Select one item from the BACB® 5th edition task list. Pinpoint a specific behavior or output/permanent product related to the task list item, operationally define it, and determine how you would evaluate a trainee’s performance on the skill, both initially and ongoing. Would you include a checklist, BARS, quiz, or self-assessment? Would you use any fundamental measures or sampling procedures? How will you make your trainees comfortable being assessed on this skill?
Additionally, please include LINKS or DOIs to any articles or books referenced outside of the assigned readings as part of your APA citation. (As it is required when using web-based references, links to an external site are provided.) Failing to do so will result in point deductions.
