会（BACB®）启动了一项行为技术员认证计划。新的认证“注册行为技术员™（RBT®）”面向为有心理健康需求和发育迟缓的各类人群（包括被诊断患有自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）的个体）提供行为干预的人员。RBT®将代表BACB®认证范围内的入门级职位。尽管行为学界对这一最新级别的认证认可度越来越高，但本文作者对RBT®认证在为被诊断患有ASD的个体提供干预方面存在重大担忧。本文旨在详细阐述这些担忧，并提出补救措施，以确保被诊断患有ASD的个体能接受有效的行为干预。
