Questions
Yоu аre pursuing yоur BCBA аnd yоu аre a part of a research team at the university you attend. You are helping another student finish her dissertation that focused on implementing an ABA intervention to decrease SIB. The student implemented this intervention with three participants. Two of the three participants had great results and their behaviors decreased to consistent zero instances after implementation. One student, however, did not decrease his SIB after intervention. Your fellow student wants to publish her dissertation article when she is finished, but she is worried it will not be published due to the lack of change for the third participant. Her supervising professor for the dissertation is a BCBA, but was unaware that she implemented the intervention with three participants, so the student decided to take the third participant’s data and any mention of that participant out of the paper. The dissertation only includes information and implementation regarding 2 participants. If the supervising professor signs off on this dissertation, her or she could be held accountable for this ethical violation. If you are thinking like a BCBA, what would be the best response in this case?
