Assessing Dissemination Capability

Disseminating packaged behavioral intervention programs appears to be an increasingly important objective in the field of applied behavior analysis. An exportable training package, designed to teach helping skills to community service workers, was evaluated with two social service agencies. The package was mailed to a community proctor who administered the materials without direct instructional contact with the experimenters. The results showed that the percentage of specified trainee target behaviors increased after the training package was introduced. Ratings of trainee performance by independent community service workers correlated with behavior observations of trainee performance. This study illustrates a method for assessing the effectiveness of behavioral interventions to be disseminated to potential consumers.
