Supervision and Management Fluency Misc

Dixon et al. "An Evaluation of the Impact of Supervision Intensity, Supervisor Qualifications, and Caseload on Outcomes in the Treatment of Autism Spectrum Disorder" Studied? - Answer- 1. Evaluated the relationship between mastery of learning objectives and elements of ABA supervision. 2. Measured treatment outcome in terms of mastered skills. Dixon et al. found? - Answer- 1. Within the bounds of typical supervision intensity (e.g., 2 h of supervision for every 10 h of treatment; BACB, 2014) results in a relatively small improvement in mastered learning objectives. 2. The relationship between mastery of learning objectives and supervisor credentials found that those with BCBA credentials produce 73.7 % greater mastery of learning objectives per hour than those without credentials. 3. A supervisor's years of experience overseeing ASD cases were shown to have a significant effect on the mastery of learning objectives. 4. Supervisor caseloads were not found to have a significant relationship to the number of mastered learning objectives. Dixon et al., found that a supervisor's years of experience overseeing ASD cases were shown to have a significant effect on the mastery of learning objectives by what percent? - Answer- For every year of experience that a supervisor had, the number of mastered learning objectives increased by 4 % . - 10 years results in 40% more mastery Once a sufficient level of supervision has been provided increasing supervision of a case does not improve the number of mastered learning objectives? True or False - Answer- True According to Dixon et al., ______ amount of supervision hours is provided for every 10 hours of treatment. 1-2 hours 0-1 hours 3-4 hours 2-3 hours - Answer- 1-2 Dixon et al., implications: - Answer- 1. The 1-2 h per every 10 h of treatment described in the 2012 version of the BACB guidelines may be more appropriate than the revised recommendations in 2014. 2. Given the relationship between treatment response and the supervisor credential, it seems evident that BACB standards for behavior analysis have produced a meaningful certification.
