First, 23 out of 31 colleges (74.2%) have both behavioral analysis principles and clinical practice courses in the department (major) for training teachers in special schools nationwide. Second, 49 subjects related to behavioral analysis principles were opened in the National Special School Teacher Training Department (major), and mainly consisted of 3 credits for elective major, with subject names such as ‘Behavioral modification’, ‘Positive Behavior Support’, and ‘Special child behavior modification’. Third, 123 subjects related to clinical practice were opened in the department (major) for training teachers in special schools nationwide, and mainly consisted of 3 or 2 or less credits for elective major and teaching profession, with subject names such as ‘Educational volunteer activities’, ‘School field practice’, ‘Educational volunteer activities’, and ‘Special education field practice’.

She tacted over 400 objects and pictures, placed number cards in a right order. She worked on early reading skills and number skills. 3 types of stimulus were used for reading responses and number concept responses during MEI and pre- and post-probes: picture cards, corresponding written words, words read vocally for reading and number cards, picture cards with an amount of a number shown and spoken ordinal numbers for number concepts. A multiple probe design was used in this study. First, direct instruction on some of possible stimulus-response relations within the stimulus equivalence relations were delivered in order to establish reinforcement history within that relations. Then, probe for untaught stimulus-response within the same stimulus equivalence relations were conducted. The participant showed low level of correct derived responses with the equivalence relations. A MEI was implemented where the participant learned to respond within the equivalence relations as a type of relational frame. The Participant showed target derived responses within the stimulus equivalence relations during the Post-MEI probe and generalized the derived responding to a novel set of stimuli.\u0000","PeriodicalId":132513,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Behavior Analysis and Support","volume":"124 5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121096258","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To this end, the experimental group was provided with universal intervention through consulting after teacher training, and the comparison group was provided with teacher-led intervention after only teacher training. As a result of the study, the universal intervention implementation fidelity of teachers in the experimental group, who was initially involved in consulting, was higher than in the comparison group. However, as consulting was provided to the comparison group after that, it was found that the average of the two groups became the same at the end of the intervention. At the beginning of the intervention, the experimental group showed a steeper increase in the slope in expected behavior than the comparison group, and this effect remained even after the intervention was terminated and withdrawn. These results suggest the significant effect of universal intervention based on the consulting model and the importance of early intervention in the teacher's positive behavior support performance.\u0000","PeriodicalId":132513,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Behavior Analysis and Support","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125668196","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
