Measurable and immeasurable aspects of quality

Quality is an important aspect of many behavioral events. The term “ high quality” alludes to normative parts of how something is or should be, how we perceive something to be when it is according to desire. High degree of quality is a description of something good. Whenever quality is being used in relation to description of behavioral interventions, we have some clear guidelines in Baer et al (1968). These guidelines are clear to the extent that they prescribe a methodology to support quantitative aspects of the different dimensions of applied behavior analytic work. This framework does, however, not dictate the measures of quality in behavioral interventions. Whenever behavioral treatments are implemented, quality of the treatment should be measured whenever possible.
