� This section is similar to the introduction paragraph in your paper. Give a brief description of the behavior and participant. Use bullet points with a sentence or two rather than a paragraph.
� Eye contact is cultural (Aronsonet et al., 2010).
� Eye contact is an essential part of a conversation (Richardson et al., 2007).
� Poor eye contact may give wrong impressions such as little respect for the speaker (Amerikaner, 1980).
� Eye movements can inform the recipient whose turn it is to talk along with hand gestures and other forms of communicating (Richardson et al., 2007).
� Individuals with Autism often fear society and are able to maintain eye contact. Positive Reinforcement was used to modify the behavior deficit (Baker & Edelmann, 2002; Tetreault & Lerman, 2010).
Target Behavior Definition: Eye contact was defined as the ability to look at the other person while speaking and listening in a conversation.
Observation Process:
