[Solved by Nursing Experts] Performance Diagnostic Checklist –

• Identify and describe basic themes common to both disciplines.
• Analyze the theoretical underpinnings of each approach by: 
  • Describing the theory behind each approach.
  • Comparing and contrasting the theories with one another.
  • Considering the relationship to basic behavior analytic concepts.
• Locate four recent evidence-based studies in the literature that share common themes, two demonstrating OBM approaches and two demonstrating I/O psychology approaches. 
  • Consider the research questions, design, methods, and results of the studies, and analyze how they are consistent with the approach taken.
  • Assess if the approach taken by each study was the best approach. Explain your response.
• State if I/O psychology and OBM are best seen as distinct fields or if one is more clearly a subset of the other, based on your analysis. Synthesize your analysis to justify your conclusions.
