Roger is a 14 year old who has begun to skip classes in high school. His parents are at their "wit's end" and everyone else on his educational team recognizes that suspending Roger is not a viable option. The team believes that if Roger is encouraged with a cash reward (kept in an account by his parents who must approve any withdrawal or expenditure); he might be more likely to attend class. His
parents are in favor of the program and will provide the money. The contingencies are explained to Roger & he agrees to try the program. Roger's class skipping behavior drops dramatically with 3 weeks to a zero level. The team wishes to establish that the money is the key variable affecting Roger's change in his behavior. The parents are asked about the possibility of holding back Roger's cash award for a few days and then reinstating the reward to establish the functional relationship between zero rates of skipping class and the cash reward for attending class. The parents don't want to risk any possibility of Roger "backsliding" into his old ways and refuse to withhold the reward. What type of design did the team intend to use and what design ultimately was actually used? Both verbally state the designs and the letter notation for each design.
Three of the following students show warning signs of being at risk. Which student is least likely to be at risk?
a. Ann never stays after school for extracurricular activities, and she seems to have no friends at school. b. Barbara is so busy with student government, cheerleading, and varsity sports that her grades have gone from As to Cs and Ds. c. Carol is fourteen years old and still in sixth grade, so she has little in common with her classmates. d. Donna has gotten low achievement test scores since elementary school.
Mr. Hoffstetder says to his class, "Okay, we're ready to start the next activity. Clear away everything on your desks, then get your textbooks, notebooks, and pencils out.". As he gives the students a moment to comply, Mrs. Hoffstetder says, "I see that Yanika is ready- thank you, Yanika. Ah, now Marcel is ready, and Jonathan, and Sylvan.". Mr. Hoffstetder's banter is
a. ineffective, because it is a distraction to the students, who will likely be focusing on his words rather than what they are supposed to be doing. b. ineffective, because Mr. Hoffstetder doesn't have time to recognize every student who complies, and this could lead to hurt feelings. c. effective, because it helps build positive feelings among class members. d. effective, because it is a means of praising compliant students while redirecting behavior of students who aren't prompt in following instructions.
