Unit 6 Assignment

Unit 6 Assignment Student’s Name Institution Course Code: Course Name Professor’s Name Submission Date Assessment of Skills Following the guidance of the BACB 5th Edition Task List, I assessed my competencies across all domains: A to H. This allowed me to understand my strengths and areas where further development was needed. For instance, in Domain A, the conceptual basis or the philosophical underpinnings of behavior analysis could explain radical behaviorism and its applications. However, I found barriers to conducting functional behavior assessments in Domain F, which is vital for intervention. Assessment results emphasize individual-plan targeted supervision and training to address competency gaps. The assessment results showed that such an exercise targeted a supervisory experience. Identifying my current strengths and areas of improvement would allow me to generate specific, measurable supervision goals in line with professional growth. Such a structured training format will ensure that this becomes meaningful and productive for the trainee and the organization through improved professional competence and effectiveness. Task List Goals I identified, through self-assessment, operationally defined supervision goals in one key skill area for each domain-A through H. These specific goals were selected to address areas where improvement is greatly needed and would give a systematic and quantifiable avenue toward acquiring skills. For example, under Domain A, I want to differentiate, with 90% accuracy, radical behaviorism from other philosophical perspectives across three supervised opportunities. In Domain B, I aim to define and give examples of positive and negative reinforcement accurately, as measured by evaluations on two occasions demonstrating 95% accuracy. Domain F will focus on conducting a functional behavior assessment, in which ABC data is collected with 90% accuracy within two weeks of training. Domain G will involve designing and implementing a token economy system in which reinforcement is delivered for 100% of the observed occurrences across five sessions. Each of these operational definitions involves specific, measurable criteria that ensure the supervision goals are also measurable and achievable. Creating these goals will ensure that supervision in operationally defined goals will support the literature and make training experiences significantly better and more focused, efficient, and effective. Skills Training Several training designs were created based on the principles of behavior skills training. The Domain F objective of conducting functional behavior assessments becomes the objective of a training plan with an initial instructional session on the purpose and process of functional analyses. Examples of data collection, along with how it informs inter...
