Technological refers to a key dimension of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) in which all procedures in a program, intervention, or study are thoroughly identified and described with enough detail that another practitioner could replicate them. The clear, step-by-step descriptions ensure consistency and accuracy in implementation.
Example
A behavior intervention plan includes detailed instructions on how to deliver reinforcement, collect data, and implement a timeout procedure. These instructions are so specific that any trained professional could follow them exactly, ensuring the intervention can be replicated. This detailed documentation meets the “technological” requirement of ABA.
