Sandra is the supervising BCBA of Kyle, an RBT. Currently, Kyle is assigned to three of Sandra’s clients. This is a perfect number of clients, as Kyle is also in a graduate program and continually balancing his clinical work and schoolwork. Sandra recently obtained a new client who engages in severe, challenging behavior. Kyle is the only RBT at Sandra’s clinic who has experience with challenging behavior. Given Kyle’s experience, Sandra pressures Kyle to take on this additional client by making frequent requests (e.g., “Kyle, I’m counting on you. You’re the only RBT qualified to work with this client. This will be an amazing experience for you!”). Kyle decides to take on the client, thinking it will be a good experience for him anyway, and wants to demonstrate that he can handle more work. Each time Sandra gets a new client with the same behavioral concerns, she pressures Kyle to join the case. Kyle now has six clients and is falling behind in his schoolwork. Sandra and Kyle are in an exploitive relationship. Based on the scenario, describe the short- and long-term consequences of Sandra’s and Kyle’s behavior in their exploitive relationship. Then, describe how the short- and long-term consequences will change when Kyle exerts counter-control.
