Abstract

[Behavior analysts collect data on client behavior to make endless decisions within a behavior change program. In order to use data efficiently, they must be graphically displayed and systematically analyzed. In this chapter, you will introduce your supervisees to the line and bar graphs and the essential components of a graph. You will review the steps to visually analyzing data within and across conditions as well as discuss AB, ABAB, and multielement designs. During the group supervision meeting, your supervisee will practice identifying essential graph components in fictional graphed data and graph data sets, and then visually analyze their graphical displays. During the individual supervision meeting without a client, they will repeat this process of graphing and then visually analyzing the graph with raw data sets they collected during sessions with their client. Because graphing and visual analysis are tasks that take place without the client present, rather than conduct activities related to this topic during the supervision meeting with the client, you will observe your supervisee and provide performance feedback using the Supervision Observation: Procedural Fidelity Checklist. This form is designed to evaluate general supervisee behavior not related to a specific skill or intervention methodology.]
