How Learning Environment Shapes Personality

How Learning Environment Shapes Personality

Prior to beginning work on this discussion, read the webpage for the Behavior Analyst Certification Board (BACB), the  Harvey, Luiselli, & Wong, (2009) article, and review the APA’s Ethical principles of psychologists and code of conduct required for this week.
In your initial post:

 

  • Applied behavior analysis is a rapidly growing area of learning psychology. Based on the information in the required web page and article, describe what you think it would be like to be an applied behavior analyst is a school setting.
  • Analyze and describe how the APA’s Ethical principles of psychologists and code of conduct might affect the implementation of behavior modification principles.
  • Examine the behavioral analysis approach to personality psychology and discuss whether personality shapes behavior or behavior shapes personality. Use evidence from the resources to support your statements.
  • Evaluate the cultural implications of addressing and treating mental health issues in standardized school settings.
  • Describe the benefits this type of approach might have for students.

Answer Preview:

Considering the provisions offered by Behavior Analyst Certification Board, Inc. (BACB) (2016), I believe that being an applied behavior analyst would require my full credentialing on either national behavior analysts standards to practice the profession in local schools, or international standards to practice the services in schools within international level.
