For this extended assignment I have chosen to look at how behaviour may affect children's or young people's development. Negative behaviour can be seen when the children's and young people's needs are not being met such as lack of sleep and when they are hungry. Difficult behaviour can be caused by a trauma or a crisis that has happened in the child's life. Children may show this kind of behaviour because they want to be the centre of attention or if they are not getting their own way and they may behave inappropriately in order to get their own way. Other examples that could affect children's behaviour include if a member of the family in the child's life such as mother or father has left and they may think that it's their fault .Also…

PBIS or Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports, is an outline of techniques to increase positive behaviors which in turn will enhance academics. PBIS is focused on research based and data driven procedures that rewards students for positive behavior choices. PBIS systems have been researched and improved on since its establishment in the 1980’s. In the 1980’s, researchers at the University of Oregon realized that there was an enormous need for a different behavioral program for children with behavioral disorders.…
Behavior modification program: The behavioral modification program would include a printed chart in which a customized list of desired social skills, family interactions, behaviors and chores that would have to be completed by the child each day to earn credits. Every evening the child will collect the number of credits he/she has earned for the day for positive behaviors and interactions with others. Each positive behavior will be worth a certain amount of credit that is appropriate for the behavior. Negative behaviors will require a small percentage of credits earned to be docked according the level of negative behavior exhibited. There will be a second chart in which the child will be able to spend his/her credits on items that are not a…
They understand and act according to the situation in a better fashion and learn to adjust better. ● Positive reinforcement ● Eye contact ● inculcating optimism When your child misbehaves, get down to their level and converse with direct eye contact. Do not grab them or pull them. This would make them more violent and adamant and paint a shabby picture of you as a parent.…

First she identifies the behavior that needs to be corrected. Then she did an ABC analysis of her husband’s behavior. And find out that which events or situation cause her husband to start cursing a lot. She finds out that because his husband was in the Army and people curse a lot in that lifestyle.…
Interventions in early childhood are more effective than interventions with older school-age children (Shaw et al., 2003). Brain development is still occurring and new neuron connections are formed, which makes adapting to situations and learning how to respond appropriately easier for younger students. When students are in preschool, it is critical to support their social and emotional development in order to prevent possible long-term deficits (Hemmeter, Ostrosky, & Fox, 2006). Social skill training for teachers can help to reduce aggressive behavior. Response to Intervention for Behavior (RtI:B) is a practice that can be used to reduce aggression behaviors.…
Traditionally, disruptive behavior in the classroom resulted in negative consequences symbolized by the image of the misbehaving student wearing the “dunce cap” (Weaver, 2012). However, now schools throughout the United States have begun to adopt Positive Behavior Intervention Support (PBIS), which is designed to increase the amount of positive affirmation that students receive when behaving appropriately in the classroom (Caldarella, Williams, Hansen, & Wills, 2015). Research has demonstrated that PBIS may have the potential to reduce conflict in schools and create a more supportive environment for students (Lane‐Garon, Yergat, & Kralowec, 2012). PBIS has the potential to reduce school conflict because it proactively teaches appropriate…
Other students can see and recognize and learn from each other's behaviors and learn what the consequences are. A good example used in the chapter was if students are placed in time out due to misbehaving with each other. Students are placed very close to each other and given a goal of working out their differences. What I liked about this is that the timeout was for both parties and both parties had to figure out a plan to behave better and have a discussion about their actions. Use of operant conditioning and behavioral analysis in the classroom can help manage different behaviors in the classroom when used…
If you reward a child after they have done something wrong, chances are they’ll do it again. If you punish a child when they have behaved badly more than likely they will not act that way again. When a child has been good or has achieved something, you should complement them, let them know that you are proud of them and what they have done. Operant conditioning is important to know while trying to expert in child psychology, because you will be able to tell if a child has been built up or torn down. If you can tell a child has been built up to the point they are a spoiled brat and do not listen, then you will know that to correct these behavior you will have to start disciplining the child.…
Methodology. The following reports the development of data collected for a specific student observed over a months’ period time. This case study displays problem behaviors that are challenging in the classroom and affecting academic progress during his kindergarten year. This writer will document background information, family setting, and behaviors in the classroom setting as well as a plan for behavioral intervention. The student selected for this study is a Hispanic 5-year-old boy born in New York City named “Juan.”…
Behaviors are believed to be taught through the environment (Chilcott, 2013). There are consequences for behaviors (i.e.) if the behavior is good, it will be rewarded, and the person will likely repeat that behavior which strengthens positive behaviors, but if the behavior is not good, the consequence will be negative and therefore the…
Critically analyse and evaluate a range of behaviour management strategies and their effectiveness for both learners and teachers in a contemporary education setting. In 1987, the Professional Association of Teachers expressed trepidations regarding discipline in Britain’s schools. More than two decades on, the management of difficult and disruptive behaviour continues to be an issue in classrooms (Swinson and Cording, 2002; Watkins, 2011).…
For changing my behavior, operant conditioning, which is when I gave myself a negative punishment, seemed to help decrease my behavior. Since I really wanted my reward of candy at the end of the day I didn’t bit my nails. Positive reinforcement is another way that could have helped for influencing my behavior. When I acknowledged that I was not biting my nails and they were placed in my lap, it would have been effective to reward myself. Instead of looking forward to a reward at the end of the day I would have been looking forward to a reward every time I was taking a test.…
