How ABASmart Covers the Four-Part Framework for ABA Session Notes

In the field of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), writing accurate and effective session notes is critical. One common approach is the four-part framework, which includes Intervention (EBP), Skill or Behavior, DSM-5 ASD Deficit, and Progress Level. At ABASmart, we’ve integrated these essential components into our note generation system, making it easier for both BCBAs and RBTs to produce high-quality session notes.

Intervention (EBP)

Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) is foundational in ABA therapy. Our system supports documentation of the specific interventions used during each session, whether you’re applying Discrete Trial Teaching, Naturalistic Teaching, or other ABA methodologies. This allows for clear, consistent notes that ensure compliance with best practices.

Skill or Behavior

Identifying the Skill or Behavior being targeted in each session is crucial. Our tool enables you to document whether you’re teaching a new skill, addressing maladaptive behavior, or maintaining an established behavior. This keeps your narrative focused and precise, aligning with the goals of your client’s treatment plan.

DSM-5 ASD Deficit

For clients diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), as defined by the DSM-5, it’s important to highlight specific deficits. With our note generator, you can easily include these in your narrative, making it simple to track and report on areas where the client is struggling or showing improvement. This level of detail is essential for accurate assessments and reporting.

Progress Level

Documenting the Progress Level of a client is key to monitoring improvement over time. Our system allows both BCBAs and RBTs to record progress quickly and efficiently during each session. This ensures that your notes reflect the client’s ongoing development and provide a clear picture of growth or areas that require further attention.

Designed for Both Analysts and RBTs

Our platform is designed to meet the needs of both BCBAs and RBTs. For BCBAs, ABASmart provides a streamlined process for creating detailed session notes that incorporate the four-part framework, saving time while ensuring accuracy. For RBTs, the user-friendly interface makes it simple to collect and input data that aligns with the analytical needs of the supervising BCBA.
