Liberty University
PSYC 320 - Behavior Modification
Target Behavior
In this report, procrastination is noted. In this study, procrastination is defined as delaying
the beginning or end of a task that is essential to one's success. Success in school, as well as in
one's personal and professional life, is less likely for procrastinators. Procrastination has been
associated with a higher risk of stress, hypertension, and cardiovascular diseases and a decreased
likelihood of seeking mental health care. According to data analysis, procrastination can be either
positive or negative, depending on how people perceive it.
Experiment Narrative
This observation was made in a typical daily setting. Each recording was made on a tablet
designed specifically for this observation. Data were collected daily, after work hours, and after
homework at night. Data was collected every three hours and totaled at the night's end. The data
was entered into the graph on the day the observation was submitted (shown in figure 1). It was
observed daily from November 7, 2022, to November 19, 2022.
Dimensions
The investigation lasted one week (seven-day period). It took place during working
hours, including a one-hour lunch break and the hours spent at home after work. The hours add
up to about 14 hours per day—eight hours at work and five to six hours at home doing
homework. At home, homework takes precedence over family time.
Target Behavior Observation.
During the workplace observation, some tasks are put off because other things need to be
finished, and, to put it mildly, there is stress to do. It has only recently occurred to the astute
observer that this is procrastination. The moment the observer enters the room, this begins. Once
the observer gets home, homework time begins. But then the procrastination cycle starts all over
again. The observant is up and about once an hour, cleaning, eating, and watching television.

This observation was made in a typical daily setting. Each recording was made on a tablet
designed specifically for this observation. Data were collected daily, after work hours, and after
homework at night. Data was collected every three hours and totaled at the night's end. The data
was entered into the graph on the day the observation was submitted (shown in figure 1). It was
observed daily from November 7, 2022, to November 19, 2022.
Dimensions
The investigation lasted one week (seven-day period). It took place during working
hours, including a one-hour lunch break and the hours spent at home after work. The hours add
up to about 14 hours per day—eight hours at work and five to six hours at home doing
homework. At home, homework takes precedence over family time.
Target Behavior Observation.
During the workplace observation, some tasks are put off because other things need to be
finished, and, to put it mildly, there is stress to do. It has only recently occurred to the astute
observer that this is procrastination. The moment the observer enters the room, this begins. Once
the observer gets home, homework time begins. But then the procrastination cycle starts all over
again. The observant is up and about once an hour, cleaning, eating, and watching television.
In this report, procrastination is noted. In this study, procrastination is defined as delaying
the beginning or end of a task that is essential to one's success. Success in school, as well as in

associated with a higher risk of stress, hypertension, and cardiovascular diseases and a decreased
likelihood of seeking mental health care. According to data analysis, procrastination can be either
positive or negative, depending on how people perceive it.

Target Behavior Observation.
During the workplace observation, some tasks are put off because other things need to be
finished, and, to put it mildly, there is stress to do. It has only recently occurred to the astute
observer that this is procrastination. The moment the observer enters the room, this begins. Once
the observer gets home, homework time begins. But then the procrastination cycle starts all over
again. The observant is up and about once an hour, cleaning, eating, and watching television.

Experiment Narrative
This observation was made in a typical daily setting. Each recording was made on a tablet
designed specifically for this observation. Data were collected daily, after work hours, and after
homework at night. Data was collected every three hours and totaled at the night's end. The data
was entered into the graph on the day the observation was submitted (shown in figure 1). It was
observed daily from November 7, 2022, to November 19, 2022.
Dimensions
The investigation lasted one week (seven-day period). It took place during working
hours, including a one-hour lunch break and the hours spent at home after work. The hours add
up to about 14 hours per day—eight hours at work and five to six hours at home doing
homework. At home, homework takes precedence over family time.
Target Behavior Observation.
During the workplace observation, some tasks are put off because other things need to be
finished, and, to put it mildly, there is stress to do. It has only recently occurred to the astute
observer that this is procrastination. The moment the observer enters the room, this begins. Once
the observer gets home, homework time begins. But then the procrastination cycle starts all over
again. The observant is up and about once an hour, cleaning, eating, and watching television.

homework at night. Data was collected every three hours and totaled at the night's end. The data
was entered into the graph on the day the observation was submitted (shown in figure 1). It was
observed daily from November 7, 2022, to November 19, 2022.
Dimensions
The investigation lasted one week (seven-day period). It took place during working
hours, including a one-hour lunch break and the hours spent at home after work. The hours add
up to about 14 hours per day—eight hours at work and five to six hours at home doing
homework. At home, homework takes precedence over family time.
Target Behavior Observation.
During the workplace observation, some tasks are put off because other things need to be
finished, and, to put it mildly, there is stress to do. It has only recently occurred to the astute
observer that this is procrastination. The moment the observer enters the room, this begins. Once
the observer gets home, homework time begins. But then the procrastination cycle starts all over
again. The observant is up and about once an hour, cleaning, eating, and watching television.
In this report, procrastination is noted. In this study, procrastination is defined as delaying
the beginning or end of a task that is essential to one's success. Success in school, as well as in
one's personal and professional life, is less likely for procrastinators. Procrastination has been
associated with a higher risk of stress, hypertension, and cardiovascular diseases and a decreased
likelihood of seeking mental health care. According to data analysis, procrastination can be either
positive or negative, depending on how people perceive it.

hours, including a one-hour lunch break and the hours spent at home after work. The hours add
up to about 14 hours per day—eight hours at work and five to six hours at home doing
homework. At home, homework takes precedence over family time.
Target Behavior Observation.
During the workplace observation, some tasks are put off because other things need to be
finished, and, to put it mildly, there is stress to do. It has only recently occurred to the astute
observer that this is procrastination. The moment the observer enters the room, this begins. Once
the observer gets home, homework time begins. But then the procrastination cycle starts all over
again. The observant is up and about once an hour, cleaning, eating, and watching television.
In this report, procrastination is noted. In this study, procrastination is defined as delaying
the beginning or end of a task that is essential to one's success. Success in school, as well as in
one's personal and professional life, is less likely for procrastinators. Procrastination has been
associated with a higher risk of stress, hypertension, and cardiovascular diseases and a decreased
likelihood of seeking mental health care. According to data analysis, procrastination can be either
positive or negative, depending on how people perceive it.
