Saying Behavior Analysis collation come to two possibilities: the Experimental Analysis of Behavior (AEC) and Functional Behavioral Analysis (CFA). To let me try to explain these ideas taken from some articles, books and research that will be cited in detail at the end.
behaviorist psychology is a school of thought with three levels of scientific organization, which complement and feed back each other: behaviorism, experimental analysis of behavior (AEC) and the technology for the application derived from the AEC, which some authors have called behavioral engineering.
The first level refers to the philosophy of behaviorism or behaviorism itself, and understands this as a behavioral science, namely the study of the interaction between the individual and its physical, biological and social, covering a wide range of psychological phenomena at the linguistic, cognitive, emotional-motivational and sensory-motor. It is a philosophy of the non reductionist (or physiological or mentalist) that considers the human as a being interacting in a complex network, which includes other individuals and their situational environment. This is, in general, the firm foundation on which stands the behavioral architecture.
The CET is the theory, methodology, categories are formulated, analytical units, parameters, research paradigms and the laws and principles involved in managing data. The analysis is done on what is called behavioral episode or segment of conduct. The equations (for example: K = f [E, O, R, C]) involving the analysis of a specific behavioral and representative segment covering the entire spectrum organismic and situational such as: relationships established between the factors stimulus, organismic-dispositional situations, types of responses and consequences. The CET can be said to include turn itself to experimental analysis and functional analysis of behavior. The first relates to the comprehensive experimental work from which have been discovered and established the basic laws of human behavior and complex. BF Skinner developed the scientific system and is one of its main exponents. On the other hand, functional analysis has a more practical direction and applicable at the clinical, educational, social or organizational, to say the best known, and refers to the establishment of functional relationships between variables. Avoided, by the difficulties involved, the concept of "cause" as a single factor explanation and proposed the "functional relationship", understood as the covariance between the parameters (frequency, magnitude, duration, etc.). A variable with other parameters. Thus, in a strict sense, functional analysis (CFA) is to identify a subset of the functional variables (those that are important, controllable, and causal) whose manipulation results in a significant change in a particular behavior (or set of behaviors) in a person (or group of persons) individual / is.
Finally, regarding the conduct engineering involves the technological means all those working procedural, somehow related to basic research paradigms and their combinations have been developed as effective applications. Can be defined as "the application of scientific knowledge for development, improvement and management techniques for the establishment, maintenance or removal of conduct."
This is a very slight explanation of what Psychology is and what he intends to do. From these ideas are intended to give some light on what is defined as Behavior Analysis, which is probably the essence of this paradigm and what would become a scientific psychology. Behavior analysis is, first, inextricably anchored to a practical philosophy, clear and explanatory breadth, on the other, determines a rigorous application level, effective and consistent. In sum, this line of action seems the most sensible in times of great intellectual and professional irresponsibility.
The question now is whether we have tools and rigorous and reliable, scientific basis and proven. The problem now is if we use. At this point it is fair to say that this is not to "sell" the idea that behavioral psychology is the medium of exchange guaranteed for any dysfunctional situation. Doing so would defeat the proposal pessimistic on this blog. It is concerned to demonstrate their broad level of usefulness and originality at a time when more and more all speeds, where the multiplication of stimuli is overwhelming and where quality standards are becoming more miserable and vulgar. That creates a very favorable environment for those practices that are flying the "anything goes" who presume to present novel techniques that do nothing but return to old mentality and esoteric rituals should remain in the arcana of prehistory.
"To some extent the power of numbers among the people seems to support that display novel insofar as demonstrable knowledge current challenge. In this field the successful argument is always the one that caricatures parsimonious rational choice but to oppose phenomenological formulas "saviors" to preserve the Holy Grail transcendent human nature "(Montgomery, 2005).
