Using In-Vivo Modeling and Feedback to Teach Classroom Staff to Implement a Complex Behavior Intervention Plan

摘要

Behavior intervention plans (BIPs), implemented with high treatment integrity, are effective in decreasing challenging behaviors in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). High treatment integrity requires staff training such as Behavioral Skills Training (BST). Modeling and feedback alone, however, have been shown to be briefer and as effective as BST. Due to limited resources educational settings may prefer briefer training models to train staff to implement BIPs. This study used only two of the BST components, in-vivo modeling and feedback, to train three classroom staff members to implement a complex BIP. All three staff acquired the skills rapidly.
