Prior research has evaluated the reliability and validity of structured visual inspection (SVI) criteria for interpreting functional analysis (FA) outcomes (Hagopian et al., 1997; Roane et al., 2013). We adapted these criteria to meet the unique needs of interpreting latency-based FA outcomes and examined the reliability and validity of applying SVI criteria to 43 previously published latency-based FA datasets. Overall, raters agreed on SVI-determined FA outcomes (98% of functions and 95% of cases) and these outcomes corresponded well to the interpretations provided by the authors of these 43 datasets (94% of functions and 88% of cases), indicating a high degree of reliability and concurrent validity. Our findings suggest that the use of SVI criteria may (a) serve as an objective aid in the identification of behavioral function(s), (b) produce high levels of agreement among expert raters, and (c) serve as a useful resource when teaching students how to interpret latency-based FA outcomes.

使用结构化视觉检查标准来解释基于延迟的功能分析结果的可靠性和有效性

先前的研究评估了结构化视觉检查 (SVI) 标准用于解释功能分析 (FA) 结果的可靠性和有效性（Hagopian 等人，1997；Roane 等人，2013）。我们调整了这些标准以满足解释基于延迟的 FA 结果的独特需求，并检查了将 SVI 标准应用于 43 个先前发布的基于延迟的 FA 数据集的可靠性和有效性。总体而言，评估者同意 SVI 确定的 FA 结果（98% 的功能和 95% 的案例），这些结果与这 43 个数据集（94% 的功能和 88% 的案例）的作者提供的解释非常吻合，表明高度的信度和同时效度。我们的研究结果表明，使用 SVI 标准可以（a）作为识别行为功能的客观帮助，
