Genetic and environmental influences on developmental trajectories of adolescent alcohol use
(Springer, 2019-01-31)
Adolescent alcohol use demonstrates distinct developmental trajectories with different times of onset, levels, and
rates of growth. Twin research on adolescent alcohol use has shown that genetic influences are consistent ...
Effects of an interactive Web training to support parents in reducing challenging behaviors in children with autism
(SAGE, 2020-04-04)
Many children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) engage in challenging behaviors, which may interfere with their daily functioning, development, and well-being. To address this issue, we conducted a four-week randomized ...
How many tiers do we need? Type I errors and power in multiple baseline designs
(Springer, 2020-07-29)
Design quality guidelines typically recommend that multiple baseline designs include
at least three demonstrations of effects. Despite its widespread adoption, this recommendation does not appear grounded in empirical ...
Research on technological interventions for young children with autism spectrum disorders : a scoping review
(Springer, 2020-06-29)
Researchers have widely reported using technological interventions to support young children with autism spectrum disorder. Given the abundance and diversity of research on the topic, the authors conducted a scoping review ...
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 ...
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 ...
Tutorial : applying machine learning in behavioral research
(Springer, 2020-11-10)
Machine-learning algorithms hold promise for revolutionizing how educators and clinicians make decisions. However, researchers in behavior analysis have been slow to adopt this methodology to further develop their understanding ...
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 ...
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, ...
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 ...
