An investigation was conducted to demonstrate the application of a computerized assessment procedure for determining the preferences of persons with severe handicaps. A computer program was designed to interpret subjects' microswitch activations to produce three distinct types of events (visual, auditory, and tactile). A combination of a multiple baseline design across subjects with a multiple treatment design involving three separate conditions was used. The data obtained from the computerized assessment procedure revealed idiosyncratic preference patterns for the three subjects. Results of the investigation demonstrated that the preferences of severely handicapped individuals can be systematically assessed and analyzed.
开展了一项调查,以证明一种用于确定重度残疾人士偏好的计算机化评估程序的应用。设计了一个计算机程序来解释受试者的微动开关激活情况,以产生三种不同类型的事件(视觉、听觉和触觉)。采用了跨受试者的多基线设计与涉及三种不同条件的多重治疗设计相结合的方法。从计算机化评估程序中获得的数据揭示了三名受试者独特的偏好模式。调查结果表明,可以系统地评估和分析重度残疾个体的偏好。
