How to Distinguish Generalization From Response Variability
Separate response diversity from performance across untrained people, settings, materials, instructions, and responses using explicit probes and exposure controls.
Clinician guide
How to Separate Meaningful Variability From Error and Access Failure
Classify meaningful variants, useful repeats, errors, unsafe responses, prompts, AAC and motor access failures, health, withdrawal, and invalid opportunities.
Clinician guide
How to Compare Programmed and Obtained Variability Contingencies
Compare delivered variability contingencies using eligible variants, consequence timing and quality, prompts, corrections, competing events, and integrity.
Clinician guide
How to Evaluate a Lag Schedule Without Assuming Creativity
Evaluate a lag schedule using its history rule, eligible response, reinforcement, prompts, comparison, integrity, access, experience, and generalization limits.
Clinician guide
How to Measure Unique Responses and Opportunity Exposure
Measure unique responses with locked opportunities, response windows, prompts, valid and invalid trials, raw sequences, repeats, cumulative novelty, and exposure.
Clinician guide
How to Define Response Classes and Variability Dimensions
Define a functional response class and meaningful variability dimensions across form, sequence, timing, material, partner, setting, message, access, and value.
Clinician guide
How to Define a Response-Variability Assessment Question
Define response variability using a client-priority decision, response class, meaningful dimension, opportunities, comparisons, access, experience, and action rules.
Clinician guide
How to Document Treatment-Relapse Evidence and Limits
Document relapse evidence using response classes, phase histories, treatment versions, reinforcement, integrity, access, health, recurrence, experience, and limits.
Clinician guide
How to Reassess After a Relapse-Like Recurrence
Reassess after recurrence by addressing safety, preserving the event, and verifying treatment, integrity, context, reinforcement, access, health, and experience.
Clinician guide
How to Monitor Relapse Risk Without Provoking Recurrence
Monitor relapse risk through routine transitions, natural delays, integrity checks, and early signals while protecting communication, assent, rollback, and safety.
Clinician guide
How to Audit Reinforcement and Exposure Histories Before a Relapse Claim
Audit reinforcement and exposure before a relapse claim, with obtained consequences, timing, thinning, interruptions, outside access, partner delivery, and gaps.
