Increasing a Desired Behavior Sustained Walking

ID participant Barb- stressed out mature woman Health episode derailed exercise Anxious to resume activity levels

ID and Define a Target Behavior Sustained walking Increase from a mere 10 minutes without fatigue to 60 minutes of vigorous activity Trail or Treadmill? Incentive? Antecedent?

The Trail - About 2 Miles

Technique to Measure Duration To increase time spent engaged in meaningful activity Will record minutes per day Goal: To increase each days minutes spent walking by 5 minutes to reach goal of 60 minutes of sustained walking

Antecedent Or, the incentive to move! What can be done to insure that the behavior will occur? Yoga! 15 minutes of daily stretching Also serves as the reinforcer- the more you move, the more you can move.

Barb’s Walking Log Mon June 16 Time Spent Walking 10 Tues June Wed.June 18 0 Thurs. June Fri.June 20 0 Sat.June SunJune MEAN 18.5 Min. GRAPH DATA POINTS – 7

Intervention: Premack Principal Yoga stretches Independent Variable

Report Occurrence of Target Behavior Behavior recorded for two weeks after intervention Walking Increased incrementally daily Mean of Target Behavior after intervention– 25.6 minutes Graph Data Points for Behavior after intervention - 15

Design of intervention AB Design chosen for speed and fast results Only 2 phases- baseline and intervention ABAB would have established functional relationship between dependent and independent variables. ABAB gives more descriptive and predictive information.

What could go Wrong? Selected inappropriate design Unable to establish functional relationship Unable to be replicated Trendline too varied Too much variability 100% overlap Intervention and independent variable is also the reinforcer??? What was I thinking?

What Went Right? Quick Results Easy charting Behavior increased! Well Being increased! Learned recording, selecting and graphing intervention techniques

Was it a successful intervention? The data is insufficient to state that the intervention is the cause of the improved behavior. The Behavior improved.
