B-04 Withdrawal Design |
-synonym for ABAB design, also used to describe experiments with in which an effective treatment is sequentially or partially withdrawn to promote the maintenance of behavior changes |
|
|
B-04 Reversal Design |
-any experimental design in which the researcher attempts to verify the effect of the independent variable by "reversing" responding to a level obtained in a previous condition -encompasses experimental designs in which the IV is withdrawn -ex: experiment which baseline consists of the reinforcement of challenging behavior and treatment consists of differential reinforcement of an alternative/replacement bx |
|
|
B-05 Alternating Treatment Designs (multi element) |
-an experimental design in which two or more conditions are presented in rapidly alternating succession -ATD is used to compare interventions -M-ED is used to assess factors that may be maintaining challenging behaviors -requires at least one reversible behavior -Ex: Functional Analysis |
|
|
B-06 Changing Criterion Design |
-an experimental design in which an initial baseline phase is followed by a series of treatment phases consisting of successive and gradually changing criteria for reinforcement or punishment -experimental control is evidenced by the extent the level of responding changes to conform to each new criterion |
|
|
B-06 Changing Criterion Design and Guide |
-may be useful if you wish to evaluate instructional or therapy programs that require gradual, stepwise changes in behavior -ex: systematically increased homework completion, decreasing number of cigarettes smoked per day, or intervention program that incorporates DRO, DRL, or DRH |
|
|
B-07 Multiple Baseline Design |
-experimental design that begins with concurrent measurement of two or more bxs in a baseline condition, followed by the application of the treatment variable to one of the behaviors while baseline conditions remain in effect for the other behaviors -after maximum change has been noted in the first behavior, the treatment variable is applied in sequential fashion to each of the other behaviors in the design -experimental control is demonstrated if each behavior shows similar changes when and only when the treatment variable is introduced |
|
|
B-07 Multiple baseline design variations and designs |
-multiple baseline across behaviors design -multiple baseline across settings design -multiple baseline across subjects design |
|
|
B-08 Multiple Probe Design |
-a variation of the multiple baseline design that features intermittent measures ,or probes, during baseline -it is used to evaluate the effects of instruction on skill sequences in which it is unlikely that the subject can improve performance on later steps in the sequence before learning prior steps |
|
|
B-09 Use combinations of Design Elements |
-sometimes useful to combine experimental design elements to strengthen the demonstration of experimental control -Ex: combine multiple baseline with a reversal design |
