The training and supervision of adults are often an important part of a behavior analyst's responsibilities when providing services to individuals with disabilities. Coaching with immediate performance feedback can be one of the most effective tools in a behavior analyst's tool kit when providing effective training and supervision, but the need to be in the same physical space as the adult being coached can make this evidence-based practice logistically challenging. Distance bug-in-ear (D-BIE) coaching, where the coach delivers immediate feedback to a coachee from a remote location through a wireless earpiece as the coachee works with a client, can surmount these difficulties and allow a behavior analyst to efficiently deliver in-the-moment coaching to adults in any number of remote locations. This article provides a practical "how-to" guide to the equipment and procedures of D-BIE coaching. It is intended to assist behavior analysts who may benefit from this coaching method but need support in getting started with this new technology.
在为残疾人士提供服务时,对成年人的培训和监督通常是行为分析师职责的重要组成部分。在提供有效的培训和监督时,即时绩效反馈指导可能是行为分析师工具包中最有效的工具之一,但与接受指导的成年人处于同一物理空间的需求可能会使这种基于证据的做法在后勤方面具有挑战性。远程入耳式指导(D-BIE),即当学员与客户合作时,教练通过无线耳机从远程位置向学员提供即时反馈,可以克服这些困难,并使行为分析师能够有效地向任何数量的远程地点的成年人提供即时指导。本文提供了一份关于D-BIE指导的设备和程序的实用“操作方法”指南。它旨在帮助可能从这种指导方法中受益但在开始使用这项新技术时需要支持的行为分析师。
