Select an empirical article from the Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis (one that is not assigned as a required reading in this course) that includes a preference assessment in an assessment. Identify the type of preference assessment used and, in your own words, describe the procedures. Summarize the outcomes and explain how the preference assessment informed the assessment or intervention procedures. Make a case for why this type of preference assessment was or was not the best choice for the participant(s) in the study.
For this discussion board post, you will locate an article that has been published in JABA, which includes a preference assessment to inform intervention. It must be an article not included in your readings, as this will support your learning experience related to this important topic. You will describe the type of assessment and procedures used, as well as the implications it provided for the intervention. You will then evaluate the choice of preference assessment procedures, given the context in which it was used and the information provided.
