How might data be collected for this target response?	Data Collection for the Target Response The target response is staff implementation of antecedent interventions. Data collection should focus on procedural fidelity. Appropriate data collection methods include: Direct observation of residential counselors during routine activities. Use of an antecedent-intervention fidelity checklist that lists required steps (e.g., visual schedules provided, choices offered, transitions signaled in advance). Record: Percentage of antecedent strategies implemented correctly Frequency of missed antecedent supports Collect data across multiple shifts and settings to evaluate consistency of implementation.
Identify an intervention, or set of interventions, based on the PDC-HS data.	Intervention Based on PDC-HS Data Because the PDC-HS identified the Task Clarification and Prompting domain, the intervention should focus on making expectations clearer and providing supports that cue correct performance. Appropriate interventions include: Task clarification, such as: Clear written procedures for antecedent interventions Step-by-step checklists Visual job aids posted in relevant areas Prompts and reminders, including: Visual prompts (signs, cue cards) Electronic reminders or alarms Shift-start reminders Environmental arrangement, ensuring antecedent materials are readily available Brief performance feedback to confirm correct implementation These interventions reduce ambiguity and increase the likelihood that staff will implement antecedent interventions consistently without relying on punitive or consequence-based strategies.

Intervention Based on PDC-HS Data

Because the PDC-HS identified the Task Clarification and Prompting domain, the intervention should focus on making expectations clearer and providing supports that cue correct performance.

Appropriate interventions include:

Task clarification, such as:

Clear written procedures for antecedent interventions

Step-by-step checklists

Visual job aids posted in relevant areas

Prompts and reminders, including:

Visual prompts (signs, cue cards)

Electronic reminders or alarms

Shift-start reminders

Environmental arrangement, ensuring antecedent materials are readily available

Brief performance feedback to confirm correct implementation

These interventions reduce ambiguity and increase the likelihood that staff will implement antecedent interventions consistently without relying on punitive or consequence-based strategies.
