PSYK2310 Behavior Analysis 3 - Experimental and Conceptual Behavior Analysis Course description

Teaching takes place on campus and alternates between lectures and various student-centred activities, including peer assessment and seminar days devoted to oral presentations. Follow-up and supervision are provided during the course.

The following coursework requirements must have been approved for the student to take the exam:

• Coursework Requirement 1: Written Group Assignment and Seminar Attendance

Written assignment. A group paper of 1 500 words (± 10 %). The group receives oral feedback before submission. The final version must be submitted before the group’s oral presentation. All group members must contribute equally. The purpose is to give students practice in academic writing.

Attendance. Mandatory participation in a two-day seminar, including the group’s own oral presentation and attendance at other groups’ presentations.

The written paper and the oral presentation are assessed together by the group’s lecturer. If either component is not approved, the group may submit a revised paper and give one additional oral presentation within the specified deadline. Active attendance at the seminar is required so that students present their work with their group and engage with the presentations of others.

All compulsory activities and coursework must be completed and approved by the set deadline for the student to be admitted to the examination.

The exam in the course is an individual supervised exam of 6 hours.

No aids are permitted.
