EVALUATING DISTRACTIONS OF UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS DURING GUIDED AND UNGUIDED STUDY SESSIONS
In this study, we explore an intervention strategy aimed at decreasing distractions while studying. The participant was a third-year undergraduate psychology student with a concentration in neuroscience who did not have a personal structured study system. The researcher measured the percent of intervals in which a distraction occurred using interval recording during baseline and intervention phases. During the intervention phase, the participant was introduced to the productivity method referred to as the Pomodoro Ⓡ Technique. Using a reversal design, data were analyzed based on levels of distraction during baseline and intervention phases. The goal of this study was to evaluate if the participant was distracted less during the intervention phase than during the baseline phase. Visual analysis indicates a functional relation between the independent and dependent variables
