Topic 1 of 1<\/strong><\/p>\n For the first part of this Discussion, you will focus on target behaviors. A target behavior is a behavior you want to change in your client.

Referring to the reading in Chapter 3 of your Applied Behavior Analysis<\/i> text, think about a behavior in yourself or someone else that you wish to change.<\/p>\n 1. Write a clear topographical definition of the target behavior. Do not forget to use the three guidelines mentioned in your book.<\/p>\n When responding to your classmates, use the target behavior definition \u201ctest\u201d criteria to provide constructive feedback.<\/p>\n Sometimes, a biological or genetic factor can be present in your client that can affect how you should address a target behavior. Next, using the target behavior you identified in the first part of the Discussion:<\/p>\n 2.

Respond to the following:<\/p>\n 3. Why is objective measurement of behavior critical in the science and practice of behavior analysis?<\/p>\n 4. Refer to Table 4.1 in Chapter 4 and pick one type of measurement. Briefly define the measurement you selected.<\/p>\n 5. Identify and describe a unique example of when you would select the measurement defined.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" post should be at least 300\u2013350 words in length and should extend the discussion of the group supported by your course materials and\/or other appropriate resources.
