A Study in Behavior Modifcation: Omar Hasan Ahmad al-Bashir, President of the Sudan (2006)

Posted in Personal and Academic Writings at 4:37 pm by Robert Goodis

This is a paper I wrote in 2006 for a social studies class at my high school.  The purpose of the paper was to present a hypothetical study in behaviorism, which places strong emphasis on psychological, biographical and historical information to suggest the personal actions and reactions of al-Bashir involved in his historical rise to power, and to propose what his likely reactions would have been to given circumstances.  This paper looks at Omar al-Bashir (also spelled Umar al-Bashier or al-Bechir), the military and political leader of the Sudan, and incorporates briefly his involvement in anti-Zionist and anti-Israel wars, as well as his involvement in the Sudanese Civil Wars and the war in Darfur.  The historical information in this paper is true; however, the rest of this paper is hypothetical conjecture.  Unfortunately, I wrote this according to a special format that was assigned to my class which was in response to specific questions and hypothetical situations and I no longer have that prompt information.  Also, this paper was written (for reasons I cannot remember or conceive) without a bibliography.  Keep in mind that only a portion of this paper is historical fact, and the rest is behaviorist hypotheticals.

Since writing this paper, an arrest warrant has been issued for President al-Bashir by the International Criminal Court.
