Proposed in this paper is a conceptual model evaluating the interlocking behavioral contingencies (IBCs) through operant and respondent processes. Additionally, this paper evaluates the effectiveness of behavioral skills training (BST) in teaching undergraduate student leaders de-escalation strategies relevant to higher education settings. Three participants engaged in baseline and post-intervention (post-BST) role-play scenarios for six targeted behavioral strategies. Results indicated BST increased or maintained levels of strategy utilization in participants as well as improvement of provision of university resources despite existing knowledge of the intended use of each resource. This suggests that BST is an effective means of teaching behaviors related to de-escalation in the higher education setting and may support broader applications in campus conflict management. 2025-05-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.13013/3941 Ecopoiesis: Korean American Women’s Poetry Rooted in Generational Trauma Tryson, McKenna 2025-05-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.13013/3938 The Blackheart's Descent: Moon Pinto, Alison This graduate thesis includes the first roughly 100 pages of the second section of my fantasy-fiction novel, The Blackheart's Descent.
