3.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Basic Characteristic of Science • Systematic approach for seeking & organizing knowledge about the natural world • Purpose – To achieve a thorough understanding of the phenomena under study • ABA – socially important behaviors – Seeks to discover the real truths (not those held by certain groups, organizations, etc.)
4.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Basic Characteristic of Science • Three different types of investigations provide different levels of understanding: – Description – Prediction – Control • Each level contributes to the overall knowledge base in a given field
5.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Basic Characteristic of Science • Description – Collection of facts about observed events that can be quantified, classified, & examined for possible relations with other know facts – Often suggests hypotheses or questions for additional research
6.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Basic Characteristic of Science • Prediction – Relative probability that when one event occurs, another event will or will not occur – Based on repeated observation revealing relationships between various events – Demonstrates correlation between events – No causal relationships can be interpreted – Enables preparation
7.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Basic Characteristic of Science • Control – Highest level of scientific understanding – Functional relations can be derived • Specific change in one event (dependent variable)…. • Can reliably be produced by specific manipulations of another event (independent variable)… • And the change in the dependent variable was unlikely to be the result of other extraneous factors (confounding variables)
8.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Basic Characteristic of Science • Control (continued) – Events can only really be “co-related” – Nearly impossible to factor out all other possible “causes”
9.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Attitudes of Science • Science as a set of attitudes (Skinner, 1953) • Definition of science lies within the behavior of scientists, not the instruments or materials they use • Only known as science due to an overriding idea of “scientific method” – Fundamental assumptions about the nature of events
10.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Attitudes of Science • Scientific attitudes that guide the work of all scientists include: – Determinism – Empiricism – Experimentation – Replication – Parsimony – Philosophic doubt
11.
Attitudes of Science •
Determinism: Is based on cause and effect relations and lawfulness. Everything can be determined. • Empiricism: Is based on facts, observation, and experimentation. An emperor obserserves from his throne. • Experimentation: Manipulation of variables and taking measurements and collecting data yields answers. When you are experimenting, you are conducting an experiment. Cooper, Heron, and Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved
12.
Attitudes of Science •
Replication: Experiments can be repeated to check for errors and ensure that data was collected reliably. Replication is the act of repeating an experiment with the SAME results. • Parsimony: The simplest and most logical explanation is often the correct explanation. • Philosophical Doubt: A true scientist maintains doubt and seeks the truth through scientific means. Cooper, Heron, and Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved
13.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Attitudes of Science: Determinism • Assumption upon which science is predicted • Presumption that the universe is a lawful and orderly place in which all phenomena occur as the result of other events • Events do not just occur at will • Events are related in systematic ways • Determinism Scientists presume that the world is a lawful place where events occur because of other events that present in the environment. Things do not happen haphazardly in the universe. Instead, things happen because of a consequence of other events happening. There is a natural order to the universe and every phenomena has a rational explanation. People do not behave in certain ways for “no reason” and machines do not operate without logic. When a computer “acts glitchy,” there is a rational explanation within the code or hardware that can explain the resultant computer operation. The opposite of determinism is the thought that things happen by accident, predetermination or fatalism.
14.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Attitudes of Science: Empiricism • Practice of objective observation of phenomena of interest • What all scientific knowledge is built upon • “Objective” is the key to gaining a better understanding of what is being studied • Empiricism The act of objective observation of the phenomena that one is interested in, is empiricism. The result of empirical methods result in data that is consistent over any individual and exist in the world outside of our internal belief systems. The empirical attitude includes making the effort of objective observation, measurement and data calculations. The opposite of empiricism is speculation, conjecture or opinion.
15.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Attitudes of Science: Experimentation • Basic strategy in most sciences • Experiment: – Controlled comparison of some measure of the phenomenon of interest (dependent variable) under two of more different conditions in which only one factor at a time (independent variable) differs from one condition to another
16.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Attitudes of Science: Replication • The repetition of experiments to determine the reliability and usefulness of findings • Includes the repetition of independent variable conditions within experiments • Method for which mistakes are discovered • Replication The results of a single fully controlled experiment are important on their own, however, only after repeated replication can the findings of the experiment be added to the collection of scientific knowledge of a field. Replication is the main method used to display reliability of a scientific finding.
17.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Attitudes of Science: Parsimony • The idea that simple, logical explanations must be ruled out, experimentally or conceptually, before more complex or abstract explanations are considered • Help scientists fit findings within the field’s existing knowledge base • Parsimony The lay-person knows the word “parsimony” as a frugality. The scientific use of the word describes how the most simple and logical explanation of a phenomena should be considered before any highly contrived explanations examined. This is also referred to as the Law of Parsimony (Whaley & Surratt, 1968) and is related to Occam’s Razor created by William of Occam (1285 – 1329). This law asks us, when given two explanations for a given phenomena, to consider the most simple and least contrived explanation which requires the fewest assumptions and extraneous variables.
18.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Attitudes of Science: Philosophic Doubt • The continuous questioning of the truthfulness and validity of all scientific theory and knowledge • Involves the use of scientific evidence before implementing a new practice, then constantly monitoring the effectiveness of the practice after its implementation
19.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved A Definition of Science • Science is… – A systematic approach to the understanding of natural phenomena… – As evidenced by description, and control… – That relies on determinism as its fundamental assumption… – Empiricism as its prime directive… – Experimentation as its basic strategy… – Replication as its necessary requirement for believability… – Parsimony as its conservative value… – And philosophic doubt as its guiding conscience.
20.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Development of Applied Behavior Analysis • Behavior analysis is comprise of three major branches – Behaviorism • Philosophy of the science of behavior – Experimental analysis of behavior (EAB) • Basic research – Applied behavior analysis (ABA) • Development of a technology for improving behavior • Can only be understood in the context of the philosophy & basic research traditions & findings
21.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Development of Applied Behavior Analysis • Psychology in the early 1900’s was dominated with the study of states of consciousness, images, & other mental processes
22.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Development of Applied Behavior Analysis • Watson is recognized as moving the field of psychology in a new direction – Argued that subject matter for psychology should be the study of observable behavior, not states of mind or mental processes – Early form of behaviorism known as stimulus- response (S-R) psychology (Watsonian behaviorism) – Created foundation for the study of behavior as a natural science
23.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Development of Applied Behavior Analysis • B.F. Skinner’s The Behavior of Organisms (1938/1966) – Formally began the experimental branch of behavior analysis – Summarized his laboratory research from 1930-1937 – Discussed two types of behavior • Respondent • Operant
24.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Development of Applied Behavior Analysis • Respondent behavior – Reflexive behavior – Ivan Pavlov (1927/1960) – Respondents are elicited (“brought out”) by stimuli that immediately precede them – Antecedent stimulus & response it elicits form a functional unit called a reflex – Involuntary responses – Occur whenever eliciting stimulus is present – S-R model
25.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Development of Applied Behavior Analysis • Operant behavior – Behavior is shaped through the consequences that immediately follow it – Three term contingency – S-R-S model – Behaviors that are influenced by stimulus changes that have followed the behavior in the past
26.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Development of Applied Behavior Analysis • Experimental analysis of behavior (EAB) – Named as a new science by Skinner – Outlined specific methodology for its practice: • The rate or frequency of response is the most common dependent variable • Repeated or continuous measurement is made of carefully defined response classes • Within-subject experimental comparisons are used instead of designs comparing the behavior of experimental & control groups
27.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Development of Applied Behavior Analysis • Experimental analysis of behavior (EAB) – Specific methodology for its practice (continued): • Visual analysis of graphed data is preferred over statistical inference • A description of functional relations is valued over formal theory testing
28.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Development of Applied Behavior Analysis • Skinner & colleagues conducted many laboratory experiments between the 1930’s -1950’s – Discovered & verified basic principles of operant behavior – Same principles continue to provide the empirical foundation for behavior analysis today
29.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Development of Applied Behavior Analysis • B.F. Skinner – Founder of experimental analysis of behavior – Wrote extensively • Very influential in the guiding practice of the science of behavior & in proposing the application of the principles of behavior to new areas • Walden Two (1948) • Science and Human Behavior (1953) • About Behaviorism (1974) – Philosophy of science became known as radical behaviorism
30.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Development of Applied Behavior Analysis • Radical behaviorism – Attempts to explain all behavior, including private behavior (e.g. thinking & feeling) • Methodological behaviorism – Philosophical position that considers behavioral events that cannot be publicly observed to be outside the realm of the science
31.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Development of Applied Behavior Analysis • Mentalism – Approach to understanding behavior that assumes that a mental or “inner” dimension exists that differs from a behavioral dimension & that phenomena in this dimension either directly cause or at least mediate some forms of behavior – Relies on hypothetical constructs and explanatory fictions – Dominated Western intellectual thought & most psychological theories (e.g. Descartes, Freud, Piaget)
32.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Development of Applied Behavior Analysis • Mentalism (continued) – Relies on the premise of explanatory fiction (e.g. “knowledge) • A fictitious variable that often is simply another name for the observed behavior that contributes nothing to an understanding for the variables responsible for developing (or maintaining) the behavior • Circular view of the cause & effect
33.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Development of Applied Behavior Analysis • Structuralism – Rejects all events that are not operationally defined by objective assessment – Restrict activities to descriptions of behavior – Make no scientific manipulations; do not address causal questions
34.

Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Development of Applied Behavior Analysis • Skinner did not object to cognitive psychology’s concern with thoughts & feelings (i.e. events taking place “inside the skin”) • Referred to these as “private events” • They are behavior to be analyzed with the same conceptual & experimental tools used to analyze publicly observable behavior
36.
Cooper, Heron, and
Heward Applied Behavior Analysis, Second Edition Copyright © 2007 by Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved Development of Applied Behavior Analysis • Radical behaviorism (Skinner’s behaviorism) makes three assumptions about the nature of private events – Private events such as thoughts and feelings are behavior – Behavior that takes place within the skin is distinguished from other (“public”) behavior only by its inaccessibility – Private behavior has no special properties & is influenced by (i.e. is a function of) the same kinds of variables as publicly accessible behavior

• Selectionism (Phylogenic,
Ontogenic, Cultural) • B. F. Skinner said that there are 3 ways that the environment can apply itself upon a living being: Phylogenic, Ontogenic and Cultural. • Phylogenic: Natural evolution of a species (aka Darwinism). By a natural process of survival characteristics, each generation is passed characteristics by its predecessors. Phylogenics is a discipline in biology that is the study of the evolutionary history of groups of organisms • Ontogenic: This refers to an how the environment changes an individual over his or her lifetime. • Cultural: Passing behavior from one person to another by imitation and modeling.
