Abstract

While often associated with treatment for individuals with autism spectrum disorder, the field of behavior analysis has a lot to offer all professionals in the self-management of productive writing schedules. This workshop is designed for students or professionals who find themselves writing assessments, reports, treatment plans, IEP goals, research protocols, manuscripts, reviews, and more. Writing constitutes a large portion of professional correspondence, and often its efficiency is not directly trained. In this workshop, you will be provided with ten strategies to improve your own writing efficiency. Join Dr. Fahmie in the exploration and transformation of habits that may lead to missed deadlines, missed opportunities for funding, and overall lack of productivity. Participants will complete a workbook to guide the initial self-management of a productive writing schedule, so whether you find yourself avoiding writing tasks altogether, or you simply want to use your time more efficiently, this workshop will get you back on track.

This event was offered annually as part of the ABACLive Cambridge Center Series. Due to the number of requests for the workshop, Dr. Fahmie developed this on-demand tutorial. 50% of the proceeds will be donated directly to CCBS. 

Learning Objectives:

By the end of this event, participants should be able to:

• Participants will identify the behavioral characteristics of writing.
• Participants will identify strategies for increasing their writing productivity.
•  Participants will identify habits that hinder the productivity of their writing.

She previously held an appointment as associate professor at California State University, Northridge (CSUN).

By infusing her personal journey of self-improvement in scholarly writing with evidence-based strategies and behavioral concepts, Dr. Fahmie hopes to teach attendees a few key writing skills that will set them up for personal and professional success.
