1. Go to ODD and CD

2. Read “Example of ODD” below to answer the following questions :

Ten year-old Jessie has been irritable and easily annoyed for over a year now. She often “talks back” to adults or is generally disrespectful. Her parents feel like she is constantly “testing boundaries” by blatantly breaking rules, such as staying up past her bedtime or going to friends’ houses without permission. Over the past year at school, Jessie has been sent to detention about once a week for arguing with the teacher or picking fights with other students. Her grades have also declined considerably in the past year but she blames her teacher, complaining “she gives me a hard time because she hates me.”

3. Based on the example, suggest two target behaviors for intervention that are observable, can be operationally defined, and can be measured repeatedly ove r time. For each target behavior , include an example operational definition and suggest how it might be measured. Please type your responses below.
