Title: Selecting the Right Measures and Using Technology to Collect Meaningful Data
Summary: Practice guidelines synthesize the published literature on a particular area of applied practice. Practice guidelines may also include specific recommendations and models to guide clinical decision-making. Practicing behavior analysts frequently assess and treat problem behavior as part of their ongoing job responsibilities. Effective measurement of problem behavior is critical to success in these activities because some measures of problem behavior provide more accurate and complete information about the behavior than others. This presentation summarizes five practice recommendations for using measurement systems for problem behavior and describes a clinical decision-making model for selecting measurement produces given certain features of the behavior and constraints of the therapeutic environment. Data from recent analyses of a large electronic data collection database will be presented.

Title: Ethical Supervision: Considerations for Supervisors and Supervisees
Summary: The field of behavior analysis is experiencing tremendous growth with over 50,000 RBTs and over 30,000 BCBAs. The BACB® recently published “A Summary of Ethics Violations and Code-Enforcement Activities: 2016-2017” wherein data were presented regarding the numbers of actual code violations indicating that actual violations related to Code 5.0 Behavior Analysts as Supervisors and Code 10.02 Timely Reporting to the BACB tied as the most common. Because our field relies on a supervised field experience model to assist in shaping the behavior analytic repertoires of future BCBAs, it is critical to ensure that supervisors implement high quality supervisory practices that comply with the Code requirements. This talk provides a brief review of some of the recent updates to BACB supervision requirements. This talk focuses on discussing some current supervisor practices in the field, some areas for improvement, as well as providing recommendations for strengthening those practices.[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”20px|20px|20px|20px|false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ border_radii=”on|2px|2px|2px|2px” border_width_all=”2px” border_color_all=”#a3a3a3″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]
