Description:

This course, designed for graduate students, delves into the methodology used to conduct experiments in applied behavior analysis (ABA). Students will gain an understanding of applied behavior analysis, and how this approach can be used to change socially significant behavior for individuals with and without disabilities. Students will be guided in understanding the strategies and tactics for arranging experimental conditions, how single-subject designs are implemented, how experimental control is demonstrated, and the conditions under which each would be most appropriate. When serving as editorial board members on peer-refereed journals, individuals will be required to evaluate research articles employing a variety of research methods. This course will equip students to (a) identify the key components of a single-subject study, (b) evaluate the study components in terms of quality, and (c) provide an unbiased review of the article with specific suggestions for improvements.
