• Summary:"The third edition of this text continues to illustrate behavior analysis principles and procedures with actual application and real data, helping students acquire the conceptual and technical skills necessary to foster socially adaptive behavior in diverse individuals. The book consists of seven chapters authored by prominent scholars who first reported some of the most significant advances in behavior analysis in publications such as the Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, The Analysis of Verbal Behavior, and the Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior. In addition to updated content and the latest research, this edition includes the following: two new chapters on equivalence-based instruction and non equivalence relations (Chapters 19 and 20) build upon ground-breaking research in the field of applied behavior analysis, multiple-choice and essay-type questions, over 2,700 citations and extensive use of quotations and extracts from key publications, more than 1500 graphs display original data from peer-reviewed research, over 500 technical terms and concepts in the glossary"--Back cover
