Q: Do I have to buy a credit each time I want to do an assessment? A: No. A credit (19.99 or less) enables you to add a new student. Each student, once in the system, enjoys unlimited assessments for life.
Q: Are the scoring grids cumulative ? A: Yes, just like the print version. After four assessments, just tap and swipe to the left to get to the next page for the next set of four and on and on. No limit on the number of assessments. You can even enter existing paper based assessments and back-date them!
Q: Can I get my students assessments from multiple iPads? A: Yes. See above. Web based version of the app can be accessed from any PC, Mac or tablet as long as it has internet connectivity!
Q: If I send this newsletter along to all my friends an co-workers who may be interested, is it true that I get a free student credit? A: Yes. If you're this deep into this newsletter, you deserve a gift. Just cc or bcc steve@datatmtd.com, include at least 25 people on the recipient list and I'll hook you up. You will have to have the full version of the app already, however. (see in-app and store links below). Yes, this was the "not to miss" thing. We may not continue this much longer as the word is getting out there so don't delay. See the "Farewell" panel up and to the right.Q: Can the iPad assessments be viewed in the new web based interface? A: Not yet but that capability will be in place this Spring and will be a seamless enhancement in service.
This two day onsite course is priced at $400.00 per participant and includes a printed course guide, a very experienced BCBA as your instructor and lots of hands on activities and exercises that ensure all students in the course can really conduct the VB-MAPP assessment!
Over the past 30 years, numerous instruments have been developed within the ABA framework that specifically target skill acquisition for individuals diagnosed with ASD. Until recently, there has been very limited research about the types of instruments used for individuals with ASD despite the critical role assessment plays in the diagnosis, treatment planning, and progress monitoring for this population (Ackley et al. 2019; Luiselli et al. 2001; Padilla 2020b). Luiselli et al. (2001) surveyed 113 treatment centers in the United States that served children with ASD regarding their use of standardized instruments and purposes of assessment practices. The majority of identified assessments were used to evaluate intelligence, motor skills, and language/communication and were primarily used for diagnostic and curriculum design. The most commonly reported instrument used was the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales (Sparrow, 1994) with 60.6% respondents reporting its use for screening (15.6%), diagnosis (22.8%), curriculum design (16.3%), and semiannual/annual evaluations (23.2%).
Austin and Thomas (2017) conducted a small-scale survey with 99 participants in the state of Washington regarding their clinical assessment practices for diagnostic and educational programming. The Austin and Thomas (2017) study was the first to focus on practices specific to professionals working in behavior analysis. A slight majority of respondents (56%) reported using the Verbal Behavior Milestones Assessment and Placement and Program (VB-MAPP; Sundberg 2014) and about 40% reported using the Assessment of Basic Language Learning Skills-Revised (ABLLS-R; Partington 2006) for programming.
Understanding and conducting validity research is crucial for the scientific advancement of ABA assessment within research and practice given the prevalent use of skill acquisition assessments used within the field (Padilla 2020b). Within the field of ABA, decisions regarding assessment must be based on evidence and research. There is a strong need for both an evaluative tool for examining ABA instruments as well as high quality validity studies involving instruments in ABA. Given that the VB-MAPP is the most widely used instrument, validity evidence should be examined in order to have confidence in the decisions made based on its results (Padilla 2020a) and to support its continued used.
The design of the current study was modeled after Usry et al. (2018), which examined the content validity of less commonly used ABA-based assessment (i.e., ABLLS-R; Padilla 2020b). The current study incorporated the recommended improvements of Usry et al. (2018) so as to avoid the same limitations, which were the small number of SMEs, lack of geographic representation of the SMEs, wide range of inclusion criteria to qualify as an SME, and the need for the evaluation of CVRs using critical values established by the work of Wilson et al. (2012). Each of these limitations was directly addressed in the design of the current study.
The results of the current study could also inform revisions to future editions of the VB-MAPP. With some targeted revisions, the VB-MAPP could serve as a comprehensive assessment with strong validity evidence for this developmental age range. A summary of the strength of evidence across categories for the VB-MAPP Milestone domains, EESA, and Barriers Assessment is provided in Table 4. 2b1af7f3a8
