Although successful outcomes have been achieved across a variety of contexts and participant profiles, implementation of these procedures may be limited due to perceived risks associated with escalation in problem behavior, which is likely to occur when treatments rely on extinction that sometimes requires physical management. This presentation will begin with a summary of the underlying assumptions and methods unique to the practical functional assessment and skill-based treatment process. Then, an evaluation of an "enhanced choice" model for minimizing risks during treatment will be reviewed. In the evaluation, socially validated outcomes were achieved with all participants; dangerous problem behavior never occurred for three participants and rarely occurred for two participants. Findings will be connected to a recently administered survey regarding the nature, feasibility, and social acceptability of physical management procedures associated with behavior analytic service delivery. Implications of enhanced choice procedures for safe and dignifying behavior analytic practice will be reflected upon, with special consideration given to the commitments of trauma-informed care. Learning Objectives: By the end of this presentation, attendees should be able to: I really enjoyed this presentation and learned a lot! I see this topic as highly controversial, in a way, but this is a feature! (It makes the whole thing more interesting) If you are involved in unsafe, dangerous behavioral treatment, you have to pay attention to this approach, no doubt. Great cohesive presentation. Presenter explained studies and data well while still keeping audience attentive. Will definitely be keeping this study in mind for future clients that may benefit from it.
