REVIEW THE LITERATURE

OVERVIEW- THE TARGET BEHAVIOR TO CHOOSE FROM: AGGRESSIVE PHYSICAL BEHAVIOR OR NAIL BITING OR NON-COMPLIANCE

Now that you have identified a behavior, population, and setting, you will start to review the literature related to that behavior. Applied behavior analysis (ABA) is an evidence-based practice, which means it’s important for practitioners to identify and recommend treatments that are based on evidence from research. This literature review will help you to identify research to support your decisions in later sections when writing your hypothetical behavior analytic study.

PREPARATION

  • Use the Capella Library to locate four recent (within the past 5–7 years) behavior analytic, single-subject design articles related to the behavior you selected in the last assignment.
  • Review the Literature Review Template [DOCX], which you will use to complete your assignment.
  • If you need help using the Capella library, review the Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) Research Guide.

INSTRUCTIONS

Complete a literature review to support your hypothetical behavior analytic study.

  • Provide the APA citations of the studies you found.
  • Identify the dependent variable in each study.
    • This should be your selected targeted behavior.
  • Describe the implementation of the independent variable.
  • Identify the single-subject design in each study.
  • Describe the data collection procedure and interobserver agreement (IOA) method used.
  • Describe the internal, external, and social validity of each study.
  • Describe the conclusions to each study, including the effectiveness of the interventions.

These are the elements you will be writing for your hypothetical behavior analytic study, so it is important to pay attention to the details so that you understand how to write and structure your assignments.

Note: Put the information from each article into your own words rather than using direct quotes from the literature.

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS

  • Written communication: Should be free of errors that detract from the overall message.
  • APA formatting: Use current APA style and formatting, paying particular attention to citations and references. Refer to Evidence and APA for citing and referencing tips.
  • Length: 6–8 pages.
  • References: A minimum of four scholarly or professional resources.
  • Font and font size: Times New Roman, 12 point.
  •  
  • SCORING GUIDE

Your work will be evaluated using this criteria.

Requirements: 7 pages   |   .doc file

Subject:  Psychology

  • Make sure you are using behavior analytic, single-subject design research.
  • Make sure you are using a study, not a meta-analysis or review.
  • Make sure the study is researching an intervention or intervention package explicitly relating to your target behavior (not only an assessment/FA).
  • Make sure you understand the differences between (and how to identify within the study) internal validity, external validity, and social validity.
  • Current studies: the last ten years only
