Understanding Habits with Basic Research
$40.00
This course counts as 4 General-type CEUs toward recertification with the BACB, QABA, or IBAO.
How can we more effectively break unhelpful habits?
What are the circumstances that strengthen habits we want to keep?
Are habits operant behavior, or respondent?
The most essential activities of our daily lives are experienced with automated chained responses. Understanding habits allows us to strengthen helpful habits and weaken the responses we are wanting to change. A recent issue of the Journal of Experimental Analysis of Behavior (January 2024) was dedicated to organizing the basic research on habit responses so that the findings may be more readily utilized in applied contexts. Whether it is for you, your employees, or your client, the findings of applied research have relevance to the habit behaviors of everyday life.
