The Comprehensive Behavior Assessment & Treatment Tools
Our flagship system, the C-BATT®, is a growing family of technology-based tools that enhance assessment and treatment. C-BATT® programs have been used as part of Positive Behavior Support Plans, Functional Behavior Assessments, and in Psychoeducational Assessments. Additionally, individual clients have used it to control urges, maintain better daily living skills, learn anger control techniques, and manage anxiety symptoms.
Can you interview six adults in five minutes?
C-BATT® Rapid Screener® was developed in 2002 after years of creating similar paper-based forms. It came from my desire to create a tool that mimicked the ability to interview multiple individuals about a student's functioning.What if you could interview both parents and several middle school teachers, and possibly DIS staff as well... in 5 minutes? The concept was so appealing I just had to try. While there are excellent survey and rating tools for assessing behavior, e.g., the BASC, CBC, and BRIEF, these are standardized tools. I wanted a method that collected information to develop a more thorough understanding of the individual being assessed from multiple perspectives.
In fact, our preliminary data from Rapid Screener® version 3.5, released Spring of 2011, indicates that slightly more than 50% of raters report that our system collected information more efficiently than occurred during live clinical interviews. Only a small percentage, 15%, reported that it seemed less efficient.
Keeping families informed and helping students cope successfully
C-BATT® Progress Communicator® was designed as a friendly method to allow students to 1) communicate how their day went at school, especially when problems occurred; 2) to give them a way to report on problems and practice positive coping strategies when adverse situations arose at school. Subsequently, we developed teacher and staff reporting versions, customizable to fit individual school situations.We are currently piloting a new data reporting tool with our 25 families whose children participate in our intensive summer treatment program. Initial feedback is extremely positive.
