A Behavior Analyst’s Guide to Supervising Fieldwork: Naturalistic Instruction [Naturalistic instruction is a teaching strategy for which trials are conducted in the environment when the client is motivated to access the natural reinforcer. In this chapter, you will introduce your supervisees to the components of naturalistic instruction including context, motivation, and reinforcement. Specifically, you will highlight the importance of conducting teaching trials in the natural context, when the client is motivated, and delivering the natural reinforcement for engagement in the target behavior. During the group supervision meeting, you will describe strategies for contriving motivation including blocking access to preferred items or activities, placing preferred items or activities out of reach, limiting access to preferred items or activities, and interrupting behavior chains. In addition, your supervisees will practice developing goals that can be embedded into established routines. During the individual supervision meeting, you and your supervisee will develop a procedural fidelity checklist that outlines the naturalistic procedures to be used when targeting a new goal. During the final supervision meeting, you will instruct your supervisee to implement naturalistic instruction for the new goal with their client.] http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png

Abstract

[Naturalistic instruction is a teaching strategy for which trials are conducted in the environment when the client is motivated to access the natural reinforcer. In this chapter, you will introduce your supervisees to the components of naturalistic instruction including context, motivation, and reinforcement. Specifically, you will highlight the importance of conducting teaching trials in the natural context, when the client is motivated, and delivering the natural reinforcement for engagement in the target behavior. During the group supervision meeting, you will describe strategies for contriving motivation including blocking access to preferred items or activities, placing preferred items or activities out of reach, limiting access to preferred items or activities, and interrupting behavior chains. In addition, your supervisees will practice developing goals that can be embedded into established routines. During the individual supervision meeting, you and your supervisee will develop a procedural fidelity checklist that outlines the naturalistic procedures to be used when targeting a new goal. During the final supervision meeting, you will instruct your supervisee to implement naturalistic instruction for the new goal with their client.]
