A systematic approach to understanding the behavior of humans and other animals
POPULARITY
Lisa and I begin a conversation on the blessings and challenges of grandparenting. I consider how the former president's cognitive failures are mirrored in our own. We look at Jacob's blessing of his two grandsons, Ephraim and Manassah. Finally, we consider how BF Skinner's behaviorism is absurd in itself.
The science of behavior has a lesser-known but powerful framework that draws inspiration from physics - behavior dynamics. In this episode, we discuss core concepts such as force, mass, and acceleration as they relate to behavior change, illustrating how behavior is not static but constantly in motion. While valuable, we highlight how traditional steady-state logic can limit our understanding in applied settings, especially where control is minimal. The discussion emphasizes the value of acceleration, bounce, and replication logic as valid indicators of experimental effects through examples from precision teaching and historical insights from Skinner. This episode challenges listeners to reconsider what constitutes strong evidence and invites a broader, more dynamic perspective on data-driven decision-making in practice.

Come join us! ⭐️**********************************Behavior charts. Consequence ladders. ABC data.They're everywhere- and school counselors are often expected to be in the middle of it.But what happens when the behaviorist framework you're handed feels completely misaligned with your counseling instincts? What if you're tired of being the “behavior person” when all you want is to help kids feel safe and understood?In this episode, I'm naming the tension between behaviorism and trauma-informed care, and why school counselors are so often stuck in the middle. We'll explore how to hold both structure and compassion… and how to begin stepping back into the role that actually reflects your training.If you've ever felt caught between compliance and connection, this one's for you.[00:00] Why behavior plans feel off for counselors[03:00] Behaviorism basics (and why it still dominates)[06:45] Trauma-informed care: the “can't,” not “won't” lens[10:00] Can you hold structure and compassion?[14:00] Real-life examples: escape and attention-seeking[16:30] The problem isn't just strategy—it's your role[17:30] Three frameworks that actually work[20:00] How to stop being “the behavior person”[24:00] Four ways to shift the narrative[27:00] Final encouragement + your next stepReferencesBarth, R.

In this first installment of a two-part conversation, we welcome Dr. Keira Moore—behavior analyst, dog trainer, and dedicated advocate for compassionate, ethical training. With over two decades of experience in behavior analysis and a PhD from Western New England University, Keira bridges the worlds of human and animal behavior science, applying her expertise to both dog training and consulting on anxiety and sleep-related challenges. Keira takes us on a fascinating journey through her career, from her early love of animals and behavioral psychology studies to working with children on the autism spectrum and ultimately finding her passion in dog training. Along the way, she shares how her introduction to clicker training (involving an unexpected feline trainee!) shaped her approach to behavior modification. We also explore the core principles of radical behaviorism and how they apply across species—from humans to dogs and beyond. What You'll Discover in This Episode:
Abby and Patrick welcome returning guest Hannah Zeavin – scholar, write, editor, co-founder of the Psychosocial Foundation and Founding Editor of Parapraxis magazine – to talk about her brand-new book, Mother Media: Hot and Cool Parenting in the 20th Century. It's an exploration of the complex relationships that have tied together the figure of the mother as an abstraction, the work of mothering as a practical matter, and academic and popular discourses about what mothers should be and how they should go about doing it. What does it mean to think about the mother as a “medium” for containing, nurturing, and shepherding the development of a child, and why do debates about mothering pivot so invariably around questions of media consumption and technological mediation? The conversation spans the history of academic research into parenting from behaviorism to attachment theory; clinical and popular discourses about mothers from Freud to Dr. Spock; the profusion of tools that promise to “help” mothers with their kids; “good-enough” mothering, mother-blaming, and vicious double binds; moral, political, and legal debates about nannies, “helicopter mothers,” incarcerated mothers, Sudden Infant Death Syndrome; and much, much more.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE (+ scroll for resources)
As busy school counselors, we often find ourselves reaching for quick-fix solutions to help our students. But are these convenient resources truly serving our students' needs? In this episode, I challenge the effectiveness of "print and pray" materials that have become way too common in our field.Thinking back to the misguided "fat-free" diet craze of the 90s, I explore how mass-produced school counseling worksheets and activities might be doing more harm than good. Because while they promise quick results and seem helpful on the surface, they often lack the substance needed for meaningful change.00:00 Introduction: 90s Diet Culture02:21 The Problem with "Print and Pray" Resources04:33 Effective Counseling Strategies06:50 Behaviorism and Counseling08:15 Trauma-Informed Care in Counseling09:48 Solution-Focused Brief Therapy12:39 Practical Tips for School Counselors20:11 Conclusion

We explore Chirag's early experiences with the dog named Kane that sparked it all, how some wonderful early mentorship opportunities have shaped his views on giving back to the training community, delve into how we us trainers can foster creativity and the importance of observation. We also discuss mindfulness, how engaging fully with clients can lead to wonderful outcomes and where we should be putting our efforts in terms of inspiring the next wave of awesome animal trainers. We celebrate the realities of where positive training has got us and talk through the potential pitfalls of any movement that doesn't follow the evidence. Chirag also muses on how societal changes have evolved our training styles and talks about being a proud Radical Behaviourist. No chat with Chirag would be complete without a good dose of Skinner and Chirag talks passionately about Skinner's philosophies including areas he wrote about that many haven't explored. On top of all that we also chew the fat over how social media can distort perceptions of animal training practices, How the very nature of scientific inquiry requires a level of uncertainty to flourish AND the importance of balancing technical knowledge with practical application when it comes to dog training.As an added “Bookshelver bonus” we've also captured Nat's LIVE reaction to seeing Benson Boones performance at the Grammys (spoiler…she enjoyed it) Honestly this was one of our favourite shows EVER and I'm sure you'll enjoy it from start to end! Now make like a Benson, flip off a piano and get this episode in you ear-holes... WOOF!
In this episode, we explore the scientific perspective on free will—or the lack thereof. Is human behavior truly a matter of personal choice, or is it shaped by biological, environmental, and cultural factors? We dive into an article discussing neuroscientist Robert Sapolsky's book Determined, which argues against the existence of free will. His conclusions align with behavior analytic principles that emphasize reinforcement and contingencies as the true drivers of behavior. We also examine the broader societal implications, from criminal justice to education, and discuss the importance of compassionate, data-driven approaches in understanding and supporting individuals—rather than blaming them for their actions.

In this class series, Rabbi Shmuly will explore the Torah of the mind. Examining thinkers like Freud, Piaget, Maslow, Frankl, and so many others over 50 interactive sessions, we will explore how Jewish thought intersects with modern psychological studies and theories. Looking at consciousness, moral reasoning, ego, love, learning, and evil, how can we better understand why humans act as they do? Considering our relationships, traumas, memories, conflicts, and self-esteem, how can reflecting on the deep complexity of our minds help us live more meaningful lives? Further, how might Jewish ethics and Jewish philosophy help us ask not just “how do we live” but “how might we live?” Join us for a deep dive into the collective, individual, and the Jewish mind.Attended these classes live over Zoom by becoming a member for just $18 per month: https://www.valleybeitmidrash.org/become-a-member.------------------Stay Connected with Valley Beit Midrash:• Website: https://www.valleybeitmidrash.org• Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ValleyBeitMidrash ★ Support this podcast ★

My interview earlier this year with Positive Psychologist, Chris DeSantis was such a goldmine that I immediately asked him to come present to our Insider Mastermind to teach them about positive psychology. In our first episode together, Chris introduced positive psychology, but we really just scratched the surface. I'm thrilled to say that this episode goes so much deeper and leaves you with so many actionable ways to better help your athletes. In this episode, Chris dives deep into his positive psychology philosophies. As the first person to get his advanced degree in Positive Psychology, he has a unique, valuable, even revolutionary perspective on just about everything related to mental training. Chris shares personal stories and examples of his coaching, and shows what it's really like to take a client through negative visualization. He even shares the script he uses with athletes so that you can start using this tool right away in your own coaching practice. And since we were live on a coaching call with The Insider Mastermind, he answers loads of real questions from real mindset coaches. This episode is robust enough to listen to on it's own, and is also a great follow up to our first interview together, so tune in and let me know on IG @lindseypositiveperform what you think of the episode!

Join Alex and returning guest host Dr. Jordan Wagge as they wax poetic and deep on one of Bill Murray's best, Groundhog Day (1993). Written and directed by comedy ace Harold Ramis and also starring Andie MacDowell, Chris Elliott, and Stephen Tobolowsky, this movie has become timeless with the question: what would you do with a day that repeats over and over? The concepts explored in the episode feature heavily in behaviorist and learning principles, as well as a discussion of research methods and hypothesis testing. Of course Phil needs to learn how to be a better human, and what better way to learn than testing his hypotheses about death, skills, and love? There's surely no better way than to repeat the same day over and over!

Welcome, dog lovers and behavior enthusiasts, to the BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour Podcast! Today, join Grandpa Bill, your trusty guide through the fascinating world of animal wellness, as we embark on a two-part exploration of a giant in the field of psychology and behaviorism: B.F. Skinner! Before we dive into the mind of this influential figure, let's set the stage. Behaviorism, in a nutshell, is the study of observable behavior and how it's shaped by its consequences. Think of it as understanding how past experiences influence future actions. Enter B.F. Skinner (1904-1990): Key Concepts of Operant Conditioning In this first part, let's explore some of the core principles Skinner identified: Positive reinforcement: Rewarding a desired behavior to increase its likelihood (e.g., praising your dog for calmly sitting). Negative reinforcement: Removing an unpleasant stimulus to increase a desired behavior (e.g., taking off your dog's leash when they stop pulling). Punishment: Delivering an unpleasant stimulus to decrease an unwanted behavior (e.g., using a gentle "no" when your dog jumps on people). Extinction: Withholding reinforcement for an unwanted behavior, leading to its gradual decrease (e.g., ignoring your dog's whining until they calm down). Unpacking the Human Puzzle: A Deep Dive into B.F. Skinner (Part 1) Welcome, listeners, to the BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour Podcast! Buckle up as Grandpa Bill, your guide to understanding ourselves and others, takes us on a two-part exploration of human behavior through the lens of a fascinating figure: B.F. Skinner! We all do things for a reason, but what shapes our choices and actions? That's where behaviorism enters the picture. It's the study of observable behavior and how it's influenced by its consequences. Think of it as understanding why we do what we do and how past experiences might color our future behavior. Enter B.F. Skinner: Key Concepts of Operant Conditioning Let's explore some of the cornerstones Skinner identified: Positive reinforcement: Rewarding desired behavior to make it more likely (e.g., praising your child for doing chores). Negative reinforcement: Removing something unpleasant to encourage a desired behavior (e.g., taking away screen time until homework is done). Punishment: Delivering something unpleasant to discourage unwanted behavior (e.g., a time-out for hitting). Extinction: Withholding reinforcement for unwanted behavior, leading to its gradual decrease (e.g., ignoring whining until it stops). B.F. Skinner: Understanding Our Choices (Part 1) - The Science of Shaping Behavior#psychology, #behaviorism, #BFSkinner, #operantconditioning, #selfimprovement, #personalgrowth,dog training,BF Skinner vs Carl Jung B.F. Skinner: Focus: Observable behavior and its response to consequences. Theory: Operant conditioning - behavior is controlled by its consequences. Emphasis: External factors shaping behavior through reinforcement and punishment. View of individual: Shaped by environment and experiences. Role of the unconscious: Not considered relevant. Carl Jung: Focus: Unconscious mind and its impact on personality and behavior. Theory: Analytical psychology - personality is comprised of conscious and unconscious elements. Emphasis: Internal factors like archetypes and collective unconscious influencing behavior. View of individual: A unique product of conscious and unconscious forces. Role of the unconscious: Fundamental to understanding human behavior and motivation.

Cognitive psychology and the Cognitive Load Theory are explained through a behavior-analytic perspective. Cognitive Load Theory posits that working memory has a limited capacity, much like a bucket that can only hold so much water before it overflows. But how does the theory fare when we delve into it through the lens of behavior analysis? In the conversation, we discuss the behavior-analytic interpretations of cognitive load, offering insights into how our environment and learning experiences can shape the way our cognitive 'bucket' gets filled. We also shed light on how educators and individuals can leverage an understanding of cognitive load from a behavior analytic standpoint to optimize learning and task performance.

http://linkedin.com/in/lyubovyusufovaDoctor of Psychology student at CIS investigating the interface of clinical psychology, consciousness, and comparative mystical experience. After five years of neuroscience research in mouse and computational models, my meditation practice acquainted me with a nature of mind far beyond the confines of highly operationally-defined variables.I spent a year in intensive contemplative practice of an Indian ashram tradition, bridging the gap between science and spirituality with a phenomenological study on ego transcendence presented at The Science of Consciousness 29th International Interdisciplinary Conference.I am particularly interested in the therapeutic potential of ego-transcendent states in psychedelic medicine. The most remarkable breakthrough in psychiatric treatment in many decades represents a departure from behaviorism and is rekindling an interest in the subjective dimensions of the mind - in consciousness.If collaborating on this vision resonates with you, please get in touch with me.

Any guide to “small talk” will tell you that there are just some topics that you shouldn't broach in most social situations. One of those topics is spirituality. But should spirituality be taboo in psychotherapy? Does the direct discussion of spirituality have a place inside evidence-based practice? In this episode, Andy, Kevin, and Jenna chat about some practical ways to answer these questions and offer ideas for “going there” when spirituality might be a useful domain to explore with your clients. Andrew Santanello, Psy.D s a licensed, clinical psychologist. Dr. Santanello worked in the Department of Veterans Affairs as a PTSD specialist for over a decade before moving to his current position as a Military Behavioral Health Psychologist, PTSD subject matter expert, and National Cognitive Processing Therapy trainer at the Center for Deployment Psychology.Although Dr. Santanello has extensive expertise with "second-wave" CBT interventions such as CBT-D, Prolonged Exposure Therapy, and Cognitive Processing Therapy, his passion for "third-wave" behavioral interventions, such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, is a common thread throughout his professional career. His professional interests include dissemination and practice of Evidence-Based Psychotherapy with an increasing focus on mechanisms of change and process-based psychotherapy, psychological resilience, and the intersection of behavioral science and mindfulness-based approaches to alleviating human suffering.In addition to his work with the CDP, Dr. Santanello is an active member in the Military Special Interest Group and Mid-Atlantic Chapter (MAC) of the Association for Contextual Behavioral Science (ACBS) and maintains a small private practice in Baltimore, MD.Resources mentioned in this episode: (Didn't mention this specifically in the episode, but I think that it is worth including.

Slot machines, phobias and superstitions, dog training techniques, cures for insomnia... behaviorism has something to say about all of these (and much more!). The scope and ambition of B.F. Skinner's behaviorism rivals that of Freud's--except Skinner wanted nothing to do with the "mind" (or anything else he couldn't observe in a lab). How successful was this program of research? What did it get wrong? Is everything learned through mere associations and reinforcement? And where do Paul and David stand on the big debate between nativism (the idea that the mind comes equipped with knowledge) and empiricism (the idea that all knowledge comes from experience)?
