Popis: | Stimulus equivalence is a behavior analytic term that refers to the emergence of untrained relations between stimuli after training on some relations between them. After this training and emergence of untrained relations, the stimuli are said to functionsymbolically for one another. Equivalence-based instruction (EBI) is an approach to instruction that utilizes stimulus equivalence procedures to facilitate emergent relations in educational settings. EBI has been implemented in a variety of contexts with a variety of subjects. However, the extent to which EBI is used among practicing behavior analysts and the training experiences of those who do use EBI in practice has yet to be assessed. Practicing behavior analysts were surveyed on their use of EBI in clinical settings and were asked questions about their training and perceived barriers to implementing the procedures. Results indicated that most behavior analysts reported using EBI but also identified barriers to greater use or consideration of implementing EBI in their program design. Limitation and directions for future research are discussed. |
