Detecting and Troubleshooting Treatment Failures: A Crucial Component of Evidence-Based Practice of ABA
$20.00
A presentation by Dr. Wayne Fuqua delivered at the 2017 Michigan Autism Conference
Description
Evidence-based practice (EBP) is a multi-component decision making process in which practitioners select, refine and deliver clinical services based on a) the best available scientific evidence, b) unique client and contextual features, c) training and competence of the practitioner, d) ongoing clinical progress monitoring and decision making and e) early detection and troubleshooting of treatment “failures.” Developed initially in medicine, EBP has been extended to the delivery of applied behavior analysis (ABA) services and is considered an essential feature of ethical and high quality ABA service delivery. This presentation will emphasize clinical progress monitoring as a tool for detecting treatment failures and describe a checklist for trouble shooting treatment failures.

I love that I now have somewhat of a path when I need to think about where I went wrong in treatment outcomes.
Great presentation!
Very clear, level-headed and forward thinking re: considering specific conditions under which BCBA practice and how to adjust accordingly. Glad to see ABA is moving in this direction.
Informative and engaging. A little rushed in parts.
Great presentation.
