Most of my research is centered on examining effective training strategies (e.g., performance feedback) that lead to improvements in education, training, and supervision of parents, teachers, and staff who implement behavior plans. Graduate and undergraduate students who work in my laboratory are likely to be involved in applied and in experimental research that involves direct observation and measurement of participants’ skills as they behave across of a simulated client (i.e., either a research assistant or a robot acting as the client). |

“The authors have created a truly valuable resource for those beginning their journey towards a credential as a behavior analyst. Supervision will be most effective when both the supervisor and the supervisee are well-prepared for the experience. This book is full of practical suggestions and activities that help a supervisee take full advantage of his or her opportunities.” -Linda A. LeBlanc, PhD, BCBA-D This long-awaited resource is the first to focus specifically on orienting and guiding trainees in the field of behavior analysis through the practicum and supervised experience. Clear and succinct, it provides comprehensive information on the competencies as required by the Fifth Edition the BACB® Task List. Going beyond the basic nuts and bolts of skill and knowledge requirements, the text prepares students for the day-to-day realities of the supervised practicum experience. It describes the process of locating a site, finding and working with supervisors and peers, and adhering to professional and ethical guidelines. Including seasoned advice on concluding the practicum, getting ready for the board exam, and developing a professional portfolio, this unique resource prepares behavior analyst trainees for employment and beyond.
Real-life examples and case scenarios help students gain an in-depth understanding of requisite competencies. Abundant performance monitoring checklists and sample forms—conveniently downloadable—further reinforce knowledge. This book is also a useful resource for practicing behavior analysts guiding trainees under their supervision. |
Supervisors, as leaders in the profession of behavior analysis, are responsible for provision of services as well as the competence of emerging behavior analysts. However, most supervisors have not received formal training to provide effective training or to motivate individuals under their care.
In this brief presentation, Dr. Kazemi discusses what supervisees report about caring supervisors and tips for providing such supervision and taking questions. |
