What causes us to behave the way
we do?
The application of behavior analytic principles to effect
meaningful behavior change
Applied
We seek to improve socially significant behavior
Behavior
We focus on assessing and treating objectively defined and
observable behaviors
Analysis
We use strict measurement to document behavior change and
treatment effects
Some doors cannot be closed once opened
Individuals taught each other
We knew rewards and coercion were
effective at changing behavior
Bowling existed before we understood the physics behind the sport
Cooking existed before we understood the chemistry behind the art
Knowledge of behavior analysis similarly
enhances the act of changing behavior
You can do it without the science, but you’re a
heck of a lot less effective.

MISAPPLICATIONS· 1. A teacher in a special education classroom w.docxannandleola
MISAPPLICATIONS
· 1. A teacher in a special education classroom was working with a child with severe intellectual disability. The teacher was using small bites of food as reinforcers in a training program to help the child make correct letter discriminations. The teacher decided to arrange an establishing operation that would make food a more powerful reinforcer so that the child would be more likely to respond correctly in training sessions. Because training sessions were in the early afternoon, the teacher decided to keep the child from eating lunch at noon. The teacher reasoned that if the child did not eat lunch, food would be a more effective reinforcer in the afternoon. What is wrong with this antecedent control strategy? What would be a better antecedent control strategy to use in this case?
· 2. Milt wanted to start working out more often. He decided that the best way to get into a regular workout routine would be to join a health club. He joined a club that was a 30-minute drive away. Milt reasoned that once he paid the membership fee for a year, he would be more likely to drive there and work out at least a few times a week. And because he paid the fee for the full year, he believed that he would continue to work out at the club for the whole year. What is wrong with this strategy? What could Milt do to make it more likely that he would work out regularly?
· 3. Dr. Drake, a dentist, was concerned that many of her patients did not floss their teeth regularly and were therefore at risk for gum disease. Dr. Drake devised a plan to get her patients to floss every day. Every time patients came in for a 338339checkup or cleaning, Dr. Drake showed them awful pictures of people with gum disease and pictures of painful surgery that the people with gum disease had to endure because they did not floss regularly. Before the patients left the office, she told them that they could avoid the awful gum disease and the painful surgery by flossing their teeth for 2 minutes every day. What antecedent control strategy was Dr. Drake using to get her patients to floss their teeth? Why is this strategy, by itself, not enough to keep people flossing? What other strategies would you add to make it more likely that people would keep flossing their teeth regularly?
· 4. Sandy, a third grade student with learning problems, attended a special class. She usually engaged in disruptive behaviors in the classroom when required to complete math problems. The teacher conducted a functional assessment and found that the request to do math problems was the primary antecedent to the disruptive behavior. The teacher decided to use an antecedent manipulation and no longer asked Sandy to do math problems. The teacher reasoned that if Sandy was no longer asked to do math problems, the disruptive behavior would be less likely to occur. What is the problem with this procedure?

Behavioral Change Comment by DrG: Begin at top of page
Humans are unique and complex beings who have to keep up with a number of things to survive and coexist with others within a given environment. However, it is worth noting that people are usually different and not all behaviors portrayed by different individuals appeal to the society. The best factor about human behaviors is that they can be changed and transformed to what the society considers as right (Youngberg, 2004). The best way to achieve behavioral structuring and modeling is through defining the right paths of action to be followed in order to adopt the acceptable code of ethics. The best path could be self-driven or environmentally dictated. Behavioral change is a topic that has attracted a lot of attention from researchers and resulted into numerous publications with different ideas about the matter. There are countless theories about how one can achieve behavioral change. To explore various dynamics governing behavioral change, this paper explores conditioning as one of the theories of various character changes and how it has affected my own behaviors. Comment by DrG: Your paper needs a strong introduction. The introduction provides you with an opportunity to capture your reader's attention and to provide an overview of your paper. Then add your thesis statement “the purpose of this paper is to…”
Behavioral changes involve either starting something that never existed before or dumping the old doings that have always been part and parcel of one’s life. There are two theories of behavioral change that are more established; classical and operant conditioning. It is a common notion that despite the fact that there are over seven billion people in the world, each person is unique in a way, and the key to transformation or significant changes is by experimenting ethically accepted traits and adopting the ones that best suit an individual. One feature may work pretty well for one individual but turn out to be a total disaster for the next person (Kim, 2015). There is no particular method in human life that works well for everyone, and the fact that a particular strategy does not work for you should be a reason to try something else and not consider oneself a failure. Diversity is the reason the world is accommodative to all people. Comment by DrG: These are two types of learning – you need to explain Comment by DrG: Cite your source Comment by DrG: Review all directions Comment by DrG: Find a peer-reviewed research study that addresses the theory or treatment of phobias that was published after 1990. Summarize the methods used and the conclusions made, and describe the key aspects of the research that reflect behaviorist principles.

Beehavioral Change
Humans are unique and complex beings who have to keep up with a number of things to survive and coexist with others within a given environment. However, it is worth noting that people are usually different and not all behaviors portrayed by different individuals appeal to the society. Chunn (2002) argues that the best factor about human behaviors is that they can be changed and transformed to what the society considers as right. (Youngberg, 2004). The best way to achieve behavioral structuring and modeling is through defining the right paths of action to be followed in order to adopt the acceptable code of ethics. The best path could be self-driven or environmentally dictated. Behavioral change is a topic that has attracted a lot of attention from researchers and resulted into numerous publications with different ideas about the matter. There are countless theories about how one can achieve behavioral change. The purpose of this paper is to explore behavioral change and assess their effect and influence on my personal attributes.

Behavioral changes involve either starting something that never existed before or dumping the old doings that have always been part and parcel of one’s life. There are two theories of behavioral change that are more established; classical and operant conditioning. Hughes (1997) states that there are over seven billion people in the world, each person is unique in a way, and the key to transformation or significant changes is by experimenting ethically accepted traits and adopting the ones that best suit an individual. Hughes (1997) argues that one feature may work pretty well for one individual but turn out to be a total disaster for the next person There is no particular method in human life that works well for everyone, and the fact that a particular strategy does not work for you should be a reason to try something else and not consider oneself a failure. Diversity is the reason the world is accommodative to all people. Comment by DrG: See previous comments - you did not explain operant conditioning
Classical conditioning entails developing or conditioning a particular reflexive behavior by associating a neutral stimulus or agent with a naturally occurring one. With time and frequency of occurrences, the neutral stimulus, on its own, will be able to trigger a reflex. Ivan Pavlov’s carried out an experiment to validate the authenticity of classical conditioning Egger, Pfaffermayr & Schmidt (2007). A demonstration by the Nobel Prize winner involved dogs, a bell, and food. Pavlov used to ring a bell (neutral stimulus) whenever food was ready. The dogs would salivate when they saw the food (reflex/ naturally occurring stimulus). With time, this became a habit. Whenever the food was ready the bell would ring and the dogs would salivate because it had become.

COLLAPSE
ABA Procedure: A DRO (differential reinforcement of other behavior) to address SIB exhibited by a toddler in a home setting.
Special Methods: Any appropriate behaviors other than SIB will be reinforced through a specific amount of time (every five minutes). Reinforcement is only given when the individual does not engage in SIB behaviors.
Risks
Notes
1 Implementing the plan at home can be difficult.
1 The family might be concerned with their safety and the safety of the child. There should be a protocol before implementing this intervention.
2 Family members and client could be at risk for danger.
2 The parents might be concerned for the safety of themselves and their child.
3 Possible increase in SIB
3 SIB behaviors might increase before it decreases due to an extinction burst. The behavior analyst should have a protocol before implementing this intervention.
4 SIB behaviors could remain the same.
4 If there is no change in the clients SIB behaviors then a preference test should be conducted to determine motivating reinfoncers.
Benefits
Notes
1 Generalization
1 The client will learn to use this skill at home as well as be able generalize this skill into other settings.
2 Improved learning environment
2 SIB behaviors will decrease and appropriate behavior will be taught. SIB will no longer impact the client and family in the future.
3 Increase in appropriate behaviors
3 Appropriate behaviors will be taught and replace the SIB behavior.
4 Least intrusive intervention
4 Using reinforcement to decrease the problem behavior and increase appropriate behaviors. This is a least restrictive method of treatment.
5 Parent training and involvement
5 Parents will feel confident about implementing this evidence based treatment at home. This will can lead to an increase a buy in from the family and they will feel comfortable implementing other interventions in the future.
Summary: DRO is an intervention that is used when the client does not engage in the problem behavior (SIB) (Bailey & Burch, 2016). Reinforcement should only be given to the individual after a certain amount of time that the client is not engaging in the problem behavior; in this case it should be after five minutes of the client not engaging in SIB. The person who is implementing this treatment should not reinforce the problem behavior. The benefits of implementing DRO outweigh the risks of implementing DRO. DRO is a good intervention to use when decreasing SIB behavior. Although there are some risks, the individual who is implementing DRO should have the knowledge, training and experience and be confident when implementing DRO ( Bailey & Burch, 2016).

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. ABA as the treatment of choice Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is the only scientifically validated treatment for autism and is recommended by the U.S. Surgeon General. 2 Dr. Terrasi 2010
3. Applied Behavior Analysis(ABA) Definition “Applied behavior analysis is the science in which procedures derived from the principles of behavior are systematically applied to improve socially significant behavior.” (Cooper, Heron, and Heward) 3 Dr. Terrasi 2010
4. Basic Principles of ABA Behavior is defined in objective and measurable terms Examines the functional relationship between behavior and its controlling variables Analyzes socially significant behavior in need of improvement Analyzes behavior through a three term contingency (Module 1) 4 Dr. Terrasi 2010
5. The next slide provides examples of the three term contingency. Note how significant MOTIVATION is! 5 Dr. Terrasi 2010
6. Three Term Contingency Antecedent-- Behavior— Consequences “Touch nose”- Child touches nose- receives piece of cookie “Do Puzzle”- Child falls to floor- Demand withdrawn 6 Dr. Terrasi 2010
7. You use the principles ofABA all day long! ABA is used to: Increase positive behaviors such as language, manners, self care and academic skills. 2. Decrease negative behaviors such as tantrums, biting, kicking and crying. 7 Dr. Terrasi 2010
8. $1000 Activity Think of a child you know with challenging behaviors: If I gave you $1000 for that child to have a “good day” with little to no problem behavior, what would you do? 8 Dr. Terrasi 2010
9. Pick one or two targetbehaviors Select the target behavior to be reduced by examining… a. The seriousness of the behavior…target behaviors that are self injurious or could injure others before….behaviors such as eye contact or not paying attention. b. The frequency of the behavior 9 Dr. Terrasi 2010
10. Define Setting Event Aspects of a person’s environment or daily routine that do not necessarily occur immediately before the behavior. – Medication Change – Medical problems (bladder infection, rash, sick) – Sleep problems – Number of people in room – Daily schedule -how predictable -how much choice does the child have 10 Dr. Terrasi 2010
11. Immediate Antecedents What triggered the behavior? What happened IMMEDIATELY before the problem behavior started? - told child no - desired activity was terminated 11 Dr. Terrasi 2010
12. Using the principles ofABA to reduce problembehavior Be SPECIFIC when you define the target behavior! Not SpecificSpecific Kicks Kicks feet against the chair. Irritable Bites his forearm. Frustrated Hits his head with his fist. 12 Dr. Terrasi 2010
13. The C= Consequences Reinforcement - A consequence that results in increasing or maintaining the future rate of the behavior it follows. Punishment - A consequence that results in decreasing the future rate of the behavior it follows. 13 Dr. Terrasi 2010
14. Consequences Any behavior that occurs repeatedly is serving some useful function and producing some type of reinforcement! 14 Dr. Terrasi 2010
15. Consequences After a behavior has occurred the environment can change in several ways: 15 Dr. Terrasi 2010
16. Consequences 1. A neutral event can happen: if nothing happens that is relevant, the consequence will likely have no effect on the behavior. 2. Things can get better: if things get better, the behavior will likely occur again under similar conditions. This is called reinforcement. 3. Things can get worse: if things get worse, the behavior will likely not occur again under similar conditions. This is called punishment. 16 Dr. Terrasi 2010
17. Things Get Better:Reinforcement Reinforcement is a change in the environment following a behavior that increases the future probability of that behavior under similar circumstances. 17 Dr. Terrasi 2010
18. Things Get Worse:Punishment When things get worse following a behavior, the behavior is less likely to occur in the future under similar circumstances. This is punishment. 18 Dr. Terrasi 2010
19. Remember Reinforcement (even negative reinforcement) increases behavior so Reinforce behaviors you WANT! Punishment decreases the likelihood of behavior so Punish behaviors you DON’T WANT! 19 Dr. Terrasi 2010
20. Is Time Out a Reinforcement or a Punishment? Need to look whether time out is increasing or decreasing the frequency of the target behavior. Most people think Time Out is a punisher but it functions as a reinforcement for many children. 20 Dr. Terrasi 2010
21. ABC Data Without taking baseline data to identify the Antecedent, Behavior and Consequence (Module One), it isn’t wise to implement a behavior reduction program. 21 Dr. Terrasi 2010
22. Functions of ProblemBehavior To obtain something desirable such as: Attention, Tangibles, Sensory Stimulation. To avoid or escape something undesirable such as Task avoidance. 22 Dr. Terrasi 2010
23. Functions of ProblemBehavior To obtain something desirable such as: Attention, Tangibles, Sensory Stimulation. To avoid or escape something undesirable such as Task avoidance. 23 Dr. Terrasi 2010
