J-I Stay In Control Intervention

A type of reinforcement used was verbal and visual reinforcement. This is used as a behavior management strategy and positive reinforcement. When the clinician is done with all the activities he will receive a sticker for the client’s hard work for approximating the /k/ sound. The goal of this reinforcement is giving stickers to the client to make the correct production of the /k/ sound happen again and decrease the amount of visual prompts given. This reinforcement was successful because the client new goal is producing the /k/ sound at the independent level. The client also understands that when he makes the correct /k/ sound production he will receives a sticker for his sticker chart at the end of therapy.

1.5 - Explain why the least restrictive interventions should always be used when dealing with incidents of challenging behavior?

It is applied based on the need of the child. In the initial stage, which is engagement stage, the objective is to make them feel motivated and offer a better way of thinking. The next step involves behavioral change which is achieved by actively involving them to do things that they enjoy. By so doing, the therapist will have enabled the client to develop an alternative way of thinking making them feel better. At the end of the sessions the cognitive interventions facilitated by therapist will have helped the client (child) on ways to attend to information, identify thinking errors and help them to consider other alternatives in their thinking process hence develop a more unbiased thinking.

Verbal prompts, redirection to remain focused on a given task, minimize outdoor play, reduced iPad games and parent meeting. The results of interventions are diverse. Adriel would respond to previous intervention such as less outdoor play and parent meeting by behaving in class and follow directions for outdoor play for the first two days of the week and then the behavior occurs again. Verbal prompting often works for the first 2 minutes and then the behavior occurs again. The support and one-to-one attention given from the staff during transitions decreased the incidents of noncompliance, pushing and yelling. The staff will model, role play, practice and discuss all these intervention strategies to support Adriel. He will be given attention when he shows replacement behaviors.

Interventions aren't about confronting unsafe and inappropriate behavior, they are about giving the loved one a carefully constructed treatment plan. Every plan should be customized according to the love one's individual needs and situation. Intervention plans typically

When evaluating a client you are wondering and determining the type of treatment or intervention you would like to introduce. As each client is different, what works for client A may not be effective with client B. In determining the type of intervention there should be a certain level of research along with the gained professional and educational knowledge obtained. While researching treatments there are bound to be a multitude of fad treatments. It is important to research and steer away from alternate treatments also known as AltTs. These treatments are those that attempt to mimic ABA interventions but are not scientifically found. There has been little or no research provided, they have no scientific data, or they may be unsupported. Very few if any have cohesive research studies on entire treatment packages. Using any of these treatments would be deemed unethical. That is why research is key. A lot of AltTs disguise themselves as ABA; when in fact ABA is a science and science is “the intellectual and practical activity encompassing the systematic study of the structure and behavior of the physical and natural world through observation and experiment.” ABA seeks to understand and alter behaviors by observation, study, and proven scientific techniques. Using such treatments could, potentially, do more harm than good. We must remember to respect our practice and bestow our best interest and maintain its

Intervention Central is a free online resource for teachers and school districts to use for the implementation of intervention in or outside of the classroom while following the Common Core State Standards. Jim Wright, a psychologist and school administrator out of New York, created Intervention Central in hopes that the website would help offer high quality RTI in even the lowest budgeted schools. The website offers a wide variety of tools for teachers to use for academic and behavioral interventions as well as assessments and informative articles. Intervention Central also offers training videos and webinars on many different topics. The site breaks the intervention process activities down by subject and subject areas.

This final phase also enables people to solidify the gains they have made and move forward with their lives in healthier and more fulfilling ways. The clinician and client determine when the client is ready to complete treatment and agree on follow-up procedures to make sure clients stay focused and continue positive growth. I feel that this therapy could be used on anyone, from a child experiencing issues to an adult with difficulties in their life. A child could be experiencing a horrible ordeal with a step-parent, a rocky relationship with the child’s parents arguing or fighting all the time, or even a child watching their parents go through a divorce. All of these examples could stay with a child up until adulthood, and the clinician would have to dig deep in the past to see where the issues stemmed from. I like this therapy a lot because I feel that people do have some underlying issues that they are battling with from growing up or in the past that are causing them to feel the way they are today.

Therapeutic sessions assist in enhancing the member’s individual’s thoughts as well as those they are building relationships with. The support that they have from family, friends, significant others and the community is essential in their well-being as interactions with others are crucial for development of a sense of self (Meyer, 2003).

Interventions can also help this individual not only better understand there situation but also help the help. The intervention techniques I will be conducting Is this involves a series of one-on-one therapy sessions to help patients to establish and understand their thoughts, feelings and actions, and how they affect their symptoms. It also encourages patients to reconsider their lifestyle and monitor their thoughts and action to help reduce the recurrence of symptoms.

The kind of intervention needed for Jayson can be either of two approaches; through curriculum differentiation/adaptations while in his general education classroom and clinical teaching on an individual level. Curriculum differentiation/adaptations is a specific intervention which sees the classroom teacher making modifications to the quantity, time, difficulty level among other types of adaptations while providing the necessary support needed for him to develop the confidence and the specific skills needed to excel

Nice post. DBT seems like a good intervention. I learned about DBT last week. At my job, one of the clinicians recently crearted a DBT grroup last week. Suprisingly, there are already many clients who joined the group.

Behavior analysts should describe these in detail to the clients, as their cooperation is important for the success of the program. If a behavior analyst is working with an in-home client, she should describe to the client and caregivers the importance of delivering reinforcers consistently and appropriately. She would also have to review safety considerations and stress accurate recording of data by the caregivers. The behavior analyst may be able to better control the environment of an in-home client compared to the environment of a client in a public school. When discussing control of the environment with those involved with a client in a public school, the behavior analyst will need to have the cooperation of everyone involved with the child’s treatment (e.g. teachers, teacher aids, counselors). It may be more difficult for the behavior analyst to determine effective reinforcers of control those reinforcers in a public-school setting. It may also be challenging to obtain resources for the treatment program in such a
