Content
Clearly explains the general purpose of each of the 3 sets of data presented and how each set of data can be used in the program planning process. Correctly identifies the type of data collected as either quantitative or qualitative. Contains no misunderstandings	0-25
Appropriately uses data presented for the program planning and evaluation process by including the following analysis: For Figure 1:Discuss the level and trend of the challenging behavior incidents reported during baseline (before) and treatment (after the program began). Describes the effect of the intervention on behavior incidents.   For Figure 2: Calculates the mean score on the observational checklist before the program was implemented and after. Discusses the effect  of the program on behavior correction procedures in the classroom. For Figure 3: Calculates the percentage of students who rated their school experience at the highest and the lowest level before and after intervention.  Discusses these results as they relate to the effect of the program on student satisfaction. Contains no misunderstandings or miscalculations	0-50
Discusses if objectives of program were met related to each measure and correctly identifies if additional intervention or changes to intervention are needed.	0-15

            Below is an example of a contract. I used the template provided in the reading (Miltenberger, 2012, page 453).Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a developmental disability that affects how a person communicates with and relates to other people. People suffering from ASD display one or more of the following traits: Social Impairment, communication impairment, repetitive behavior. The behavior contract that has been shaped up is based on a 14 year child who suffers from Autism Spectrum Disorder. The first feature of the behavior contract is to place immense importance on positive reinforcement to address the antisocial behavior described above in the teenager. In order to make sure that an effective behavior contract has been implemented, the contract will be divided into three parts/phases. In phase A the child who is being treated will be ignored when he repeats an antisocial behavior while his peers would be reinforced and appreciated when they demonstrate the opposite socially acceptable behavior. Phase B would involve intervention where the teenager would be assigned with academic targets and in return he would be allowed to access his preferred activity for an extended period of time. Finally phase C would involve the child achieving a weekly academic target and once he manages to achieve the target, he would be allowed to access his preferred activity at the weekend with his family. The results of the behavior contract would be closely examined and would be displayed in the form of graphs and tables to make the analysis easier. All the target behaviors in this contract will be documented on a data sheet by Suzie and her parents at the time that they occur (Miltenberger, 2015). To conclude, the results of the behavior contract would be examined in order to find out any room for improvement because the techniques related to the behavior contract would continue to evolve as the environment in which the behavior is being observed continues to change simultaneously.
