Description
Behavior Analysis and Learning offers an advanced introduction to the principles of behavior analysis from a behavioral perspective. It covers the full spectrum of the field. Topics range from respondent and operant conditioning to applied behavior analysis and cultural design. As a result, readers gain a well-rounded understanding of how behavior develops and changes.
Grounded in B. F. Skinner’s philosophy of radical behaviorism, the text connects behavioral theory with Darwinian evolution, neurophysiology, and biological research. In addition, this edition expands its focus on neurophysiological mechanisms. These updates reflect current research and strengthen links to the experimental analysis of behavior.
Moreover, the book uniquely integrates behavior analysis with neuroscience, epigenetics, and cultural studies. It presents these ideas within a selectionist framework. Consequently, readers examine behavior through environmental, genetic, neurobiological, and sociocultural lenses. This interdisciplinary approach highlights the biological roots of behavior and reinforces a strong scientific foundation.
To support learning, the book Behavior Analysis and Learning includes sections such as New Directions, Focus On, Note On, On the Applied Side, and Advanced Section. These features encourage critical thinking and real-world application. Finally, the seventh edition adopts inclusive language and broader representation across race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexuality, and neurodiversity. Explore More
