Évaluation fonctionnelle du comportement en psychoéducation : validité convergente de l’analyse fonctionnelle avec les analyses descriptive et indirecte
Functional behavior assessment in psychoeducation : convergent validity of functional analyses with descriptive and indirect assessments
(Université de Montréal. École de psychoéducation, 2022-11-08)L’évaluation fonctionnelle du comportement et la sélection d’une intervention fonctionnelle font partie des meilleures pratiques pour réduire les comportements problématiques. Toutefois, peu d’études ont examiné les habiletés des psychoéducateurs en ... -
A person-centered perspective on differential efficacy of early behavioral intervention in children with autism : a latent profile analysis
(Elsevier, 2022-07-16)Background: Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) present heterogeneous symptom manifestations and responses to intervention. Despite being well-established, early intensive behavioral intervention (EIBI) has produced inconsistent responding ... -
Tutorial : artificial neural networks to analyze single-case experimental designs
(American Psychological Association, 2022-07-07)Since the start of the 21st century, few advances have had as far-reaching impact in science as the widespread adoption of artificial neural networks in fields as diverse as fundamental physics, clinical medicine, and psychology. In research methods, ... -
Brief report : machine learning for estimating prognosis of children with autism receiving early behavioral intervention : a proof of concept
(Springer, 2022-06-28)Although early behavioral intervention is considered as empirically-supported for children with autism, estimating treatment prognosis is a challenge for practitioners. One potential solution is to use machine learning to guide the prediction of the ... -
Agreement between visual inspection and objective analysis methods : a replication and extension
(Wiley, 2022-04-27)Behavior analysts typically rely on visual inspection of single-case experimental designs to make treatment decisions. However, visual inspection is subjective, which has led to the development of supplemental objective methods such as the conservative ... -
Waiting for baseline stability in single-case designs : is it worth the time and effort?
(Springer, 2022-04-25)Researchers and practitioners often use single-case designs (SCDs), or n-of-1 trials, to develop and validate novel treatments. Standards and guidelines have been published to provide guidance as to how to implement SCDs, but many of their recommendations ... -
Municipal regulation of cannabis and public health in Canada : a comparison of Alberta, Ontario, and Québec
(Wiley, 2022-04-25)Canada legalized nonmedical cannabis in October 2018, but significant variations in municipal regulations exist. This study explored the variations that exist and pondered their potential public health consequences. A comparative analysis was completed ... -
Some characteristics and arguments in favor of a science of machine behavior analysis
(Springer, 2022-03-31)Researchers and practitioners recognize four domains of behavior analysis: radical behaviorism, the experimental analysis of behavior, applied behavior analysis, and the practice of behavior analysis. Given the omnipresence of technology in every sphere ... -
Typologies of Canadian young adults who drive after cannabis use : a two-step cluster analysis
(Wiley, 2022-01-31)Young adults that drive after cannabis use (DACU) may not share all the same characteristics. This study aimed to iden-tify typologies of Canadians who engage in DACU. About 910 cannabis users with a driver's license (17–35years old) who have ... -
Concurrent validity of open-ended functional assessment interviews with functional analysis
(Wiley, 2021-12-22)Open-Ended Functional Assessment Interviews have limited empirical support for their concurrent validity with functional analysis. To address this issue, we conducted a study wherein 176 independent behavior analysts relied on data collected using ... -
Changes in autistic symptoms and adaptive functioning of children receiving early behavioral intervention in a community setting : a latent growth curve analysis
(Springer, 2021-11-23)Despite showing effects in well-controlled studies, the extent to which early intensive behavioral intervention (EBI) produces positive changes in community-based settings remains uncertain. Thus, our study examined changes in autistic symptoms and ... -
Risk factors associated with driving after cannabis use among Canadian young adults
(SAGE, 2021-10-11)This study identifid the most prominent risk factors associated with driving after cannabis use (DACU). 1,126 Canadian drivers (17–35 years old) who have used cannabis in the past 12 months completed an online questionnaire about sociodemographic ... -
Exploring reasons motivating the use of restraint and seclusion by residential workers in residential treatment centers : a qualitative study of official reports
(Routledge, 2021-09-05)In situations where the immediate safety of children or others is at risk, residential workers are authorized to use specific measures intended as last resort, namely restraint and seclusion (R&S). This study sought to identify and detail the reasons ... -
Machine learning to support visual inspection of data : a clinical application
(SAGE, 2021-08-12)Practitioners in pediatric feeding programs often rely on single-case experimental designs and visual inspection to make treatment decisions (e.g., whether to change or keep a treatment in place). However, researchers have shown that this practice ... -
Perceptions of behavior analysis in France : accuracy and tone of posts in an Internet forum on autism
(Springer, 2021-07-22)Applied behavior analysis (ABA), which is often used as the basis for designing interventions for people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), is highly misrepresented and underutilized in many countries. One country where ABA remains particularly ... -
Machine learning to analyze single-case graphs : a comparison to visual inspection
(Wiley, 2021-07-15)Behavior analysts commonly use visual inspection to analyze single-case graphs, but studies on its reliability have produced mixed results. To examine this issue, we compared the Type I error rate and power of visual inspection with a novel approach—machine ... -
Academic, socioeconomic and interpersonal consequences of cannabis use : a narrative review
(Taylor and Francis, 2021-04-05)This article reviews the literature on the association between cannabis use (CU) and psychosocial functioning, operationalized here as academic achievement, economic prospects, social relationships and quality of life. So far, study results have been ... -
Program evaluation of a community organization offering supported employment services for adults with autism
(Elsevier, 2021-02-05)Background Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have an employment rate well below the general population. One potential solution to address this issue is the implementation of supported employment services. The purpose of our study was to ... -
