Research
Identify an individual or group of individuals with whom to implement a single-system intervention and evaluation. During the course of the semester, implement an intervention with this individual or group to help change an identified behavior. This will involve identifying:
· a target goal, which you will describe in the case plan;
· the behavior(s) associated with the target goal that the proposed intervention is attempting to change;
· the intervention designed to help promote behavior change;
· the measure(s) used to assess the desired behavior change; and
· the means by which you will collect data about the change.
For example:
· your partner wants to lose weight – this is a target goal
· your partner wants to increase physical activity – this is the behavior(s) associated with the target goal that the proposed intervention is attempting to change
· your partner will park in a more distant parking lot at work to walk more – the intervention designed to help promote behavior change;
· # of steps taken daily – the measure(s) used to assess the desired behavior change; and
· Fitbit activity tracker or pedometer – the means by which you will collect data about the change
As you implement the intervention, write a paper documenting the planned change and the results of the evaluation. Papers should be typed, double spaced, using 1-inch margins, 12 point Times New Roman font. Title and reference pages are required. Follow current APA style guidelines. The paper (not including title and reference pages) should be 4 pages.
