In Session 309, I welcome Dr. Lyndsy Cofield, Director of Client Success at Apollo Behavior, to share her unique journey in the field of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and her groundbreaking work training law enforcement officers on autism awareness. Dr. Cofield's path into ABA began with an undergraduate degree in speech pathology, later becoming an RBT and eventually a BCBA. Today, she oversees intake and marketing at a growing clinic network in Georgia while also dedicating her research to improving police interactions with individuals on the autism spectrum. This episode explores the intersection of ABA careers, autism, and law enforcement training, highlighting the challenges and opportunities that come with bridging these worlds. What You'll Learn in This Episode Entering the ABA Field Dr. Cofield's journey from speech pathology to becoming a BCBA. Her leadership role at Apollo and overseeing client success in a multi-clinic system. Understanding Law Enforcement Culture Why credibility matters when teaching law enforcement officers about autism. Parallels between gaining parents' trust in ABA and gaining officers' trust in training. Police Academy Experiences Dr. Cofield's firsthand experiences at a Citizens Police Academy: ride-alongs, call centers, and unit training. Surprising insights into the hidden volume of crime and emergencies in her community. Autism and Law Enforcement Training Common challenges officers face when interacting with individuals on the spectrum. Misinterpretations—such as stimming being mistaken for drug use—and how they can escalate situations. Practical strategies: slowing down, assessing intent, and waiting for backup when needed. Applying Behavior Analysis to Autism Training How ABA principles help officers understand and support autistic individuals. Tips for officers: allowing response time, keeping safe distances, and recognizing autism traits. The Blue Envelope Project and other community initiatives improving interactions. De-Escalation Training in Action A success story from Salem, NH, where effective autism training helped officers de-escalate high-risk encounters. Why calm, compassionate approaches make a lasting impact in policing. Body Camera Footage as a Training Tool Dr. Cofield's dissertation analysis of 10 body cam videos involving autistic individuals. Key officer behaviors that worked: patience, spacing, and communication. Why both lecture-based training and Behavioral Skills Training (BST) are equally effective. Ongoing Autism and Law Enforcement Research Insights from Dr. Cofield's dissertation (available on PubQuest). The need for additional studies and real-world ride-along experiences. Encouragement for ABA professionals to get involved in police training efforts. Why This Conversation Matters The intersection of autism, ABA, and law enforcement is a critical area where misunderstandings can have serious consequences. Dr. Cofield's research and practical training insights provide a roadmap for safer, more empathetic, and more effective police interactions with autistic individuals. Whether you're an ABA professional, law enforcement officer, or advocate for the autism community, this episode offers practical takeaways and inspiration to make a difference.

In the kickoff to our Miracles Series, we explore two of the Bible's most jaw-dropping events — the parting of the Red Sea and the fall of Jericho's walls. In both stories, God gave instructions that seemed unusual, even impossible, yet His people experienced incredible deliverance when they obeyed in faith. What can these miracles teach us about trusting God when His ways don't always make sense?

We just got back from our 3-night preview cruise on Star of the Seas, before the ship's official launch and we have so much to share.

Comhghairdeas Féile!!Well done to all of those who planned, organised, participated in, or generally contributed to this years hugely successful Féile an Phobail. It was a colourful, imaginative, informative, entertaining, empowering and exhausting couple of weeks. This year's published programme was a weighty volume providing information on over 600 events across the City. It was a mix of  80 debates and discussions, sporting and music events, art exhibitions, as well as the carnival parade and family fun days for children and much more. The concerts in the Park were packed to capacity each night and revellers thoroughly enjoyed themselves.Gael Stair – Na h'Abair é, dean é.During Féile I had the honour and pleasure to open an exhibition in Conway Mill on the role of the Irish language and Irish language activists in the social and political history of Belfast. At the heart of the exhibition is the archive preserved by Brighid Mhic Sheáin - one of the founders of the Shaws Road Gaeltacht in west Belfast. Over five decades she diligently collected the Gael Stair archive which reveals how connected the Irish language was with the struggle for social rights, self-determination, and for a better future free from poverty and unemployment.

A water slide on the world's largest cruise ship... The Icon of The Seas - suddenly shattered... sending a river of water gushing through the hole as panicked passengers scream, "stop the slide." And we're used to seeing heists at jewelry stores and high-end boutiques. But a store selling Labubus? That's a new one. The frenzy for the plush toy monster elves has reached a point where thieves burst into a shop in L.A. and made off with thousands of dollars of Labubus. Plus, we're learning more about the sad death of Kelly Clarkson's husband at such a young age. He was only 48 and reportedly died of skin cancer....so it may surprise you to learn that after all these years of warnings how too much exposure to the sun is a leading cause of melanoma... tanning seems to be making a comeback. And the animated comedy South Park is known for its edgy humor...and in its latest episode they've targeted a satirical eye on homeland security secretary Kristi Noem. Now the Trump cabinet member known as "Ice Barbie" is hitting back… denouncing South Park as quote "lazy" and "petty."

Did Amy Lynn Bradley Get Off the Ship Willingly—Only to Be Trapped Forever? In this gripping installment of Hidden Killers with Tony Brueski, Tony and Carol Hughes dig into the most controversial and emotionally devastating theory in the Amy Lynn Bradley case: that she may have left the ship willingly, thinking it was harmless fun—only to be pulled into a human trafficking nightmare she could never escape from. Could Amy have been tricked into leaving the Rhapsody of the Seas through a crew-only exit? Did she trust someone—like “Yellow”—who suggested an “adventure” before port opened? In a time before TSA, keycards, and tight cruise security, the possibility of slipping off unnoticed wasn't as crazy as it might sound today. But what happened next may be even worse. Tony and Carol explore the psychological side of captivity: if Amy was trafficked, would she have ever felt safe enough to reach out? What if she was threatened with her family's lives? What if she had children? Could she have stayed silent out of fear—not choice? And then, there's that photo. The one sent to her family years later. The one a former FBI agent said was Amy. Heavy makeup, long hair, blurred tattoos—but unmistakable facial features. If the FBI believed it was her... why hasn't she been found? From the plausible to the gut-wrenching, this episode examines how Amy might have gotten off that ship, what may have happened after, and why we still don't know the truth. Watch. Think. Comment.

In this episode of the Behavioral Observations Podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Brady Phelps, about a topic that has perplexed, and perhaps captivated both mainstream Psychology as well as pop culture: Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID). Our wide-ranging conversation explored the intersection of behavior analysis, mental health, and trauma, with a special focus on how we can understand DID through a scientific, behavioral lens. Brady's Career Journey Brady shared how he discovered behavior analysis almost by accident as an undergrad at Utah State University, under the mentorship of Carl Cheney. After a long academic career, Brady retired in 2021 but remains actively involved in the field. He's currently developing an Experimental Analysis of Behavior (EAB) toolkit with Dr. Steve Eversole at Behavior Development Solutions, and he's also writing a textbook on learning and behavior designed to be accessible to 20-year-olds. Understanding Dissociative Identity Disorder Behaviorally We dove deep into Brady's research on DID, originally published in 2000. His goal was to approach DID from a behavior-analytic perspective, not through traditional psychoanalytic theory. As we discussed, DID has evolved from being characterized by dramatic behavioral shifts to more subtle, self-reported identity disruptions. Brady argued that the identities themselves are better understood as reified constructs—products of distorted tacting that contacts reinforcement—rather than discrete psychological entities. Trauma, Dissociation, and Behavioral Function Brady emphasized the importance of not dismissing trauma reports, while also cautioning against assuming trauma automatically leads to DID. We talked about avoidance behaviors, escape contingencies, and how dissociation might function as a response to overwhelming experiences. He brought up examples like Cotard's Syndrome to show how distorted tacting can manifest in extreme ways. Rethinking Diagnostic Criteria for DID We discussed research into amnesiac barriers, such as the Concealed Information Test, which shows people might learn something even if they claim not to remember it. These findings, Brady suggested, should prompt a re-evaluation of how DID is diagnosed, particularly the differences between the Post-Trauma Model and the Social-Cognitive Model—the latter of which emphasizes social reinforcement and therapist influence in shaping alternate identities. Therapy Techniques and Reinforcement Contingencies Brady detailed how some therapists use techniques like “roll calls” or even suggesting names to clients in session. While these methods may sound extreme, they reflect how therapist behavior can inadvertently reinforce identity fragmentation. We also discussed Robert Kohlenberg's 1973 study on behavioral repertoires, which demonstrated how social reinforcement shaped client behavior across different identity presentations. The Sybil Case and Media Influence We revisited the infamous Sybil case, which helped popularize DID in the 20th century. Despite being exposed as fraudulent, Sybil's story continues to shape public and clinical views of the disorder. We also talked about more recent media portrayals—from TikTok to a 2023 Scientific American article—and how social media can reinforce the performance of alternate identities, especially among vulnerable populations. Behavior Analysis in Mental Health Brady and I wrapped up with a discussion on how behavior analysts can contribute to mental health conversations. He encouraged new BCBAs to collaborate with non-behavioral colleagues while staying rooted in behavioral principles.
