Schmidt, Ellyn M.; Rothenberg, W. Andrew; Davidson, Bridget C.; Barnett, Miya; Jent, Jason; Cadenas, Heleny; Fernandez, Corina; Davis, Eileen – Journal of Behavioral Education, 2023
Measuring classroom behavior among young children is important to guide assessment and intervention decisions, yet there is limited literature on appropriate direct observation tools for this purpose. This article describes the psychometric properties of the Behavior Assessment System for Children, Student Observation System (BASC-3 SOS) with 135…

The Utility of the R-ABC in Assessing Risk for Autism Compared with the M-CHAT: An Exploratory Study
Sidni A. Justus; Jenny L. Singleton; Agata Rozga – Focus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities, 2024
Over the past 20+ years, researchers have worked toward identifying early behavioral predictors of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and developing observation-based screeners to supplement existing parent-report methods. This study is a follow-up, 3 to 8 years later, with parents/caregivers of 57 children previously enrolled in a U.S.…

Fallon, Lindsay M.; Cathcart, Sadie C.; Feinberg, Adam B. – Contemporary School Psychology, 2019
Children experiencing behavioral challenges often receive interventions and supports across a variety of settings (e.g., home, school). Treatment fidelity data are critical to intervention decision-making, yet there has been more research related to assessing treatment fidelity in school settings than in home environments. Understanding the extent…

Pijl, Mirjam K. J.; Rommelse, Nanda N. J.; Hendriks, Monica; De Korte, Manon W. P.; Buitelaar, Jan K.; Oosterling, Iris J. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2018
The field of early autism research is in dire need of outcome measures that adequately reflect subtle changes in core autistic behaviors. This article compares the ability of a newly developed measure, the Brief Observation of Social Communication Change (BOSCC), and the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) to detect changes in core…

Berkhout, Louise; Hoekman, Joop; Goorhuis-Brouwer, Sieneke M. – Early Child Development and Care, 2012
The objective of this study was to develop an instrument to observe the play behaviour of a whole group of children from four to six years of age in a classroom setting on the basis of video recording. The instrument was developed in collaboration with experienced teachers and experts on play. Categories of play were derived from the literature…

Shanley, Jenelle R.; Niec, Larissa N. – Child & Family Behavior Therapy, 2011
This study evaluated the inclusion of uncoded segments in the Dyadic Parent-Child Interaction Coding System, an analogue observation of parent-child interactions. The relationships between warm-up and coded segments were assessed, as well as the segments' associations with parent ratings of parent and child behaviors. Sixty-nine non-referred…

Tyler-Merrick, Gaye; Church, John – Emotional & Behavioural Difficulties, 2013
Early intervention for children with behavioural difficulties can be effective in terms of outcomes for both the children and their families. Early intervention can save a child from long-term outcomes such as school failure, peer rejection and later offending. However, in terms of accurate assessment of young children's behavioural difficulties,…

Pellegrini, Anthony D. – Educational Researcher, 2011
The processes by which children are classified as aggressive have important educational and research implications. For example, aggression in childhood reliably predicts dropping out of school and incarceration. The author argues that the sex-role stereotypicality of aggression produces bias in both observers and raters of student behavior. The…

Hupp, Stephen D. A.; Reitman, David; Everett, Gregory E.; Allen, Keith D.; Kelley, Mary Lou – Child & Family Behavior Therapy, 2011
This is the second study to investigate the clinical use of the Parent-Instruction Game with Youngsters (PIGGY) which is a structured observation system derived from the Dyadic Parent-Child Interaction Coding System II (DPICS-II; Eyberg, Bessmer, Newcomb, Edwards, & Robinson, 1994) and the Behavior Coding System (BCS; Forehand & McMahon, 1981). In…

Torrens, Paul M.; Griffin, William A. – Environment and Behavior, 2013
The authors describe an observational and analytic methodology for recording and interpreting dynamic microprocesses that occur during social interaction, making use of space--time data collection techniques, spatial-statistical analysis, and visualization. The scheme has three investigative foci: Structure, Activity Composition, and Clustering.…

Powell, Tamela Marie – ProQuest LLC, 2011
Autism is the fastest growing disability ever. With the growth comes a lot of questions as to the etiologies and treatment of this condition, often putting parents, schools, and traditional medical personnel at odds with what treatments have efficacy. As the popularity of alternative treatments increase, so does the need for research. …
