You are monitoring one of your staff member's performance regarding a new intervention. She implements the intervention with one minor flaw. How should feedback be provided?

Provide immediate praise for the parts of the performance that were correct. At a later time, and before her next opportunity to perform the intervention, address the minor flaw and describe what actions she can take to perform better next time.

Correct Answer: Provide immediate praise for the parts of the performance that were correct. At a later time, and before her next opportunity to perform the intervention, address the minor flaw and describe what actions she can take to perform better next time. Provide immediate reinforcement via praise but do not provide corrective feedback immediately as your supervisees may pair your presence with punishment (making you a conditioned punisher). However, you should provide corrective feedback prior to the next performance so that the incorrect performance does not continue to occur. Ignore the flaw in her performance; since it was not reinforced it will not happen again is incorrect. If the supervisor does not tell the supervisee that the performance is incorrect, she may never know (and may continue to perform that skill incorrectly). *##**##*
