Abstract

Behavior analysts have been working in and with public schools for decades. However, there is a paucity of research related to their work; specifically, their roles and responsibilities and needed support. We conducted a 37-item online survey of 98 nationally certified behavior analysts who work in public schools in a Southeastern state in the United States to gather information about what these professionals do and whether they feel supported to complete their work effectively. The roles and responsibilities of school-based behavior analysts vary but frequently include facilitating professional development opportunities including coaching, administration and supervision tasks, and supporting programming for both special and general education students with less emphasis on direct services to students. When asked about the types of students with whom they work, behavior analysts shared they work with a variety, including those with and without disabilities. Behavior analysts shared mixed results related to their feelings of support from school districts and their supervisors. We discuss implications for practitioners and future research.
校本行为分析学者的角色与责任研究
几十年来,行为分析师一直在公立学校工作,并与之合作。然而,与他们的工作相关的研究很少;具体来说,他们的角色和职责以及所需的支持。我们对在美国东南部一个州的公立学校工作的98名获得国家认证的行为分析师进行了一项37项的在线调查,以收集有关这些专业人士做什么以及他们是否感到得到了有效完成工作的支持的信息。校本行为分析师的角色和职责各不相同,但通常包括促进专业发展机会,包括指导、管理和监督任务,以及支持特殊教育和普通教育学生的计划,而不是直接为学生服务。当被问及与他们一起工作的学生的类型时,行为分析师表示,他们与各种各样的学生一起工作,包括有残疾和没有残疾的学生。行为分析师分享了不同的结果,这些结果与他们从学区和主管那里得到的支持有关。我们讨论了对从业者和未来研究的影响。
