Episode 297 - Matching Law
ABA Inside Track
Despite being a cornerstone of the science of behavior, we’ve gone nearly 300 episodes without ever really delving into the details of the matching law. Maybe it’s because it involves too many equations. Maybe it’s because a lot of the research seems to focus exclusively on choice in basketball shots. In any case we’re getting every up to speed on the basics of the matching law and its importance in studying choice. Plus, Rob has spicy hot takes. Sweet sassy mo-lassy! This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU. Articles discussed this episode: doi: 10.1007/BF03391780 doi:...

Bonus Episode 36 - The Year in ABA (2024) w/ Matt Cicoria
ABA Inside Track
As one of our favorite holiday traditions, Matt Cicoria from the podcast, joins us for an annual review of what’s up in behavior analysis. And this year we’re shaking up the format to look at our own years in dissemination. We’ll discuss what topics were the most interesting (i.e., downloaded) to BCBAs and hypothesize as to what this might mean to the field. Don’t worry: In between sipping egg nog and looking at data, we also take the time to celebrate how old our shows (and therefore us hosts) are. Here’s to 2025!

Episode 296 - Artificial Intelligence and ABA w/ Dr. David Cox
ABA Inside Track
Though many of us likely use AI to auto-filI search results and find the name of songs, behavioral health has been steadily increasing the use of artificial intelligence in new and interesting ways for years. But is the tech outrunning our ability to ethically implement it? Dr. David Cox brings his deep knowledge of deep learning to the show this week to review what AI can offer, will offer, and what behavior analysts need to do to be prepared to accept or refuse its call. Though the part about AI doing all the scheduling does sound pretty great. This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU....

Episode 295 - Ableism in Schools
ABA Inside Track
Man, the more episodes we do around how well-meaning authorities tend to fall back to maintaining the inequitable status quo, the more examples of it we find. This week, we look at many of the practices in schools that continue to perpetuate ableism and what behavior analysts can do to disrupt these trends. And, spoiler alert, half of these practices were actually implemented to INCREASE access to education for individuals with disabilities. It turns out just trying to be nice doesn’t actually fix much without a solid understanding of individual perspectives. So, y’know, listen to the...

Finally, we wrap up 2024...

Episode 294 - (LISTENER CHOICE) Behavioral Aristry
ABA Inside Track
Though many of us likely think of ourselves as talendted clinicians, do we honestly consider our work with others to be considered art? Well, Richard Foxx did and so, apparently, do a lot of behavior analysts who think its high time we operationalize and train folks in the field on some of the skills that make creating a therapeutic alliance seem so effortless (at least, for some of us!). Thanks to our fabulous patrons, we’re digging into the topic of behavioral artistry. Are there really skills that separate the artist BCBAs from the jobbers? And if so, how does one become an artiste de...
info_outlineHooray! It’s Supervision September! And our first supervision episode is all about the soft skills. But that doesn’t make teaching them easy! The ability to build a therapeutic rapport with clients is increasingly being identified as a key component of the BCBA’s clinical skillset. But if you’re only just learning to do this yourself, how will you supervise the next generation to do this work? This week we review some promising research articles that may kick your compassionate skills training into overdrive. And we even brought a clicker!
