在这项研究中，比较了描述性、实验性和基于信息的功能评估方法在四名表现出问题行为的发展性残疾个体中的结果。结果表明，描述性评估和实验评估在四个案例中只有一个是一致的，而基于线人的评估和实验评估在四个案例中有三个是一致的。描述性评估确定了所有情况下的细微关注时间表。这些结果似乎质疑了对问题行为采用描述性评估作为实验评估的辅助或替代的有用性，特别是考虑到它们的耗时性质。(C)2005爱思唯尔有限公司。保留所有权利。
In this study, the outcomes of descriptive, experimental and informnant-based methods of functional assessment were compared in four individuals with developmental disabilities who showed problem behaviors. Results indicated that the descriptive and experimental assessments were concordant in only one of the four cases whilst informant-based and experimental assessments were concordant in three of the four cases. The descriptive assessment identified thin schedules of attention in all cases. These results appear to question the usefulness of employing descriptive assessments for problem behaviors either as an adjunct or replacement for experimental assessments, particularly given their time-consuming nature.
