The intervention will consist of a pretest-posttest randomized experimental group design. This design will consist of 2 experimental groups. One group will receive the Applied Behavior Analysis treatment and the other group will receive the Early Start Denver Model assessment. The dependent variable and outcomes will be social behavior symptoms and the independent variable outcomes will be the intervention treatment (ABA or ESDM) that the child receives. A repeated measure ANOVA will be used for data analysis on this study. Through the repeated measure ANOVA the P-value is looked at to determine significance of effectiveness on the social behavior symptoms of the autistic child. Although the p-value is a very important indicator of significance, …show more content…

At one time (pre-test time), both ABA and ESDM groups reported similar score levels of social behavior symptoms through the CARS assessment test; however at time point two (post-test time) even though both groups saw a decrease in score the level and amount of decrease in CARS assessment score for the ESDM group (difference in score of 10) was significantly greater than the very slim (difference in score of 2) decrease in score that occurred in the ABA …show more content…

While the Applied Behavior Analysis therapy does also make improvements in social behavior symptoms, it is not the recommended therapy through this research study. With the ESDM model children are able to benefit more from the social interaction they receive from both their certified clinician and their parent. Children are able to learn from the comfort of their home, rather than out of place in a clinic where it might be hard to focus and pay attention to the therapy. Parents should keep in mind that ESDM also incorporates ABA therapy into the program plan. Enrolling their autistic child into an ESDM program will help to maximize the benefits of early intervention therapy which will then lead to maximized results and a larger decrease in social behavior symptoms that are usually seen and typical to the autistic

MHS 240: Fundamentals of Applied Behavior Analysis. This course will examine the principles of learning theories, behavior theories, and procedures related to modifying existing behaviors and acquiring new behaviors. The course will also provide a basic understanding of a functional behavior assessment (FBA). After completion of this course, students will have a comprehensive understanding of behavior modification techniques (e.g., reinforcement, punishment, extinction, discrimination training, generalization, shaping, classical condition, conditioned reinforcement, schedule reinforcement), an understanding of what maintains challenging behaviors, and its application in the field of mental health, primary care, and behavioral analysis. * MHS

Oscar is a twelve year old student with autism in seventh grade at Marcy Open School. He receives extra academic and social support at an Autism Spectrum Disorder resource room. The behavior I will focus on for this data collection is anytime Oscar displays being off task. This is any time the student is not looking at the teacher or material, or task to which the teacher is referring to. Also, when students lips are not zipped (meaning, the student is not quite, and following group directions).

Since the early 1960s, autistic children have been the subject when it comes to studies for applied behavior analytic (ABA) treatment (Smith & Antolovich, 2000). Autistic children who participate in ABA treatment also receive numerous types of programs (Smith & Antolovich, 2000). For instance, children take part in speech, sensorimotor integration, play therapy and etc (Smith & Antolovich, 2000). These interventions may complement behavior analytic treatment by enhancing children's skills or reducing maladaptive behaviors that hinder children's progress, such as aggression or stereotypes (Smith & Antolovich, 2000). The researchers try to limit the use of this treatment that by turning their limited resources into interventions that can be harmful or not very effective (Smith & Antolovich, 2000).

The goals of behavior analysis as a science are to understand and explain behavior, predict behavior, and control behavior. These goals are achieved through the systematic observation and measurement of behavior, and the identification of functional relationships between behavior and its environmental variables. Also, the development and the application of effective interventions that are based upon the principles of behavior analysis (Cooper et al, 2020). To implement ABA goals into my professional work, I will consistently apply the principles of behavior analysis in my assessments, interventions, and my evaluations. I will also use data collection and analysis to inform the decision-making and use collaboration with clients, families, and

After observing the clients behavior, it is evident that she has a problem limiting her excessive cellular device usage. Therefore, the behavioral intervention plan will be targeting the client’s cellular device usage in class, as well as outside of class. The plan will be targeting all cellular device usage, which includes playing games, texting, scrolling though social media sites, and finally listening to music. To prevent the client from using her phone during lectures, the behavioral plan instructed her professors to make her write an essay whenever she is using her phone.

It is important to begin the training by teaching peers to recognize and appreciate individual differences. Next, review the specific target behaviors that are used to facilitate social interactions, such as initiating interactions, responding to initiations, keeping an interaction going, giving/accepting compliments, helping others/asking for help, and including others in activities. In addition, a list of prompts, scripts and role plays for peers to promote social interactions should be developed. Baseline data should also be collected during this planning phase through direct observation of the student with ASD. After all antecedent supports are in place, peers must be assigned to the learner with ASD and there must be at least one regular 15-minute interaction between the peer and learner on a daily basis.
