A presentation by Dr. Ran Van Houten delivered at the 2016 Michigan Autism Conference
Brand: FoxyLearning
Description
Behavior analysis is a powerful tool that could ameliorate many of society’s problems. One of the first problems that was seriously addressed with a behavior analytic approach was the treatment of autism. Although a behavioral approach yielded promising results from the start, it took many years before the behavioral approach was accepted as the treatment of choice for autism. Although promising data have also been obtained from applications of behavioral technology to many other social problems, these applications have not yet been widely accepted or disseminated. Skinner envisioned behavior analysis as a technology that would address a wide variety of societal challenges. Initially behavior analysts were highly enthusiastic about society adopting our approach in areas such as education, but many people already working in these fields were resistant to a behavioral approach. This presentation examines a number of areas where behavior analysis could make a difference, and explore ways to overcome obstacles and accelerate the acceptance of our approach.

I think a better name for this lecture would be “Some Musings on How Technology Could Be Used In Behavior Analysis.” Lecture was more about electronic technology than I expected it to be, and focused more on ways to expand services to special needs populations rather than gave ideas and examples of how to target radically different goals or populations.
