Quantitative integration of single-subject studies: Methods and misinterpretationsThe Behavior Analyst - Tập 22 - Trang 149-157 - 2017
Scott H. Kollins, M. Christopher Newland, Thomas S. Critchfield
Derenne and Baron (1999) criticized a quantitative literature review by Kollins,
Newland, and Critchfield (1997) and raised several important issues with respect
to the integration of single-subject data. In their criticism they argued that
the quantitative integration of data across experiments conducted by Kollins et
al. is a meta-analysis and, as such, is inappropriate. We reply that Kollins et... hiện toàn bộ
How Is Physiology Relevant to Behavior Analysis?The Behavior Analyst - Tập 19 - Trang 61-70 - 2017
Hayne W. Reese
Physiology is an important biological science; but behavior analysis is not a
biological science, and behavior analysts can safely ignore biological
processes. However, ignoring products of biological processes might be a serious
mistake. The important products include behavior, instinctive drift, behavior
potentials, hunger, and many developmental milestones and events. Physiology
deals with the ... hiện toàn bộ
Establishing OperationsThe Behavior Analyst - Tập 16 - Trang 191-206 - 2017
Jack Michael
The first two books on behavior analysis (Skinner, 1938; Keller & Schoenfeld,
1950) had chapter-length coverage of motivation. The next generation of texts
also had chapters on the topic, but by the late 1960s it was no longer being
given much treatment in the behavior-analytic literature. The present failure to
deal with the topic leaves a gap in our understanding of operant functional
relations.... hiện toàn bộ
Teachers and Students: Reflections on Social Control and Future PerformanceThe Behavior Analyst - Tập 7 - Trang 131-137 - 2017
Ernest A. Vargas, Lawrence E. Fraley
To instruct consists of arranging controls between teacher, student, and subject
matter. Initial controls must emanate from the teacher since those of the
subject matter are minimal, crude, or missing. Teachers mand students to behave
in certain ways with respect to a given subject matter. Eventually, however, the
teacher must transfer the teacher mediated and managed control of the student to
nat... hiện toàn bộ

Opening Skinner’s Box: an IntroductionThe Behavior Analyst - Tập 37 - Trang 67-68 - 2014
Matthew P. Normand
Behavior analysts have redefined the subject matter of psychology, redesigned
the experiments used to study that subject matter, renamed almost every part of
the world pertaining to that subject matter, and created specialized
organizations and journals. It is not surprising, then, that only a happy few
ever hear what behavior analysts say. One problem is that we need to publish
outside of the box... hiện toàn bộ
