The first relevant section in the BACB® Ethics Code which pertains to FBAs is “2.01 Misrepresentation” which states that a behavior analyst must not misrepresent their qualifications or work product/deliverables they are providing; as well as avoiding any deceptive acts such as making false claims about their experience, credentials or results of their intervention.
This means that FBAs must adequately represent any research findings and recommendations presented while ensuring its accuracy through proper sources/methods so there are no issues with misinformation being provided.
Next, “4.03 Informed Consent” requires that prior to initiating an FBA, consent from all persons involved (e.g., client/family members etc.) must be obtained following appropriate procedures such as informing them about potential risks associated with the assessment & interventions along with providing details on who will have access to data collected during its duration.
Lastly, section “5 Professional Responsibility” outlines various duties & responsibilities expected of a behavior analyst regarding their service provision including maintaining professional relationships with clients & colleagues while adhering to applicable laws/regulations pertaining to ethical practice in this profession.
In conclusion, these sections in BACB® Ethics Code demonstrate importance of maintaining high standards when conducting FBAs while also protecting rights of all parties involved throughout its duration
regards to the osmosis of pieces into lumps. Mill operator recognizes pieces and lumps of data, the differentiation being that a piece is comprised of various pieces of data. It is fascinating to take note of that while there is a limited ability to recall lumps of data, how much pieces in every one of those lumps can change broadly (Miller, 1956). Anyway it’s anything but a straightforward instance of having the memorable option huge pieces right away, somewhat that as each piece turns out to be more natural, it very well may be acclimatized into a lump, which is then recollected itself. Recoding is the interaction by which individual pieces are ‘recoded’ and allocated to lumps. Consequently the ends that can be drawn from Miller’s unique work is that, while there is an acknowledged breaking point to the quantity of pieces of data that can be put away in prompt (present moment) memory, how much data inside every one of those lumps can be very high, without unfavorably influencing the review of similar number
