Better Outcomes Demand Better Graphing
Richard M. Kubina Jr.4.80 out of 5(5)Applied and basic researchers in behavior analysis rely on visual analysis of graphic data, a practice rooted in the field’s inception, yet concerns about its reliability have arisen, particularly in single-case designs. Critics argue for supplementing visual analysis with statistical methods to enhance objectivity and confidence in results, aiming to strengthen analytical and decision-making capabilities in the field. This presentation from the 2018 Michigan Autism Conference showcases studies highlighting weaknesses in graphing and strategies to bolster analytical rigor.

Matter of Great Consequence: The Standard Celeration Chart
Richard M. Kubina Jr.4.75 out of 5(4)Recent investigations reveal a high error rate in the construction of linear graphs within fields like behavior analysis and special education, impacting critical aspects such as analysis and decision-making. The Standard Celeration Chart is presented as a significantly more effective alternative, promising to enhance the quality of data visualization, precision in metrics, and analytics for treatments, especially for individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). From the 2017 Michigan Autism Conference.

Improving the Lives of Students with Autism by NOT Focusing on their Disability
Morten Haugland5.00 out of 5(2)The Haugland Learning Center (HLC) employs the science of human behavior to enhance educational outcomes. This presentation from the 2017 Michigan Autism Conference emphasizes the importance of professional values and philosophy beyond standard treatment approaches, critiquing the reduction of ABA to mere diagnosis-based methods. It demonstrates how rejecting excuses linked to autism diagnoses can lead to significant improvements in both academic and social skills, supported by data from the implementation of the Morningside Model of Generative Instruction.

Beyond Instruction: Closing the Educational Gaps for Children with Autism
Morten Haugland, Kathy Fox, & Jason GuildThe ASPIRE program uses the Morningside Model of Generative Instruction to ensure that students with autism receive the best educational services possible. Combining the model with staff coaching and multi-level data analysis allows us to maximize potential for each student. This presentation from the 2018 Michigan Autism Conference focuses on the three main components of the model: instruction, practice, and application and detail how we supplement the model to ensure success with students with autism. Processes for analyzing data and coaching staff to ensure students continue to work toward meeting high educational and behavioral expectations are also detailed.

An Examination of Linear and Ratio Graphs
Richard M. Kubina Jr.4.67 out of 5(3)Line graphs have long been crucial in applied behavior analysis for visually representing treatment data and summarizing behavioral performance over time. However, issues such as low interrater reliability and the absence of consistent decision-making criteria have been noted. An alternative, the standard ratio graph, is explored in this presentation from the 2021 Michigan Autism Conference for its potential to address these criticisms by comparing its effectiveness against traditional linear graphs in an experiment.

Using Explicit Instruction and Frequency Building to a Performance Criterion to Teach Writing to College Students with Disabilities
Alyssa McElroyProficient writing skills are critical for academic, vocational, and social outcomes for individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). However, many individuals struggle to develop proficient writing repertoires. This study, presented at the 2023 Michigan Autism Conference, sought to teach eight autistic college students to write four types of persuasive sentences using a modified explicit instruction program and frequency building to a performance criterion sessions. Five of the eight participants met criteria for all four sentence types and demonstrated maintenance of skills during follow-up sessions.
