Part 2: Conduct a Preference Assessment
(BACB Task List 5 Area F-5)
Grading Procedures
1. Select a learner (may be the same learner as one of the previous assessments) and receive parent permission to conduct two preference assessments. This assessment may be conducted virtually if needed. If necessary, you may conduct "mock" assessments with a friend or family member, similar to the demonstration in the webinar. You may not provide hypothetical data; you must conduct actual assessments and submit obtained data from those assessments.
2. Conduct a Pairwise Preference Assessment (3 preferred items)
3. Conduct a Multiple-Stimulus with or without Replacement Preference Assessment (your choice) (with at least 3 preferred items).
4. Identify the learner's top 3 preferences based on the results.
5. Compare the results of the two procedures (if you conducted the two with a different learner or with different preferred items, and discuss the relative pros and cons of each procedurally. If you did use the same learner and the same preferred items, also compare the results).
