Building ABC Data Sheets

Through the Aloha Data Collection website, users are able to create client-specific ABC Data Sheets to be used by any provider using the App to collect direct data on the client. This allows you to create checklists for Antecedents, Behaviors, Consequences, and location so that this information does not need to be typed out manually when collecting data on the App. However, if needed, app users will always have the option to manually enter this information, should the created checklist not offer a suitable option.  

While you have the option to create Skill Acquisition and Behavior Reduction programs in your Organization Library, ABC Data Sheets are intended to be individualized to a client, and can only be created within a client’s profile. They cannot be added to your Organization Library.

If you do not create a custom ABC data sheet for a client, ABC data can still be collected manually during any session with the client.

Creating an ABC Data Sheet

1. Navigate to  from the left side menu
2. If you have not already done so, select a learner from the "select client" bar at the top of the web page 
   
3. Navigate to the "ABC Data Collection" tab.  
   

4.  If desired, add “Treatment Area” tags (e.g. Behavior Reduction, safety). Hit comma or the ENTER key to enter more than one tag.

5.  If desired, add Teaching Instructions.

6.  Use the  button to add Antecedents (e.g. demand, transition, item removed), Behaviors (e.g., elopement, aggression), Consequences (e.g. redirect, prompt FCT, attention extinction), and Locations (e.g. hallway, bathroom, table, outside, etc).  To edit any entries, hoover your mouse over the entry, and select .  To add more entries, select the in the top right corner of the box. To delete an entry or entries, check this items you would like to delete and select the  icon.

7.  If you have previously created behavior reduction programs for your client, you can import these behaviors onto your ABC Data Sheet by selecting the  icon in the Behavior box.  This will allow you to select some or all of the behaviors that have pre-existing programs in place.

9.  Navigate through the Antecedents, Behaviors, Consequences, and Locations sections and add any items that you feel would be useful for that client. Are will always be able to come back to the data sheet to add, delete, or edit any items.
