The Scientist-Practitioner Model
As a science, behavior analysis is constantly changing. This requires that practitioners stay abreast of the current literature and new developments to ensure the most current empirically-validated procedures are used, with the end-goal always being to provide the most effective treatment to clients. Below is a list of our past and present staff’s (names in bold) research activities, conducted in continued efforts to be good ‘scientist-practitioners,’ as well as contribute to the field of behavior analysis.
