Component evaluation of a computer based format for teaching discrete trial and backward chaining
Abstract
The effectiveness of a multi-component computer based training package that consisted of competency based instructions, video modeling, and two forms of feedback was evaluated in terms of treatment integrity of two procedures across four staff. Treatment integrity in completing critical steps of discrete-trial and backward chaining procedures were measured using a multiple baseline design across participants, counterbalanced for procedures. All four participants reached 100% treatment integrity on at least one skill in a role play setting. Maintenance probes showed skills maintained at the same levels 6 weeks following training.

The types of DTT programs taught differed both within and across studies, and the three most commonly taught DTT programs were matching, auditory-visual conditional discrimination, and imitation.
“The types of DTT programs taught differed both within and across studies.The three most commonly taught DTT programs were matching (e.g., match to sample; Nosik & Williams, 2011), auditory-visual conditional discrimination (e.g., pointing to named objects; Thomson et al., 2012), and imitation (e.g., gross motor imitation; Nosik et al., 2013).”

Studies have supplemented video models with interactive media and audio components, and some studies embedded quiz questions within online training modules.
“Studies have also supplemented video models with interactive media and audio components (e.g., embedded clickable text and exercises; Serna et al., 2016).Finally, some studies also embedded quiz questions within the online training modules (e.g., Nosik & Williams, 2011).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
