The Framework

Post-it-note-sized training and observation tool: (1) Draw a plus-sign creating four spaces, (2) Assign one behavioral element to each space using abbreviations, (3) Make initial observations at conversation start, (4) Annotate changes with abbreviations/arrows, (5) Circle annotations when you identify the contextual cause.

How It Works

The Quadrant Method provides a structured approach to understanding Baselining, Behavioral Observation Training, Contextual Cause Identification as presented in Chapter 15 of Six-Minute X-Ray.
