The theoretical, philosophical, and conceptual issues special interest group is open to anyone interested in the scientific foundations of behavior analysis and its relations to other versions of behaviorism, the fields of psychology, and to other fields of science. From methodological issues of basic, applied, and clinical research to explanatory practices involving complex human behavior, the implications of such issues reach every aspect of behavior analysis as a basic and applied science.
This first TPC/SIG meeting will include a brief presentation by the current SIG Chair regarding the functions of TPC issues in the continuing development of behavior analysis, an update regarding recent activities of the SIG, the election of SIG officers, and a general discussion regarding possible activities and development. All behavior analysts are welcome. |
