Supervision is paramount within applied behavior analysis. This is particularly true in the case of Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and trainees (i.e., those accruing hours and experience to become BCBAs). Given the importance of supervision in shaping future BCBAs (and subsequently the field of applied behavior analysis), researchers have emphasized supervision practices as they relate to BCBAs and trainees. However, what type of work is occurring in this area, such as empirical intervention studies or provision of supervisory recommendations through discussion-style articles, needs to be clarified. Therefore, we conducted the first and most comprehensive systematic review of supervision research related to BCBAs and trainees. Results indicated that most of the articles and work pertaining to BCBA supervision are discussion-style articles, with several survey studies and few empirical intervention studies. We discuss implications and areas for future supervision research.

在应用行为分析中,监督至关重要。对于行为分析认证委员会认证行为分析师(BCBA)和实习生(即那些积累时长和经验以成为BCBA的人)而言尤其如此。鉴于监督对于塑造未来的BCBA(以及随后的应用行为分析领域)的重要性,研究人员强调了与BCBA和实习生相关的监督实践。然而,该领域正在开展何种类型的工作,例如实证干预研究或通过讨论式文章提供监督建议,需要予以明确。因此,我们对与BCBA和实习生相关的监督研究进行了首次也是最全面的系统综述。结果表明,与BCBA监督相关的大多数文章和工作都是讨论式文章,有几项调查研究,实证干预研究很少。我们讨论了未来监督研究的意义和领域。
