Using a Multidimensional Model to Analyze Context and Enhance Personal Outcomes
Shogren, Karrie A.; Luckasson, Ruth; Schalock, Robert L.
Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, v58 n2 p95-110 Apr 2020
This article describes a multidimensional model of context that identifies, defines, and explains three key properties of context: multilevel, multifactorial, and interactive. The use of this model to drive a context-based enhancement cycle is also described. The enhancement cycle involves four steps: (a) identifying current interactions that influence personal goals and outcomes; (b) targeting the interaction that will have the highest impact on selected outcomes for the individual; (c) manipulating the contextual factors that will positively influence the interaction; and (d) evaluating the impact of the manipulated interaction on personal outcomes. The article concludes with a discussion of the implications of using a multidimensional model of context to enhance personal outcomes.
