What is the best method for evaluating a PBS system in ABA practice? A. Comparing rates of staff termination before and after the PBS system was implemented
B. Comparing baseline rates of staff performance of expectations with rates after implementation
C. Comparing parent satisfaction rates before and after implementation of the system
D. Asking staff members how they feel about the expectation
The best method for evaluating a PBS (Positive Behavioral Support) system in ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) practice is:
B. Comparing baseline rates of staff performance of expectations with rates after implementation.
Explanation: This method directly measures the effectiveness of the PBS system by looking at actual changes in staff performance related to the expectations set by the system. It provides concrete data on whether the implementation has led to improvements, allowing for a clear assessment of the PBS system’s impact. This objective approach is crucial for evaluating the success of behavior support interventions.
