LITERATURE REVIEW Overview The treatment plans you develop as a behavior analyst

LITERATURE REVIEW
Overview
The treatment plans you develop as a behavior analyst must be evidence based. This assignment will give you the chance to explore and uncover a wide range of research-based interventions that will help you build your treatment plan. What types of behavior analytic interventions have been effective in addressing the challenging behavior? What are the theoretical underpinnings, basic concepts, and principles involved in these interventions? A firm grasp of fundamental concepts is needed to thoroughly understand the behavioral research that enables analysis of ABA case studies and real-life scenarios. Please refer to What Is the Literature Review? on Campus for a refresher on how to be a skilled researcher.
Instructions
Your assignment comprises two parts. Use the following subheadings, formatted in current APA style, to organize your assignment:
Introduction
In one paragraph, provide an overview of your plan for researching strategies for your individual case. At a minimum, it must restate the following from the Week 2 assignment:
Behavioral challenge, function of the behavior challenge, and outcome criteria identified.
Social significance of the target behavior and outcome criteria in your case study.
Research-Based Interventions
This section (7–8 pages) will consist of your evaluation of the literature you compiled. In this evaluation, you will identify, describe, and synthesize studies within categories of strategies as described below.
Antecedent-Based Strategies
Identify and describe three behavior analytic studies to support your antecedent-based strategies. At least one study will directly support the intervention you are using.
Synthesize the three studies.
Identify common, relevant ABA concepts, principles, and methods used in the studies and explain how they can be used to modify the behavior identified in your case study.
Explain whether the interventions in the studies can be considered compassionate and least intrusive.
Make sure to also address the external and internal validity of these studies. For example, did the intervention show a socially significant impact on the behavior? Did the study demonstrate generalization of the behavior change?
Compare the similarities and differences between the interventions in the studies.
Consequence-Based Strategies
Identify and describe three behavior analytic studies to support your consequence-based strategies. At least one study will directly support the intervention you are using.
Synthesize the three studies.
Identify common, relevant ABA concepts, principles, and methods used in the studies and explain how they can be used to modify the behavior identified in your case study.
Explain whether the interventions in the studies can be considered compassionate and least intrusive.
Make sure to also address the external and internal validity of these studies. For example, did the intervention show a socially significant impact on the behavior? Did the study demonstrate generalization of the behavior change?
Compare the similarities and differences between the interventions in the studies.
Replacement-Based Strategies
Identify and describe three behavior analytic studies to support your replacement-based strategies. At least one study will directly support the intervention you are using.
Synthesize the three studies.
Identify common, relevant ABA concepts, principles, and methods used in the studies and explain how they can be used to modify the behavior identified in your case study.
Explain whether the interventions in the studies can be considered compassionate and least intrusive.
Make sure to also address the external and internal validity of these studies. For example, did the intervention show a socially significant impact on the behavior? Did the study demonstrate generalization of the behavior change?
Compare the similarities and differences between the interventions in the studies.
Conclusion
In 1–2 paragraphs, provide a general summation of the interventions identified in your paper. Identify which antecedent-based, consequence-based, and replacement-based interventions you intend to use in your Intervention Support Plan. Explain how they are supported by the research you found. In addition, explain why it is important to use research-based interventions when creating a treatment plan.
