/in /by

Mentalism and Radical Behaviorism

As a future ABA professional, understanding how the field of behavior analysis differs from other psychology fields is important. Behavior analysts use objective and behavioristic statements to describe phenomena they observe. At this point in your studies, it is important to start eliminating mentalistic statements from your vocabulary to help you to begin thinking like a behavior analyst.

Use the Mentalism and Radical Behaviorism Template provided in the Resources area of this assignment to complete the following:

  • For the 10 phrases or sentences provided in the template, identify whether the statement provides a mentalistic or a behavioristic explanation for a behavior.
  • Write a summary, explaining the reasoning behind your choices. You are not required to provide an individual explanation for each statement.
  • For each of the mentalistic explanations you identify, provide a behavioristic explanation as an alternative.
  • Analyze how the behavioristic approach is different from most other psychology fields.
    • How would a mentalistic approach inform one’s practice?
    • How would a behavior analytic approach inform one’s practice?

Assignment Requirements

  • Written communication: Should be free of errors that detract from the overall message.
  • APA formatting: References and citations are formatted according to current APA style guidelines.
  • Resources: Minimum of 1–2 scholarly or professional resources.
  • Length: 2–4 double-spaced pages, in addition to the title page and reference page.
  • Font and font size: Times New Roman, 12 point.
  • SafeAssign: You are required to use SafeAssign before submitting the completed assignment to your instructor. Submit your work to SafeAssign as a draft, review the results, and make any needed changes. When you are ready, submit your assignment to the assignment area for grading.

This document contains directions for both parts of the assignment. Be sure to read through both parts and complete the questions as outlined in Part 2.

 

Part 1: Career Counseling Initial Session

 

First, complete research on career trends with regard to gender. Once this is completed. conduct a 25-30-minute career counseling initial session with a volunteer or a classmate of the opposite gender while using your GCU Zoom account. The individual will need to complete an informed consent form before conducting the interview.

 

While conducting the initial session, execute the practice components of career counseling that includes the following:

· An initial session interview

· A discussion with the client about a career assessment you would like to administer.

· Strategies for ways to help the individual develop skills for work-life balance that are gender appropriate.

· Strategies for assisting the client to learn or enhance the use of technology for career information and planning,

· Identifying and acquiring of career information resources that are relevant for the individual that consider cultural and gender factors.

· A demonstration of the theoretical approach that is being used

 

As with all counseling encounters, it is important to engage in the basic counseling skills while conducting a career counseling initial session. The skills allow counselors to understand the individual’s career interests, career concerns, and career development. During the initial session, you should engage in the following:

· Demonstrate the ability to welcome the individual and begin the process of developing rapport.

· Demonstrate the ability to effectively review informed consent.

· Demonstrate the ability to use open-ended questions to learn more about the individual’s career employment, career interests, and career concerns to move the session forward.

· Demonstrate

· S – Sitting squarely

· O – Open posture

· L – Leaning forward

· E – Eye contact

· R – Relaxed body language

(Note any challenging aspects of using SOLER in a Zoom session)

· Demonstrate verbal and nonverbal empathetic listening skills

· Demonstrate verbal and nonverbal active listening skills

· Demonstrate summarizing skills, particularly during transitions in the session

Note: American Counseling Association (ACA) ethical guidelines indicate that interviewees have the right to refuse to answer any question posed to them by an interviewer. Please ensure that your interviewees are aware of this, and do not force them to answer where the opportunity to reply has been refused.

Part 2: Reflection

Zoom Link:

Directions: Complete a 300-500 word reflection on the results of the intake interview which addresses the following:
