If you’re anything like us, you’re probably starting to hit the pandemic wall by now. Rather than trying to white-knuckle through it, we invite you to look at what the ACT research has to offer to improve your personal psychological flexibility in these tough times. And as you’re examining your values and committed actions, perhaps the parents you’re supporting would appreciate some help with their own self-care practices. Not sure how? Don’t worry: Dr. Evelyn Gould will help us stay in the moment. This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU.

In Session 151, I chat with Dr. Nasiah Cirincione-Ulezi about a range of topics, but we spent the majority of the time discussing her recent paper in Behavior Analysis in Practice titled: Black Women and Barriers to Leadership in ABA. Nasiah is the CEO of two organizations, Ulezi, LLC and Pivot 2 Inclusion. If you haven't read her paper yet, please pause this show and go do so. It's a sobering account of some of the struggles faced by Black women in our field. Nasiah highlights her findings in this conversation, so I don't want to spoil them here in the introduction, so let's just say it's unsettling, yet necessary to hear about some of the challenges faced by Black women in our field.  Fortunately, Nasiah discusses some potential solutions, and more generally, provides us with some things to think about moving forward. In this episode, we also discussed her upcoming keynote address at this year's Virginia ABA conference, which is scheduled for April 16th and 17th. VABA is offering this event as both an in-person conference as well as a virtual experience. It you'd like to learn more, go to Virginiaaba.org, and if you sign up, use the code GOMBU to save at registration.    We closed the show out with a brief discussion of what behaviorally-based life-coaching looks like, as that's a service that Nasiah has been offering for some time. And then she closes the show with some outstanding advice for Behavior Analysts of all experience levels.  Here are the links to the resources we discussed: Ulezi LLC and Pivot 2 Inclusion.

It’s our 5th anniversary! And to celebrate, all the episodes this month have silly titles! But the topics we’ll be discussing are anything but silly. More like timely, relevant, and professionally fulfilling. First, we’ll be putting out our hot takes on the updated BACB ethics code. Then we’ll be joined by some special guests, Dr. Evelyn Gould and Tameika Meadows from I Love ABA and Dr. Josh Felver, to talk about acceptance and commitment therapy and its impact on our practice (and ourselves!) during the COVID-19 pandemic, how we can use student perseverative interests to improve learning outcomes, and the research behind utilizing mindfulness curricula in schools. Not all at once of course. That would be a really confusing episode. Wondering if you should get us a gift for our anniversary? Nothing would make us happier than seeing you over at our Patreon page so we can all get together to discuss our March Book Club topic, “Neurotribes”.

"Wouldn't it be badass if..." is the thought that launched Michelle's career in software. Throughout the podcast we talk about the power of her beliefs and how they unlocked new opportunities or could become limiting in nature. Michelle gives us a front row seat to how she came to be so successful and opens up about areas she still is striving to grow.

On today's episode I talk to comedian and writer Megan Neuringer. Originally from New York, Megan got her comedy start at UCB, where she was an official performer for over a decade.

Bang! and much more. And as a writer, she written for numerous shows including Portlandia and Netflix's new show The Fix with Jimmy Carr.

This week we chat with comedic writer/actor Megan Neuringer about how she likes FaceTime so effing much. We're talking about the video chatting application for Mac products, not the actual face time. Actual face time is just BONKERS, right? Anyway, Megan loves the thing and we think it's awkward as hell, or do we? Have a listen to find out! Megan is a total doll and a writer for The Soul Man on TV Land. She can be seen all over the TV and the movies including Kroll Show and Slow Learners!

Oh yeah! This week's episode was taped live on June 29th at the 16th annual Del Close Marathon, and what a blast it was. After sprinting a bunch of avenue blocks (because the trains were messed up) to get to UCB East on time, I was frazzled and dripping sweat, but my physical grossness did not stop Megan Neuringer and Phil Jackson from being awesome guests. By way of bios, Megan is a stand-up and house performer at UCB, who you've seen on shows like Best Week Ever and @Midnight, and Phil is a performer and currently a writer on Comedy Central's Key and Peele.Check out the website for Beginnings, subscribe on iTunes, follow me on Twitter, and check out my new gameshow podcast Snap Impression!

This time we talked to Megan Neuringer and we covered things like fallen heros, Self help books, driving, high school love, and how to get a fit tight body.

When ace improviser/stand-up/actor Megan Neuringer (@Midnight, Best Week Ever), spends some time "on the casting couch," a gaggle of great worst gigs emerge; from acting in a nightmarish New York City tour bus "ride," to summering as a dancer at a local theme park, to getting heckled by obese soccer moms, Megan's got an entire ouevre of classics.  It's an embarrassingly entertaining episode of WORST GIG EVER!

Neuringer, Allen - Variability of the operant - This tutorial will discuss how reinforced variability can help us to distinguish between elicited responses (unconditioned reflexes, Pavlovian conditioned responses, and sensations), and emitted responses (operant behaviors). Evidence will be reviewed showing that behavioral variability is sensitive to reinforcers contingent upon variability and to discriminative stimuli. Schedule-of-reinforcement effects are similar for variable and repeated operants, including concurrent and second-order schedules. Reinforcement-controlled variability is functional, as when new operants are shaped, or when creating or problem-solving. And differences in sensitivity to reinforced variability may characterize some behavioral disorders, such as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, autism, and depression. Emitted and voluntary attributes of operant behaviors will be discussed in terms of consequence-controlled variations in variability — or sensitivity of variability to reinforcement.
