Reliability and validity of observation

• Reliability of observation : Complexity of target behavior and training observers
• Validity of observation : mechanics of rating, observer error, reactivity, ecological validity

Behavioral Assessment

• SORC Model ( Kanfer and Philips, 1970 )
• Stimulus ( S )
• Organism ( O )
• Response ( R )
• Consequence ( C )
• Functional analysis ( ABC Model ) ( Skinner, 1953 )
• Antecedent event ( A )
• Behavior ( B )
• Consequence (C )

Two broad categories of behavior

• Responders : are the antecedent – controlled behaviors which function in a reflexive manner : Somatic reflexes, Emotional reactions and other responsesof the smooth muscles, gland and heart , and sensations
• Operants : are consequence – controlled : Actions, Instrumental responses of the smooth muscles, gland and cognitions

Assessment task

• Identify : respondent, operant, consequence of operant, setting event
• Classify : Behavioral excesses, behavioral deficits, behavioral anomalies, behavioral assets
• Prophesy : Theoretical orientation
• Specify : recommendations : precise goals, method of interventions, therapeutic agents
• Evaluation : What changes are occurring in behavior treatment : processes evaluation, outcome evaluation, follow up evaluation

Methods of behavioral assessment

• Behavioral interview
• Direct observation
• Psycho – Physiological measures
• Behavioral inventories and checklist
• BDI, CBCL

Behavioral sampling

• Event sampling
• Duration sampling
• Time sampling
• Interval sampling
• Subject sampling
• Situation sampling
