Ep51 Expanding the Behavioral and Technological Galaxy with Alan and Stewart of Attend|Behavior Atypical Behavior Analyst
-
- Kurser
Home dynamics are different than any other environment a person contacts. There are multiple competing contingencies, constantly fluctuating variables- laundry, meals, clean up, practice, therapy, appointments, medical issues, work, bills. Yet professionals often require parents to have the highest amount of fidelity regarding program implementation.
This is the point where the scientific and ever-growing, ever-expanding technological world collide and produce a something that supports the needs of caregivers and the clients while still building skills, maintaining rapport, and contining collaboration. In this LIVE chat, we meet with Alan and Stewart of Attend|Behavior to talk about meeting families where they’re at, building programs AND data collection that are accessible and usable, and improving the overall family dynamics.
Learning Objectives:
1. Discuss alternative ways to provide program prompts and feedback to parents and caregivers.
2. Discuss the pros and cons of using technology such as an app alongside programming.

- Timing of prompts and reinforcement is a vital piece of any behavior analytic programming. Too early, too late, too delayed, and the desired may not happen or it may not be met with the current reinforcing contingencies (following through with programs isn’t always naturally reinforcing to start with!). Technology can improve the delivery of prompts, check-ins, and reinforcement by giving more immediate and reliable stimuli to the caregiver instead of waiting until the next appointment to debrief and provide feedback.
- While technology has many benefits, there are still potential issues- not always reliable (sometimes notifications are turned off), it can be an expensive resources that not all clients have access to. To elaborate, not all clients have access to smart phones, reliable internet access, supportive data plans. Practitioners also shouldn’t become reliant on technology to interact with clients and caregivers; being present and listening is an important part of building rapport and thus buy-in for program recommendations.
