Further Evaluation of Teaching Behavior Technicians to Input Data and Graph Using GraphPad Prism

Further Evaluation of Teaching Behavior Technicians to Input Data and Graph Using GraphPad Prism We replicated and extended Mitteer, Greer, Fisher, and Cohrs (2018) by examining the effects of a video model on inputting data into GraphPad Prism, which is a necessary skill for graph construction. We used a concurrent multiple-probe-across-behavior design with 2 behavior technicians to assess data-input and graphing skills separately prior to and during access to relevant video models. We evaluated the generality of the training procedures by assessing both skills during data-input-plus-graphing sessions without access to the video models. The video models resulted in mastery of data-input and graphing skills when assessed individually. We observed training effects generalize to data-input-plus-graphing sessions once behavior technicians experienced all relevant video models. These results suggest that individuals should view both data-input and graphing video models prior to depicting single-case design data in Prism but that these skills can maintain at high levels of accuracy without continued access to the training materials. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Behavior Analysis: Research and Practice American Psychological Association

Abstract

We replicated and extended Mitteer, Greer, Fisher, and Cohrs (2018) by examining the effects of a video model on inputting data into GraphPad Prism, which is a necessary skill for graph construction. We used a concurrent multiple-probe-across-behavior design with 2 behavior technicians to assess data-input and graphing skills separately prior to and during access to relevant video models. We evaluated the generality of the training procedures by assessing both skills during data-input-plus-graphing sessions without access to the video models. The video models resulted in mastery of data-input and graphing skills when assessed individually. We observed training effects generalize to data-input-plus-graphing sessions once behavior technicians experienced all relevant video models. These results suggest that individuals should view both data-input and graphing video models prior to depicting single-case design data in Prism but that these skills can maintain at high levels of accuracy without continued access to the training materials.
