Self Management Paper
This cumulative assignment allows you to consider everything you have learned over the past 5 weeks and attempt to change a behavior of your own. This overall process is similar to what a board-certified behavior analyst would complete with a new client.
Refer to the approved behavior you would like to change based on your submission to your instructor in Week 2.
Track baseline data over a 3-day period using the
Baseline Data Worksheet
.
Write a 1,400- to 1,750-word paper that outlines an intervention plan for changing that behavior, and ensure you:
- Describe the target behavior.
- Outline the dimensions of measurement/baseline measurement.
- Describe the function of the baseline behavior.
- Outline the goals of the behavioral change.
- Propose a behavior intervention plan based on goals.
- Provide a minimum of 2 antecedent changes.
- Provide 4 to 5 consequence modifications.
- Choose consequences based on at least 4 of the following:
- Positive reinforcement
- Negative reinforcement
- Negative punishment
- Positive punishment
- Extinction
- Describe any potential barriers to treatment as well as how you would overcome these barriers.
- Describe the expected outcome if the behavior intervention plan was implemented and followed.
Format your paper according to APA guidelines.

****TOPIC*** please write this paper based on the information below**
***** Please Fill out the worksheet with proper information****
I Personally struggle with getting enough rest on a daily basis, it gets bad enough where I feel myself dozing off during a movie or doing regular activities. For this project I would like to try improving my sleep patterns every night for to help function better and for health reasons, in order to do so I will measure how many hours I sleep at night using an app provided with my phone. Currently I get about 4 to 5 hours of sleep each night which is considered to be my variable interval and my goal is to get to at least 8 hours of sleep every night. I would start off by setting a specific bedtime 10pm to get a fixed schedule try going to bed a half an hour earlier each night to work my way up to 8 hours for the first 3 to 4days, I would record data collected by writing down my bed time and awake time. My hopes are to achieve more sleep, better brain function, less tiredness and boost my energy by getting more sleep.
