Abstract
The provision of choice opportunities and the assessment of and integration of clients’ preferences are professional obligations of behavior analysts working with children with autism and other developmental disabilities. Stimulus preference assessments that use empirically derived choice arrangements can determine relative preference among different stimuli, and preference rankings have been shown to have good predictive validity on the reinforcing efficacy of these stimuli. This chapter reviews choice and preference assessment procedures to use when self-reporting is either unreliable or impossible due to limited verbal abilities. The research supporting these procedures and practical step-by-step directions on their implementation are provided. In addition, variables that can affect assessment outcomes and considerations when implementing preference assessments for individual clients are reviewed.
