Topic: A Behavior Analytic Approach to Outcomes: Are We Making the Progress we Think we Are?
Description: According to the Council of Autism Service Providers (CASP) practice guidelines for healthcare funders and managers, one of the outlined core characteristics of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is that consistent and ongoing review of data is necessary to guide clinical decision-making. The two most predominant methods of progress monitoring include mastery measurement, which evaluates an individual's understanding and proficiency across specific skills, and general outcome measurement (i.e., curriculum-based measurement), which evaluates skill across domains or curriculums (Iris Center, n.d.), yet there is limited reported on outcomes related to assessment results other than a simple reporting of points gained. Recently, the quality of services within applied behavior analysis (ABA) has come under renewed scrutiny (Silbaugh & El Fattal, R, 2022; Sohn, 2020). This scrutiny is related to poor outcomes and may be related to infrequent or ignored program monitoring of learner outcomes and progress. As behavior analysts we need to ask ourselves (1) are we making progress, (2) how do I know, and (3) is it enough?
Snacks and Beverages will be available during the event.
