Last year, Mary-Ellen’s parents brought home a dog. Mary-Ellen was initially excited, but the dog was big and scary. Mary-Ellen froze every time the dog entered the room and she jumped every time the dog barked. Noticing that she feared the dog, Mary-Ellen’s parents put the dog out in the backyard and it is no longer allowed in the house. Now, Mary-Ellen can move around the house but she avoids going near the back door and does not enter the backyard. Mary-Ellen has become more used to the dog but has noticed that she is feeling more tired and has frequent colds. Question 1 Which of the following represents part of Mary-Ellen’s initial stress response when the dog was brought home? A. increased digestion B. constricted pupils C. decreased cortisol levels D. increased muscle tension

2‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‌‌‌‍‍‍‌‌‌‌‍ assignments, seperate but go hand in hand annotated bilbiography: (10 sources, citations, and annotations) Annotated bibliography will be include ten sources that you are considering using in the Proposal Argument. The sources will be formatted using MLA or APA citation style and will consist of @200 word annotations for each source. 

Submit a paper that addresses the following:  (format your paper with the underlined titles in bold.)
Part 1 – My Own Norms – Consider your own values on how you should clean your house.  Describe your personal norm for cleaning your house.  I’m looking for the actual amount of time, attention, and detail you feel is normal in regard to cleaning.
Part 2 – My Perceptions of Abnormal – Compared to what YOU consider normal, what would you consider abnormal?  I’m looking for how much time, attention, and detail, would seem abnormal to YOU.
Part 3 – Societal/Cultural Values – Values about cleaning and cleanliness are a part of every society.  Describe the details and sources of information on what is normal and abnormal cleaning in your culture.
Part 4 – Impact of Abnormal Behavior – If a person engaged in behavior that was considered abnormal (too much or too little), describe the ways in which that may (or may not) interfere with that person’s functioning in their world.  (“Function” usually refers to the capacity someone has to engage in activities of daily living, forming and sustaining relationships, work, manage money, participate in civic events, and other regular activities.)

tudents will conduct a brief ABC Observation on a chosen student. Based on the information they will construct an FBA and develop a BIP.

FBA – BIP
The Functional Behavioral Assessment and the Behavior Intervention Plan are formal ways for parents, teachers, and other school professionals to work collaboratively to determine the best way to help a student behaviorally. Students with misbehavior that are unsuccessful with typical behavior supports or the school-wide discipline plan, may need extra support. A student who is disruptive, consistently off task, aggressive, or exhibit any number of behavioral problems may benefit from these plans. This process may consist of two separate meetings or one long meeting. However, they are more effective when utilized as a two step process.
The first portion of this process is the Functional Behavioral Assessment (FBA). It is intended to be a problem solving process used to define the misbehavior and determine the function of a student’s behavior. During the FBA the problem behavior will be clearly defined, including the severity and frequency. Much of the FBA is a formal brainstorming session, where participants attempt to determine the precursors to the misbehavior. In addition to “How is the student misbehaving,” it is a time to answer the question, “Why is the student misbehaving.” Participants should come to the meeting prepared to discuss times when there is not a disciple problem, and what occurs to make those times more positive. They should also be ready to discuss what occurs prior to the misbehavior to cause it.
Once the behaviors have been clearly identified through the FBA, as well as the precursors to the behavior, the participants will formulate a Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP). The BIP is the actual plan created to help improve behavior. It is also a formal way to document interventions that are attempted. The plan must be specific and clearly stated, including the persons responsible for implementing interventions, rewards, or measurement of the intervention. Punishment should not be the only method used to address misbehavior. The interventions should focus on teaching the student new skills. Interventions may focus on teaching the student more acceptable behavior, modifying the classroom setting or curriculum, or modify the antecedent events. It may also introduce a behavioral intervention that uses reinforcements.
The Functional Behavioral Assessment and the Behavior Intervention Plan can be used for students in Special Education and it can be used for regular education students. However, there are not laws requiring a school to complete an FBA or a BIP on regular education students. Schools often see the effectiveness of the plans on Special Education Students and want to use them with Regular Education students as well. When an FBA or BIP is conducted regarding a student classified as a Special Education Student, it is a function of the IEP committee.

Using the same scenario you used in Part I and II of this project, you will now present your findings to your company or clinic staff, including CEOs (think about your audience).
Part A:
Provide a response to the following prompts.
Imagine your research team has been tasked with finding the correlation of 2 variables from your scenario. The data below includes 4 research participants’ data for variable 1 (high scores mean better of variable 1) and data for variable 2 (high scores mean more of the variable). The scores are as follows:
Person
Variable 1
Variable 2
1
1
10
2
1
8
3
2
4
4
4
-2
Describe the process your research team would go through by completing the following:
Create a scatter diagram of the scores.
Describe in words the general pattern of correlation, if any.
Figure the correlation coefficient.
Explain the logic of what you have done, writing as if you are speaking to someone who has never heard of correlation (but who does understand the mean, standard deviation, Z scores, and hypothesis testing).
Provide 3 logically possible directions of causality, indicating for each direction whether it is a reasonable explanation for the correlation based on the variables involved. Explain your answer.
Part B:
Assume your research is complete and you have written your research article. Now it’s time to make a public presentation for your company/clinic.
Consider your audience and the language you will need to use to make this presentation clear for all participants.
Create a 10- to 12-slide Microsoft PowerPoint presentation (cover slides and references do not count in this number) using the information you gathered and submitted in Parts I and II.
Include the following in your presentation:
Describe the problem and provide some brief background information about the situation.
Explain the research hypothesis.
Describe your sample and your sampling method.
Explain the 4 steps of the research process you followed.
Define the critical value and the test statistic your analysis provided.
Include your scatterplot and correlation findings from Part A.
Provide the main finding of the study. What did you prove or fail to prove?
Provide recommendations based on your findings.
Each slide must have 4 to 5 bullet points with 4 to 5 words for each point plus speaker notes. The bulk of your explanation will go in the speaker notes. This is where you will write and put what you would say when giving this presentation to your audience. This is an academic presentation; therefore, keep the bells and whistles to a minimum and make this a clean, professional-looking presentation. It is a visual presentation, so tasteful and related images are appropriate.
Format any citations in your presentation according to APA guidelines. Also, if photos are used, they need to be referenced according to APA guidelines.

Research Title:
“Evaluating the Effectiveness of Programs in Prison on Reducing Recidivism Rates Among Incarcerated Individuals This project will not be carried out.
will conduct a brief literature review related to a topic in behavior analysis that interests them. will summarize the literature in 2-3 pages, and will propose a mock research study based on the literature review. no ai use submissions will be reviewed by plagiarism software. The method section of the research paper should contain a description of all relevant sections of a manuscript.
You are designing a study that can be carried out. I will upload 5 sources I have located
