- 1Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)A scientific approach for discovering environmental variables that reliably influence socially significant behavior and for developing a technology of behavior changes that is practical and applicable.
- 23 Levels of Scientific UnderstandingDescription- Systematic observations that can be quantified and classified.
Prediction (Correlation/ Co-variation)- Two events may regularly occur at the same time.
Control (causation)- Functional relationship. (HIGHEST LEVEL OF SCIENTIFIC UNDERSTANDING) - 3HIGHEST LEVEL OF SCIENTIFIC UNDERSTANDINGControl
- 46 Attitudes of Science/ Philosophical Assumptions of BehaviorDeterminism
Empiricism
Experimentation
Replication
Parsimony
Philosophical Doubt - 5Determinism*Cause and Effect
*Lawfulness (if/then)
*The world is orderly & predictable - 6Empiricism*FACTS
*Experimental data based scientific approach, drawing upon observation and experience.
*Requires object quantification & detailed description of events. - 7Experimentation*Manipulation of variables to see effects on Dependent Variables.
*Basic strategy of most sciences.
*An assessment to determine if one event caused the another event.
*Requires that all variables be controlled except the DV. - 8Replication-*Repeating experiments
*The method that scientist use to determine the reliability and usefulness of their findings.
*How scientist discover their mistakes, thus making science a self-correcting enterprise. - 9Parsimony*The simplest theory
*All simple and logical explanations must be ruled out before considering more complex explanations.
*help scientist fit findings within the field's existing knowledge base. - 10Philosophical DoubtHaving healthy skepticism & a critical eye about the results of studies and your work with clients.
- 117 Dimensions of ABA (Baer, Wolf, & Risley)Behavioral

Conceptually Systematic
Analytical
Generality (Generalization)
Effective - 12Behavioral*Observable events
*The behavior one chooses must be the behavior in need of improvement - 13Applied*ABA socially improves everyday life of clients
*Improves SOCIALLY SIGNIFICANT BEHAVIORS
*Also helps significant others - 14Technological*Defines procedures clearly & in detail so they are REPLICABLE
- 15Conceptually Systematic*All procedures used should be tired to the basic principles of behavior analysis from which they were derived.
- 16Analytical (Functional Relation, Experimentation, Control, Causation)*A FUNCTIONAL RELATIONSHIP IS DEMONSTRATED
*Describes when the experimenter has demonstrated a functional relation between the manipulated events & a reliable change in some measurement dimension of the target behavior. - 17Generality (Generalization)*Extends behavior change across time, setting, or other behaviors
- 18EffectiveImproves behavior in a practical manner, not simply making a change that is statistically significant.
- 19Mentalism TerminologyHypothetical Construct
Explanatory Fiction
Circular Reasoning - 20Mentalism*An approach to explaining behavior that assumes an inner dimension exits & causes behavior.
*Traditional psychology has been &continues to be dominated by mentalism.
Ex: Freud, Talk therapy, LMFT, LCSW etc - 21Hypothetical Constructs (Imaginary Constructs)*Presumed but un-observable, entities.
- 22Explanatory Fictions*Fictitious variables that are another name for the observed behavior. They contribute nothing to an understanding of the variables responsible for maintaining behavior.
*Words such as: knows, wants, figures out, etc - 23Circular Reasoning*The cause and effect are both inferred from the same information.
- 24Behaviorism*The philosophy of science of behavior
*Environmental explanation of behavior - 254 Branches of Behavior Analysis*Conceptual Analysis of Bx
* ABA
*Behavior service delivery
*Experimental Analysis of Behavior (EAB) - 26Conceptual Analysis of BxExamines philosophical, theoretical, historical and methodological issues.
- 27ABATechnology for improving behavior
- 28Behavior service deliveryProfessional practice, consultation etc
- 29Experimental Analysis of Behavior (EAB)*Research on basic process & Principles
*Laboratories - 30PavlovClassical Conditioning
i.e respondent conditioning with dogs - 31WatsonMethodological Behaviorism
(SRS, SR Psychology, Watsonian Behaviorism) - 32SkinnerRadical Behaviorism- included private events into understanding behavior
- 33Types of Behavior1. Respondent
2. Operant - 34Respondent Behavior*Elicited by stimuli that immediately precede them (i.e. Antecedent stimuli)
* Involuntary
*Reflex (US = UR) - 35HabituationWhen the eliciting stimulus is presented repeatedly over a short period of time, the strength of the respondent behavior diminishes.
- 36Respondent ConditioningAKA Classical conditioning, Pavlovian conditioning, S-S paring, CS-CR
- 37Operant Conditioning*The occassion for a response (Sd), the response, the outcome of the response.
*The dependency of a particular consequence on the occurrence of the behavior.
*When a reinforcer or punisher is said to be "contingent" on a behavior, the behavior must be emitted for the consequence to occur. - 38Dead man test"If a dead man can do it, it is not a behavior"
- 39Principles of BehaviorPunishment
Extinction
Reinforcement
