Behavior analysis is a science based on the philosophical principles of behaviorism. The key point of behaviorismis that what people do can be understood. Scientists, in the view of behaviorism, can look at behavior as a process that can have any number of causes, internal or external. Behavioral analysts believe that people can arrange their envir...
Behavior analysts use a variety of techniques to change behavior. These include chaining, prompting, and shaping.
Behavior analysis consists of three major branches influenced by three major scientists (Cooper, Heron, and Heward, 2020): 1. Behaviorism,which is the philosophy of the science of behavior; 2. Experimental analysis of behavior or basic research into behavior; 3. Applied behavior analysis aims to develop ways to understand and change behavior (Coope...
Behaviorism Assumptions and Philosophy
In the early 1900s, studies of states of consciousness, images, and other mental processes dominated psychology (Cooper, Heron, and Heward, 2020). These studies often used introspection, or the act of carefully observing one’s own thoughts and feelings, as the method of investigation. Although this does not fully align with modern scientific methods, authors from the first decade of the 20th century nonetheless defined psychology as the science of behavior (Kazdin, 1978; Cooper, Heron, and He...
Experimental Analysis of Behavior
Scholars generally agree that B. F. Skinner established the foundations of behavior analysis formally in his 1938 book, The Behavior of Organisms.In this book – a summary of his research from 1930 to 1937 – Skinner emphasized two types of behavior: respondent and operant. Inspired by Ivan Pavlov’s work, Respondent behavior posits that respondents are “brought out” by stimuli that occur immediately before the behavior. For example, a bright light could be the stimulus for pupil constriction, a...
Applied Behavior Analysis
Applied behavior analysis is a science that seeks to understand and improve human behavior. In contrast to other branches of psychology, applied behavior analysis focuses on objectively defining socially significant behaviors and intervening to improve the behaviors studied and uses scientific methods such as objective description, quantification, and controlled experimentation (Cooper, Heron, and Heward, 2020). Fuller (1949) conducted one of the first studies reporting the applications of op...
Agroforestry
Goltz, Mayer, and Orr (2020) examined how applied behavior analysis can be used in encouraging development agencies to design agroforestry programs that reduce erosion and climate change through case studies. The people enacting these changes could be individuals or large groups. In successful cases of using behavior analysis to modify agroforestry behavior, the groups attempting to create change gave reinforcements to agroforestry “adopters,” occasionally making the reinforcements either mor...
Dance in People With Neurodevelopmental Disorders
Pontone, Vause, and Zonnevelt (2020) reviewed 19 studies of teaching dance to those with neurodevelopmental disorders and found that eight listed at least one behavior-analytic component as part of their dance intervention package. For example, five studies used positive reinforcementsuch as praise to increase desired behaviors, and verbal, model, and gestural prompts were also common. One study, for example, used auditory feedback to reinforce dance, where the instructors played a clicking s...

Behavior analysis is a natural science that seeks to understand the behavior of individuals. That is, behavior analysts study how biological, pharmacological, and experiential factors influence the behavior of humans and nonhuman animals.
OVERVIEW. Clinical behavior analysis is the application of the conceptual and methodological tools of behavior analysis to treat problems that have traditionally been characterized as mental disorders. Clinical behavior analysts work in universities, hospitals, outpatient clinics, as well as in primary care and residential settings.
Nov 7, 2016 · Charts play a significant role within the interpretation of scientific data. This article examines some inconsistencies in data display methods used in Behavior Analysis: Research and Practice and the Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis and suggests that adopting some chart goals could improve future graphing practices.
