Quality Control for Behavior Analysts helps practitioners apply concepts of quality planning, control, and improvement to implement high-quality behavioral interventions that maximize care value through superior clinical outcomes.

Unlock the secrets of delivering high-quality behavioral interventions with this indispensable handbook designed for the Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA®). Starting with an introductory overview and concise history of quality, this book demystifies key concepts like quality assurance, planning, control, and improvement for the practicing BCBA and other stakeholders in the applied behavior analysis (ABA) autism service industry. Discover how behavior analysts can apply these concepts to effectively manage the quality of their behavioral interventions through the frequent routine assessment of procedural fidelity and interobserver agreement during ABA therapy. With its practical guidance and step-by-step approach, this book empowers BCBAs to effectively control the quality of their interventions in the evidence-based practice of ABA in ways that can dramatically improve care value and the quality of life for people with autism. This guide is a vital resource for any BCBA committed to providing high-quality ABA therapy and making a difference in the lives of individuals with autism.
