In this module, the principle we focused on was the BACB task list F-5, which focuses on
conducting preference assessments (BACB, 2017). According to the webinar, preference
assessments are a way to find out what the learners like and what they are motivated to work for
(Boutot, 2019). There are three different types of preference assessments: Paired
Stimulus/Pairwise/Forced Choice, Multiple Stimulus with Replacement, and Multiple Stimulus
without Replacement. Multiple-stimulus preference assessments are faster to implement than
paired stimulus assessments. However, no matter how long they take, they are all good for
identifying and creating a rank or hierarchy of preferred items. Knowing which items are highly
preferred over other less preferred items is essential.
This task list also aligns with the Professional and Ethical Compliance Code 2.14
Selecting, Designing, and Implementing Behavior-Change Interventions, which states that one of
the critical points behavior analysts need to have in mind is prioritizing positive reinforcement
procedures that meet the needs of the clients and that are designed to have a behavioral change.
With this in mind, behavior analysts prioritize reinforcing, and the preference assessments allow
us to identify the most reinforcing items/activities for our clients.
According to Mayer, satiation is when, after many repetitions of the same
response/reinforcer, the client is more likely to be less driven to complete or finish a task, and
responses will decrease. (2014). With this consideration, just like us, when we have something
for too long or repeatedly, we get tired of it and want an alternative. The preference assessment
helps with that. For instance, if a child is getting satiated from playing or interacting with a
preferred item, we could take a look back at the rank and see what the other preferred
items/activities there were and have the client work for those other stimuli. This will increase the
response rate as it is different, and they will be motivated to change the environment.
