| How might data be collected for this target response? | Since the PDC-HS assessment identified the domain of task clarification and prompting, data collection should focus on: 1. Baseline Data on Implementation of Antecedent Interventions Direct observations to record how often staff correctly implement antecedent interventions. Use of a fidelity checklist to track which interventions are implemented and which are skipped. Logging behavior incidents to determine correlations with missed antecedent strategies. 2. Data on Staff Understanding and Perception Surveys or interviews to identify barriers (e.g., Is there a lack of clarity about interventions? Are reminders missing? Do they doubt effectiveness?). Error pattern analysis to adjust training or support materials. 3. Data on Adherence to Prompts and Reminders Track how often staff use or reference support materials (e.g., visual guides, protocols). Measure how frequently reminders (e.g., prompt cards, alarms) are used correctly by staff. |

| Identify an intervention, or set of interventions, based on the PDC-HS data. | Since the primary issue is lack of task clarity and insufficient reminders, the following interventions can improve implementation: 1. Task Clarification (Least Restrictive) Create visual checklists accessible in key locations within the group home (e.g., staff common areas). Redesign guides or manuals in an easy-to-read format with clear steps and examples. Place posters or icons in key areas to remind staff to apply antecedent strategies. Reinforce staff when they correctly apply interventions (e.g., verbal praise, incentives, recognition in team meetings). Conduct live observations and provide on-the-spot corrections if an antecedent intervention is not applied correctly. Hold brief check-in meetings to review data and reinforce the importance of antecedent strategies. |
