“…Nonetheless, renewal may still be relevant to OBM, as context likely has an important influence on employee behavior. For example, peer feedback systems can often be found in research and practice within behavior-based safety (Gravina, Lindstrom-Hazel, & Austin, 2007;Ludwig, 2015). Employees may receive high quality coaching and support on their adherence to safety regulations from their morning shift peer (context A), but no coaching and support from their afternoon shift peer (context B).…”

Organizational settings are replete with changing stimulus contexts and contingencies, which makes relapse a particularly relevant framework for understanding the ways in which controlling stimuli influence employee responding. The purpose of the current study was to develop a translational model to assess renewal of desirable behavior in a simulated workplace with neurotypical adults. Experiment 1 assessed renewal of desirable behavior using a computerized check processing task. Experiment 2 extended the findings and the translational utility of the experimental arrangement to implementation of a behavior-analytic teaching procedure. Results across both experiments demonstrated renewal of desirable behavior. Overall, the current methodology and findings extend the human operant literature on renewal and demonstrate a translational model that brings together operant renewal and organizational behavior management.

“…Many applications of performance management have been evaluated in organizational behavior management research (Daniels & Bailey, 2014; Ludwig, 2015; Wine & Pritchard, 2018) and, to a lesser extent, with ABA care providers working in educational and treatment settings (Arco, 2008; Gravina et al, 2018; Luiselli, 2018). A particularly effective approach to performance management consists of supervisors (a) observing care providers implementing procedures with service recipients, (b) recording procedural integrity, and (c) presenting behavior-contingent praise and correction (Parsons, Rollyson, & Reid, 2012).…”

This study evaluated performance improvement interventions to increase and maintain data recording of activity completion with students by 9 educational care providers. Implemented in a multiple baseline design across 2 classrooms, activity completion data recording increased when the instructors received weekly written and graphic feedback from a supervisor. In a second intervention phase, the instructors maintained near-100% activity completion data recording through self-management without written and graphic feedback and with faded supervision contact. The classroom instructors positively rated all intervention components and recommended the type of supervision to other staff. Study results support written and graphic feedback, self-management, and supervision fading as practical methods for improving and maintaining performance competencies of care providers within education service settings.

“…The field of applied behavior analysis has a long, successful history of producing therapeutic gains within the human services industry, and OBM has been an integral piece of this success. In fact, Sturmey (2010) described OBM and ABA in developmental disabilities as "old friends," or as Ludwig (2015) notes, OBM is the enabler of ABA. OBM has implemented successfully in many types of health and human service settings, including hospital emergency rooms (Kelley & Gravina, 2018), outpatient medical clinics (Slowiak, 2014), physical therapy clinics (Gravina, VanWagner, & Austin, 2008), brain injury treatment centers (Guercio & Dixon, 2011), schools (Gavoni and Rodriguez, 2016;Phillips, 1998), special education (Maher, 1981), residential treatment centers (Gil and Carter, 2016;Parsons, Cash & Reed, 1989;Sasaki and Noro, 2017), psychiatric group homes (Huberman & O'Brien, 1999) and therapeutic and educational organizations that serve individuals with autism (Cook and Dixon, 2005;Miller, Carlson, Sigurdsson, 2014).…”

In 2017, the Association for Behavior Analysis International conference held a special one-day pre-conference on Organizational Behavior Management (OBM) in Health and Human Services (HHS). This pre-conference featured experts presenting on topics that highlight the breadth and range of OBM, particularly as it is applied within HHS. Dr. Aubrey Daniels kicked off the day's events with an introduction to OBM told through the lens of his 40 years of experience and expertise as a leading OBM consultant and author. While some of the talks presented behavioral systems analysis (BSA) and largescale change, others targeted performance management (PM) and day-today supervision and management requirements, demonstrating that OBM is useful for both strategic and tactical organizational performance improvement. Presenting on BSA and large-scale change, Dr. Heather McGee kicked things off with her talk on how HHS organizations can use BSA to implement large-scale change initiatives. Brett DiNovi presented on the specific leadership accomplishments and behaviors required to successfully and sustainably grow organizations serving individuals with ASD. Dr. Mark Dixon described system-wide interventions that OBMers and HHS organizational leaders could use to promote both sound financial and clinical practices. Drilling down into the PM side of OBM, Dr. Donald Hantula described how OBM can and should be incorporated into supervision practices to ethically improve and support employee performance, while Dr. Florence DiGennaro Reed presented a three-term model for ongoing staff training and performance management. Finally, Dr. Nicholas Weatherly presented an OBM approach to building a clinical safety culture to improve employee safety performance.
