Abstract
ABSTRACT The field of behavior analysis is experiencing high rates of turnover. Reports suggest that provider turnover is as high as 75% per year and is due to several variables, such as supervisory support, burnout, and pay. A promising applied intervention to mitigate turnover is addressing supervisory support. Our research explores the impact of procedural fidelity data collection on retention. We leveraged a longitudinal design to evaluate the relationship between evaluation frequency and monthly fidelity score on retention. Using BSTperform, we systematically recorded the number of evaluations conducted, the monthly fidelity scores, and the employment status of providers three months after the evaluations. Results reveal that those observed four times per month or with a high-fidelity score are likely to remain at the organization longer than those who are not observed frequently and have low fidelity scores. Retention trends and the link between evaluation frequency and monthly fidelity score are discussed.
