For this assignment, you will review a case study scenario and the corresponding context related to your role as a behavior analyst in practice. You will create a 13 slide PowerPoint presentation, which will include audio narration to provide clinical rationale for your decisions. You will use this case scenario to establish an individualized plan specifically for:

  • Initial Functional Assessment
  • Behavior Support Plan

Review the case study: In Case Studies in Applied Behavior Analysis for Students and Adults with Disabilities – Review Case Study Eight: Dez, p. 249-250.

You are a behavior analyst providing outpatient services through a center-based ABA therapy facility, which also provides in-home ABA services. The school team in Dez’s case study have initiated contact with you to provide consultative-level services on a short-term basis. They have indicated that they are seeking support with developing a behavior plan for Dez, and are also seeking support for the family in the home environment. The school team has provided you with confirmation that Dez’s mother has consented to this outreach effort and has indicated that she is open to the intervention support.

  • Antecedent-based interventions (1 slide)
  • Environmental stimuli you will add to Dez’s environment to support antecedent-based interventions (1 slide)
  • Consequence-based interventions (1 slide )
  • Analyzing intervention efficacy (1 slide )
  • Modification to intervention plans (1 slide)
  • Caregiver Goals for Dez’s mother (1 slide)
