Behavior Modification Project: Baseline Phase Report Assignment Instructions

Overview


To assess your baseline as you begin the experiment, you need to observe your target behavior before you ever treat it or try to modify it – in other words do not change anything you do. Thus, you will conduct a functional analysis of your target behavior as it naturally occurs. The baseline observation of your target behavior should be done for at least one week.

Instructions

You will submit the 1–3-page
Behavior Modification Project: Baseline Phase Report Assignment, which will consist of a description of the following parts with Level One headings, and a graph appropriately labeled (see chapter 3 of your textbook). This writing of the reports for Behavior Modification should be clear, measurable, and concise. Write in complete sentences, but do not use “fluff”.

1.
Target Behavior: A clear and measurable behavioral definition of your target behavior (use examples if needed to clarify) should be stated with research support for an operational definition of the behavior. Someone should be able to know exactly what is being observed and measured from this description.

2.
Observation Period & Dimensions: Show the dates (and times if relevant) of your baseline phase. Discuss what dimension(s) were used to measure the behavior (Frequency, Intensity, Duration, Latency). Be sure to explain how the dimensions were measured. Clarify the logistics, setting, and process of your experiment’s baseline observation phase (natural or analogue setting, structured or unstructured observation, recording method and instrument, etc.).

3.
Results: Discuss the actual results of the data. This section provides the specifics of the data. Include a graph of the data. Normally the date is the x axis and the dimensions is the y axis. The graph should be embedded into the paper in APA formatting.

4.
Baseline Observations: Clearly and completely, but concisely, summarize your observations of the target behavior during the baseline phase. Descriptions should be made of triggers (settings/stress/work/conflict) that bring on the target behavior, and stimuli that help it. Consider possible environmental aspects that may contribute to the data. Critically analyze the different data points for potential interpretations.

Note: This assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.
