| How might data be collected for this target response? | Target: Frequency and accuracy of antecedent intervention implementation by residential counselors. Method: Direct observation during relevant client interactions, using a checklist or fidelity form that lists the specific antecedent interventions expected. Data Form: A task analysis or step-by-step fidelity checklist indicating whether each component of the antecedent intervention was implemented correctly. Additional: Self-monitoring logs or brief daily reports from counselors to complement observational data. |
|---|---|
| Identify an intervention, or set of interventions, based on the PDC-HS data. | Behavioral Skills Training (BST): Provide instruction, modeling, role-play, and feedback on how to implement the antecedent interventions properly. Use of Visual Prompts and Checklists: Create easy-to-access visual reminders (e.g., quick-reference cards or binder pages) outlining the steps of antecedent interventions. Attach checklists to counselors’ badges or workstations for quick review before client interactions. Rehearsal with Feedback: Have counselors practice implementing antecedent interventions in role-play scenarios, followed by immediate corrective feedback. Pre-session Reminders/Prompts: Provide prompts or brief verbal reminders before the start of client sessions to cue counselors to use the antecedent strategies. Performance Feedback: Supervisors deliver ongoing, systematic feedback based on observation data to reinforce correct implementation and address errors. |
