How might data be collected for this target response?Data can be collected by using frequency recording to track how often residential counselors implement antecedent interventions during stressful situations. Direct observation can be used to document whether the procedures are followed correctly and consistently. A checklist or data sheet can be created for counselors to self-report each time they implement the interventions, noting any deviations. This data can then be analyzed to identify patterns and inform further training or adjustments.
Identify an intervention, or set of interventions, based on the PDC-HS data.

Based on the PDC-HS data indicating the task clarification and prompting domain, the behavior analyst could implement clear, written guidelines outlining the specific antecedent interventions and when they should be applied. Role-playing or modeling the correct implementation of these procedures could help counselors practice and understand the expectations. Finally, regular feedback and coaching can be provided to ensure consistent application of the interventions, with follow-up observations to monitor progress.
