Abstract:
Clinicians report primarily using functional behavioral assessment (FBA) methods that do not include functional analyses. However, studies examining the correspondence between functional analyses and other types of FBAs have produced inconsistent results. In addition, although functional analyses are considered the gold standard, their contribution toward successful treatment compared with other FBA methods remains unclear. This comparative effectiveness study, conducted with 57 young children with autism spectrum disorder, evaluated the results of FBAs that did (n = 26) and did not (n = 31) include a functional analysis. Results of FBAs with and without functional analyses showed modest correspondence. All participants who completed functional communication training achieved successful outcomes regardless of the type of FBA conducted.
摘要:
临床医生报告主要使用功能行为评估(FBA)方法,不包括功能分析。然而,研究功能分析与其他类型的FBA之间的对应关系的研究产生了不一致的结果。此外,尽管功能分析被认为是黄金标准,与其他FBA方法相比,它们对成功治疗的贡献尚不清楚.这项比较有效性研究,对57名患有自闭症谱系障碍的幼儿进行了研究,评估了FBA的结果(n=26)和没有(n=31)包括功能分析。有和没有功能分析的FBA结果显示适度的对应关系。无论进行的FBA类型如何,完成功能沟通培训的所有参与者都取得了成功的结果。
