. As shown above, the fluency accel is staying at a high level, with no trend and with low variability and an outlier on 11/14. The variability is hypothesized to be related to me taking too long to answer the cards for the rest of the week. Although with these results, fluency was still maintained throughout the week. The fluency decel is present at a low level, with no trend, and low variability.
Study Approach and Adjustments
Antecedent:
My current study schedule has been shown to be effective over deck 4. The first step was to set my weekly goal to be 14 which is AIM. With that being said, I determined my reinforcers for the week, and if this goal is met by Friday, I then can get reinforced by having Friday night be a study free night and relax for the rest of the night. Another goal I set for myself is that if I sustain meeting AIM for the week, I can spend a few hours out with my husband on Saturday early morning. My current reinforcement procedures include one, being reinforced by completing the SAFMEDS cards study time and inputting the data by 10:30 pm. Additional procedures include studying 4 days per week for 10 minutes by reading through flashcards I made of Deck 2 by saying the terms/definitions out loud. The last procedure I can do is use the “study mode” on the SAFMEDS app after studying the flashcards then do my timings for an additional 10-20 minutes. If I am successful with the last two procedures, I can reinforce myself by watching preferred TV show(s) before bed or play a mobile game until I fall asleep.
Behavior
: For five days this week, I ran five 30-second timings and entered the best data points into Precision X. For my fluency deck 2 from previous SAFMEDS decks, I ran three 30-second timings across all 5 days of the week. The data is analyzed for fluency with the previous decks from ABA
620 to ABA 630. With the timings, maintaining fluency, I was content of being able to still reach AIM with the fluency deck while also being able to reach AIM with deck 2 of SAFMEDS in ABA 630.
Consequence
: Following my last best timing, I entered the data into Precision X immediately. I looked at the data for the week and the deck to see if AIM was sustained throughout week 4
.
This
week’s acquisition accel data had low variability while AIM was met all five days. At the end of week 4, I met my weekly accel goal of 14 all week so my behaviors were reinforced by getting to
relax and watch my preferred TV show(s) or played my mobile game and lastly was able to spend some time with my husband on Saturday early morning
Adjustments
: Due to the accel meeting AIM for week 4, except for one day, I will continue my studying procedures and do the timings earlier in the day so I don’t risk having a low accel score again and can have a better chance to reinforce good behaviors this coming week 5 of SAFMEDS.
