Intervention

Steps of Task Analysis...

- A larger goal is broken down into small steps that can be followed to achieve it - To accomplish this breakdown, a clinician examines the input/output prerequisites needed for completing the goal

what are in the MOST natural end of the continuum?

-client centered -daily activities -facilitiative play -daily routine -vocational (work) activities

What are in the LEAST natural end of the continuum?

-clinician directed -drills -drill play -MODELING

What are in the hybrid part of the continuum?

-role playing -milieu teaching -organized activites -script therapy -conversational coaching -focused stimulation

What does a written goal NEED

1. "do" or learner performance 2. "criteria" (measure) 3. "conditions"

According to Fey, the four (4) main types of hybrid instruction are:

1. Focused stimulation 2. Milieu teaching 3. Script therapy 4. Conversational coaching

data collection has several functions within an intervention program:

1. It permits the clinician to track the client's progress from one session to another 2. It provides documentation of the efficacy of a particular intervention strategy or set of strategies 3. It maximizes clinician effectiveness

According to Fey (1986) three (3) factors affect naturalness:

1. The intervention activity itself 2. The physical context in which the activity takes place 3. The individuals with whom the client interacts during intervention

what are the 3 compoenents for long term goals?

1. the "do" statment identifies the action in which the client is to perform 2. the "condition" identifies the situation in which the target behavior is to be performed 3. the "criterion" specifies how well the target must be performed for the objectives to be achieved

What is task analysis?

Breaking down a complex behavior into its component parts.

The clinician does not attempt to elicit a predetermined set of responses from the client in what?

CC approach

____ Approaches - CC

Client Centered

CD=

Clinician Directed Approaches

According to______ three (3) factors affect naturalness: 1. The intervention activity itself 2. The physical context in which the activity takes place 3. The individuals with whom the client interacts during intervention

Fey (1986)

Interventions activities vary in their degree of naturalness. These variations have been described by WHO\ WHEN as falling along a continuum of naturalness

Fey (1986)

WHAT • Blended approaches represent a midpoint between the two extremes of naturalness. Hybrid approaches use intervention activities that are highly natural, but the clinician maintains control over the therapy environment to maximize learning and generalization. • Three (3) main characteristics of hybrid approaches are: 1. Only one or a small number of goals are targeted for 2. The clinician selects therapy activities and materials, intervention choosing those that promote the client's spontaneous use of the target behaviors 3. The clinician produces utterance behaviors that are contingent to the client's communication, but that also model and accentuate the target forms

Hybrid Approaches

reinforment, behavioral therories (ABC), and operant conditioning fall where on the natural continuum?

LEAST Natural

who and when discussed 3 basic purposes that intervention can serve?

Olswang and Bain 1991

A ____ forms Once a long and short term goals have been established and pre-tested,

Task Analysis

Data collection does what?

Tracks progress

how do we achieve the purpose of intervention?

changes according to : -nature of disorder -age -therapy history -family situation -clients learning style

In CD approaches, the____ controls all aspects of the intervention

clinician

Interventions activities vary in their degree of naturalness. These variations have been described by Fey (1986) as falling along a_______

continuum of naturalness

The _____represents the degree to which intervention contexts correspond to everyday communication situations and interactions.

continuum of naturalness

when planning communication intervention, it is a ____ that proceeds in a systematic progression

dynamic process

the provision of intervention services that adhere to the universal design for learning (UDL) is essential and is based on 3 main principles:

multiple means of representation multiple means of expression multiple means of engagment

what is often performed to ensure the retention and stability of the newly acquired behaviors

periodic monitoring

all intervention involves the provision of what?

scaffolding

Scaffolding us used to support...

the learning of new skills

What is the purpose of intervention?

to effect change in communicative behavior in order to max an individuals potential to communicate effectively

when is the intervention process completed?

when the client demonstrates mastery of targeted behaviors

Client Centered Approaches - CC

• Key steps in naturalistic approaches involve waiting for the client to initiate a behavior, interpreting the behavior as communicative, and responding to the behavior in a way that places it in a communicative context • The clinician does not attempt to elicit a predetermined set of responses from the client
