someone answered this question previously and unfortunately their answer is incorrect as they used "overthinking" as a behavior and that is not correct so please DO NOT COPY AND PASTE FROM THE PREVIOUS ANSWER. OVERTHINKING IS NOT A BEHAVIOR. THANK YOU FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING.
You will utilize applied behavioral analysis principles to understand more about your own behavior. You will select a behavior of your choice that you desire to change for yourself. You’ll define the antecedents and consequences that reinforce your behavior and describe how you would alter the environment with the goal of changing your behavior. You will then write a paper applying behavioral concepts to your experience.
Detailed Instructions:
Select a behavior of your choice that you desire to change for yourself. Clearly describe and define the problematic behavior.
Assess the impact your chosen behavior has on your quality of life. In what ways does the behavior help and hurt you? (you must address both how it helps and how it hurts)
Consider how your behavior is shaped by the environment. Describe the antecedents and consequences that reinforce your behavior.
Determine and clearly describe the frequency and duration of your chosen behavior. How often is the behavior happening? How long in your life has it been happening?
Clearly articulate what behaviors you'd like to increase, and what you'd like to decrease.
Identify realistic outcomes that are likely if you make new actions and decrease your problematic behavior. Do the new actions seem realistic doable? If not, consider different new actions that are more likely to be successful. Write about all possible new behaviors you consider and their related plausible outcomes.
Describe in detail what schedule of reinforcement you could use to reinforce the behavior you'd like to increase.
Discuss any challenges that could arise if you were to carry out this behavior change. What you could do you to desensitize or extinguish those challenges?
Reflect and discuss what you learned from this process that could be applicable to other desired behavior changes in your life.
