Important Perceptions to Become a Productive and Successful Behavior Analyst
1. Make sure to state your career interests. After stating your career interests, discuss what PERCEPTIONS will be important so you can be productive and successful.

The states of consciousness that could impact my work vary throughout the day and my life. One of these is my biological rhythm, which entails the internal rhythms of all biological activities. These activities would affect my alertness and sleep-wake schedule (Hsu, 2023). Another state of consciousness that could...
