term.
methodological behavior
a) Represents Skinner’s “far-reaching” and “thoroughgoing” form of behaviorism that
includes both public and private behaviors.
b) This is the science in which the principles of behavior are used to improve socially
important behaviors and experimental analysis is used to determine which variables are
responsible for improvement.
c) Requires that scientists and practitioners selecting behaviors for change that are socially
significant.
d) Refers to a philosophical position in which behavioral events that cannot be
observed are not behaviors.
e) Founded by Skinner, this natural science focuses on studying operant behavior as a
subject matter, using single subject experimental designs rather than group designs, to
measure behavior as a dependent variable.
f) Requires that variables under study be observable and measurable.
g) Requires that interventions used must be based on the principles of behavior and have
empirical evidence supporting efficacy.
h) Requires that experimenters have used single subject research designs to demonstrate a
functional relation, or a believable demonstration of the efficacy of an intervention.
i) Requires the thorough and accurate description of procedures used in interventions.
j) Requires that behaviors last over time and appear in other environments other than the
that of training.
