Association for Behavior Analysis International

BFSR is the oldest SIG in ABAI. BFSR members engage in theoretical, conceptual, and empirical analyses of significant social issues related sustainability, economic and social justice, violence, health and wellness, political systems, culture, among others. In the business meeting, the BFSR planners will report on our active projects, including (a) the Matrix Project which is oriented toward increasing preparation and opportunities for behavior analysts to engage in work related to major social issues, (b) international outreach, (c) social media presence, (d) education initiatives, and (e) sustainability initiatives. Discussion of opportunities for participation will follow these brief reports.

Founded in 1982, the Organizational Behavior Management (OBM) Network exists to develop, enhance, and support the growth and vitality of Organizational Behavior Management through research, education, practice, and collaboration. We seek to promote the field of behavior analysis as it is applied to organizational performance improvement through our Chris Anderson Student Research Grant; the Journal of Organizational Behavior Management; our biannual conference, held in different cities across the nation; our newsletter, published three times annually; and online resources offered through our website, www.obmnetwork.com.

The BAAMS business meeting is held so that representatives of the BAAMS Executive Committee can update attendees on the activities of BAAMS over the past year, as well as on goals and activities for the future. This meeting is open to all current members of the Behavior Analysis Association of Mississippi and to those who are interested in joining!

Teaching Behavior Analysis (TBA) purpose is to improve the teaching and learning of the principles and applications of behavior analysis in any setting in which those activities occur. The purpose of this meeting is to update members and potential members on the activities of the TBA SIG. We will set goals for the upcoming year and allow time for individuals to network. All are invited to attend. You do not have to be a member of the TBA SIG. Anyone interested in the teaching of behavior analysis in all environments is welcome.

In this meeting I will describe recent trends in JEAB content, changes to submission requirements, the future of the journal, etc. Authors and potential authors are encouraged to attend and ask questions.
