A GIRL named Sarina is a 6-year-old with non-compliant behavior and physical aggression. These behaviors are evident both at home and at school. Frequently, when given a direction to complete a task, Sarina will refuse to comply, shouting things such as "No." or "I do not feel like doing that." When her parents or staff attempt to redirect her non-compliance, she will become physically aggressive and attempt to hit or kick others. She has also been observed throwing objects and destroying property when she gets upset under these circumstances. Sarina's aggressive behavior has caused minor injuries to both her classmates and her younger brother.

Please respond to the following:

• Identify the dependent variable(s) in the case.
• What method(s) of data collection would be most appropriate to measure the behavior defined in the scenario?
  • Provide a rationale as to why the chosen method(s) of data collection would be most appropriate?
  • What, if any, limitation does this data collection method have?
• How would you account for reliability and validity of your measurement procedures?
• Create a set of hypothetical data (using 8-10 data points) to align with the scenario and create a basic graphical representation using Microsoft Excel that aligns with ABA conventions for one set of behavioral data.

Please be sure to review the Creating a Basic ABA Line Graph tutorial video https://kapextmediassl-a.akamaihd.net/artsSCi/Media/PS561/PS561_2204B/ABA/story.html to help you create your graph.

Review two of your classmates' responses, using the following ideas as a guide:

• Do you agree with the method of data collection for the behaviors noted in the case study? Why or why not?
• What feedback can you provide for the graph? Consider any constructive feedback regarding ABA conventions.
• Ask at least one thoughtful follow-up question.
