For this assignment, you will construct a hypothetical (or actual) single-case experimental design (SCED) study that will be used to create a scholarly poster presentation. Choose one of the scenario options

For this assignment, you will construct a hypothetical (or actual) single-case experimental design (SCED) study that will be used to create a scholarly poster presentation. Choose one of the scenario options to construct your SCED and use the Unit 9 Assignment Planning Template to organize the elements for your study. Alternatively, you may use a client you are currently working with; however, be sure that has been discussed with your instructor by the end of Unit 3 so that you can get specific guidance on the process.

Begin by conducting research and finding at least three peer-reviewed academic sources that provide an evidence-based analysis of the specific intervention that will be used to support the target behavior you will focus on for your client. Then, use the Unit 9 Assignment Template to build your poster presentation and use Kaltura Capture to record a 5-minute video presentation of your poster. Please read the assignment requirements for details on the guidelines and expectations.

Please include the following:

• Study title
  • Provide a title for your study that reflects the dependent/independent variables and the subjects. For example: Use of Non-Contingent Reinforcement on the Perpetual Squawking of a Parrot with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
• Introduction
  • Provide a rationale for why you chose this study, based on the literature that you reviewed. What makes your study a unique contribution to the field?
  • Include your research statement phrased as: “The purpose of this study is to….”
    • Be sure that it is clear what your study is looking to investigate or prove, and that both the independent and dependent variables are in your research statement.
• Methods/materials
  • Include information on the participant(s), setting(s), materials, dependent variable, and procedures used in your study. Be sure to identify the experimental design you selected.
• Results
  • Include a graphical representation of the data (hypothetical for the case study or actual if you are using a client) that meets ABA conventions for the selected graph(s).
    • Do not copy and paste any data or graphs from outside sources.
  • Provide a brief summary of the results.
• Discussion
  • Summarize the effectiveness and discuss the limitations of your study.
    • Consider the pros and cons of the experimental design, the number of participants, the lack of generality, etc.

PowerPoint should include the following elements:

• Content: Answer all the questions, reflecting appropriate personal and professional insights.
  • The assignment must be written in Standard English and demonstrate superior organization, including a highly developed viewpoint and purpose. Your responses should reflect professional writing standards, using proper tone and language. The writing and writing style should be correct, accurate, and reflect knowledge of skills and practice in applied behavior analysis.
  • Presentations are visual; therefore, use clear, concise bullet points and avoid crowded slides. You may include the use of graphics and SmartArt to streamline information in a memorable manner. Additionally, images and diagrams are wonderful presentation tools, but be sure to include all required citations.

Your annotated bibliography should include the following elements:

• Sources listed in current APA format.
• Include a minimum of three scholarly or academic sources to support your responses and conclusions.
• Use Arial or Times New Roman 12-point font.
• Use current APA formatting and citation style.

• rationale of why the chosen design is appropriate for the study
• assessment of the advantages, disadvantages, and limitations of the chosen experimental design
• discussion of reliability and validity of the experimental design and the data
• a visual analysis of data of the within- and between-condition effects of the experimental design, including:
  • a comparison of level, trend, and immediacy of effect
  • a discussion of variability or stability of data within a condition
  • a discussion of the percentage of non-overlapping data (PND) with reference to the overall effectiveness of the intervention
