Say All Fast Minute Every Day Shuffle SAFMEDS
- single governing body for Behavior Analyst Certification Board (BACB)
professionals in the field of behavior
analysis
- established in 1998 to provide
certification to professionals in an
effort to establish minimum criteria
to be a reactionary
,a systematic approach fro seeking science
and organizing knowledge about the
natural world
description, prediction, control Three levels of understanding
studies that produce a collection of descriptive
facts about the observed events that
can be quantified, classified, and
examined for possible relations with
other known facts
when a systematic co-variation correlation
occurs between two events, we are
able to predict the probability that
one event will occur in conjunction
with the other event
- highest level of scientific control
understanding
- specifically manipulate one event in
order to produce a reliable change
in another event
The factor that is manipulated; independent variable
variable whose effect is being
studied
The outcome factor in which we dependent variable
observe change; the variable that
may change in response to
manipulations of the independent
variable
,when one event is specifically Functional Relation
manipulated in order to produce a
reliable change in another event,
and the change in the dependent
variable in not likely due to other
extraneous factors (confounding
variables)
- the "behavior" we wish to change dependent variable
- the change we see in target bx
- the "intervention" we employ independent variable
- the stimuli we manipulate
when we manipulate the Functional Relation
independent variable and see a
change in the dependent variable
and that change is not likely due to
confounding variables
assumption that the universe is a determinism
lawful and orderly place in which
phenomena occur as a result of
other events
The objective observation of the Empiricism
phenomena of interest
repeating of experiments to Replication
determine the reliability and
usefulness of the findings
, considers the simplest , most logical parsimony
explanation of a phenomenon
before more complex explanations
are considered
Behaviorism 3 major branches of behavior analysis
Experimental Analysis of Behavior
(EAB)
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)
natural science approach for Experimental Analysis of Behavior
discovering orderly and reliable
relations between behaviors and
various types of environmental
variables of which it functions.
the science of behavior that focuses Behaviorism
on observable behavior only
established by Bear, Wolf, and Risley Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)
in 1968 with 7 guiding dimentions
Attempts to study all behavior, Radical Behaviorism
including private events, such as
thoughts/feelings, in terms of
controlling variables in the history of
the person and species.
A philosophical position that views methodological behaviorism
behavioral events that cannot be
publicly observed as outside the
realm of science.
