Herrnsteinwasalsoworking off of Thorndike’s Law of Effect • Herrnsteindiscoveredwhatisnowcalled the Matching Law • Matching Law iscomplicated, but I willattempt to explain • Matching Law leads to DifferentialReinforcement

  8. Step 4: Skinner Ain’tAlone • Skinner helped to defineAppliedBehaviorAnalysis • Herrnsteinhelped to define the ExperimentalAnalysis of Behavior • JABA and JAEB (the twinjournals of BehaviorAnalysis)

  9. Step 5: Lovaas • O. IvarLovaashad an idea! What if wetakewelearnedfrom: • Pavlov • Skinner • Thorndike • Herrnstein • What if weappliedit to individualswithAutism and otherDevelpmentalDelays?

  10. Step 5: Lovaas • Nowthatyou’vereadLovaas’slandmarkstudy, let’s talk about his contribution

  11. Summary • Skinner gets a lot of credit, thoughheisonly one of a long line reseraches • Many put the official date of origin at 1913 – the year Watson publishedPsychology as the BehavioristViews It. (Requiredreading in Intern 2)

  12. Summary • As we move forward, a fluencyisexpected in the use of somecommontermssuch as stimuli, antecedent, postcedent, function, topography, response, & behavior. • Knowing the background helps.
