Review the literature on the Good Behavior Game (GBG), focusing on its historical development, fundamental principles, empirical evidence of its effectiveness, implementation variations, and impact on various populations. Then, write a paper summarizing and synthesizing your findings in at least ten pages, excluding the title page and references.

 

You must find at least ten articles from the peer-reviewed literature on your chosen topic. At least seven of these articles must be experimental studies, preferably employing single-case designs, although group designs are permitted. If group design studies are used, they should be at most two articles. Most articles should come from behavior-analytic journals, although non-behavior-analytic, peer-reviewed journals are acceptable. Additionally, you can use non-peer-reviewed sources (e.g., information from websites) besides your ten peer-reviewed sources; however, no more than two non-peer-reviewed sources are permitted. Please DO NOT use unpublished thesis or dissertation papers.

Research in Developmental DisabilitiesYou are to develop an outline for your topic paper. A complete outline includes the general structure of the paper, the central points or themes that will be included, the content that will be covered under each central point or theme, and the references that correspond to the content. I’ve included an example outline below. However, your outline can look different.

 

Introduction

 

A general statement about why the topic is important (i.e., the problem) (e.g., increasing reports of disruptive challenging behaviors in public schools).

 

Evidence from the literature (citation; e.g., “Author1 & Author2 (YEAR) found that the problem causes [some problem]”).

 

Additional evidence from the literature (citation; e.g., “Author3 et al., (YEAR) reported that [another statement validating that the problem is a problem]”).

 

A general introduction to the paper’s topic (e.g., [description of the intervention]).

 

Evidence from the literature (citation; e.g., “Author4 et al., (YEAR) found that behavior contracts [did something good]”).

 

Additional evidence from the literature (citation; e.g., “Author5 et al., (YEAR) reported that [another statement validating that the intervention helps solve the problem]”).

 

Or maybe, (citation, e.g., “Author6 & Author7 found that the intervention’s effects might be overstated due to [some finding]”).
