The rapid advance of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) against Iraqi forces represents yet another critical milestone in Iraq’s turbulent recent history.

Abstract

Recent news of police engaging lethal force to contain seemingly non-dangerous situations has dominated headlines in the news. News such as the shootings of Kajieme Powell, Michael Brown and countless others and the seeming impunity that the system grants the accused proffer that the system will use any avenue to impose the upper classes’ will on the lower class in the guise of crime control. However, rather than project a racist slant, the research also looks on the possibility that the police officers, in the line of duty, must be given enough latitude in determining the situations that ...

Behavioral interventions can be grouped as either antecedent-based interventions (ABI) or consequence-based interventions (CBI). CBI is a group of practices in which the problem behaviors are addressed by manipulating the reinforcement or punishment stimuli following an observed behavior, whereas ABI refers to a group of behavioral interventions that are concerned with the modification of environmental factors that are believed to precede problem behaviors (Tullis, Cannella-Malone, & Payne, 2015). Therefore, ABI strategies are implemented before the problem behavior occurs, so their unique quality is the possibility of problem behavior prevention, which makes the behavioral change easier to maintain compared to results ...
