Episode Details

In Session 125, I had the opportunity to speak with Drs. Corina Jimenez-Gomez and Chris Podlesnik. While we spent a good deal of time discussing translational works in Behavior Analysis and covered important topics like resurgence, renewal, relapse, and generalization. We also discussed things like the ABAI Science Blog - which I highly recommend checking out, and what it's like to find a job as a Behavior Analytic power couple!

We discussed a several of studies and resources, and I've done my best to list them here:

• Wathen, S. N., & Podlesnik, C. A. (2018). Laboratory models of treatment relapse and mitigation techniques. Behavior Analysis: Research and Practice.
• Podlesnik, C. A., Kelley, M. E., Jimenez‐Gomez, C. & Bouton, M. E. (2017). Renewed behavior produced by context change and its implications for treatment maintenance: A review. JABA.
• Briggs, A. M., Fisher, W. W., Greer, B. D. Kimball, R. T. (2018). Prevalence of resurgence of destructive behavior when thinning reinforcement schedules during functional communication training, JABA.
• Meuthing, C., Call, N., Pavlov, A., Ringdahl, J., Gillespie, S., Clark, S., Lomas Mevers, J. (2020). Prevalence of renewal of problem behavior during context changes, JABA.
• Stokes, T. F. & Baer, D. M. (1977). An Implicit Technology of Generalization, JABA.
• Mace, F. C. & Critchfield, T. S. (2010). Translational Research in Behavior Analysis: Historical Traditions and Imperative for the Future, JEAB.
• Cheney and Pierce, Behavior Analysis and Learning, 5th Edition.

I also clipped this graphic that will help with the discussion (taken from the Podlesnik, et al. article listed above).

This podcast is sponsored by the following:

• The 2020 New Hampshire Association for Behavior Analysis Virtual Conference! NH ABA is only a handful of years old, but for a smallish state, our conference has punched above its weight. The 2020 event will be no exception. This year's speaker list includes Drs. Solanday Forte, Deb Grossett, Bridget Taylor, Alyssa Wilson, Camille Kolu, and Emily Sandoz. NH ABA also acknowledges that the Covid-19 pandemic has resulted in financial burdens on many Behavior Analysts, so they've decided to use a values-ba
