For this Assignment, select a scholarly peer-reviewed research article where behavior analytic methods were used to maintain a behavior change over time.

For this paper, provide the following details:

A brief description of the training and generalization environments
A clear description of the target behavior(s)
The subject(s) used and any important ethical, social, or cultural considerations
The method(s) of behavior change that was used described in behavior analytic terms
How the researchers planned for the maintenance of the behavior change over time when designing their plan
Whether or not the intervention was effective in maintaining the behavior change
Weaknesses in the plan with the maintenance of behavior changes as your focus
At least three suggestions for improvements using behavior analytic terms, based on your readings and discussions this week
Proper references to the text and other scholarly sources of information as needed, with a minimum of at least three sources provided.
APA style throughout, including a title page, in-text citations, and a full reference page.

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
