dc.description.abstractChallenging behaviors are the most impactful factor in parent stress (Davis & Carter, 2008) and prevalence of challenging behaviors are especially high for those with a developmental delay (Dunlap et al., 2006). Currently, there is an escalating need for early intervention services and trained professionals (Hine et al., 2018); however, specific barriers make it difficult for parents to access services. Some of these barriers include; lack of resources, geographical location, and COVID-19 pandemic. Parents are left to serve as the primary interventionist and behavior change agent to their child’s behaviors (Cluver et al., 2020; Unholz-Bowden et al., 2020). The current investigation aimed to reduced these barriers by using a concurrent multiple baseline across dyads design to investigate a treatment package comprised of Behavioral Skills Training and Say All Fast A Minute Each Day Shuffled (SAFMEDS) flashcards. The study included parents with children with mild to moderated challenging behaviors and a developmental delay. All trainings and observations took place using two-way videoconferencing technology. Results of the interventions found a functional relation for increased parent treatment fidelity; however, a clinical significant change in child challenging behavior was not detected. Parents also rated the intervention as acceptable, efficient, and effective.en_US
