This week, you will begin using skills assessment data to inform your behavioral

This week, you will begin using skills assessment data to inform your behavioral treatment plans. As a behavior analyst, the most effective treatment plans are crafted from the information collected via the assessment process. For this discussion, you will review the ABLLS protocol and grid for Bobby to inform your treatment decisions for the case scenario below.
Develop an intervention to improve a hypothetical client’s mand repertoire based on the ABLLS grid (above) and case scenario information provided below. Be sure that you identify the following in your response:
The response topography targeted (e.g., vocals, sign, or pictures)
Initial mand targets, and why you chose them
The specific procedures you will use during mand training (make sure these are described thoroughly enough so that someone else could implement your intervention)
Whether you will use DTT, NET, or a combination of both, and why
Scenario: Bobby presents to your clinic as a very early learner. He currently has no reliable way to communicate his wants and needs, but he will sometimes pull his caregiver’s hand toward an item he likes and will reach for items he wants when they are visible. Bobby has few powerful reinforcers but enjoys watching videos on his tablet, loves drinking juice and eating cookies, and enjoys physical play such as climbing playground equipment and swinging on swings. Bobby currently makes a few vocal speech sounds (e.g., uhh, mmm, eeee), but they are not under any echoic control. Bobby has some emerging motor imitation skills and some relatively strong visual performance skills. (e.g., He can match identical 3D objects, such as when completing puzzles.)
