A Positive Approach to Consulting in Schools Evidence-Based Practices for Promoting Effectiveness and Acceptance Dennis H. Reid, Ph.D., BCBA Carolyn W. Green, Ed.D.
Evidence-Based Characteristics of BST • Effective • Acceptable • Efficiency: a concern
Making BST Efficient: Pyramidal Training • Parsons, M.B., Rollyson, J., & Reid, D.H. (2013). Teaching practitioners to conduct BST: A pyramidal approach for training multiple human service staff. Behavior Analysis in Practice, 6, 4-16.
Pyramidal Staff Training • Process: use BST to train how to train using BST • When practical and not practical • Advantages: • Reduces clinician training time • Helps implementation supervision • Disadvantages: not for all supervisors
Making BST Efficient: Using Video Media • Macurik, K.M., O’Kane, N.P., Malanga, P., & Reid, D.H. (2008). Video training of support staff in intervention plans for challenging behavior: Comparison with live training. Behavioral Interventions, 23, 143-163.
Visual Media: Pros and Cons • Pros: • Can reduce overall training time • Cons: • Difficult to include performance-based training aspects • Inconsistent effectiveness in research
Visual Media: Recommendations • 1. When training large numbers of staff or staff on different work shifts • 2. Ensure resource access • 3. Must include on-the-job component (performance practice aspect)
