Current food production methods in the United States (US) contribute to environmental degradation as well as food insecurity.

However, many community gardens face challenges that hinder their longevity, thereby reducing t...
Neste manifesto defendemos que é dever essencial de cada profissional analista do comportamento e cientista comportamental contextual a elaboração de análises e intervenções que sejam comprometidas com a realidade material e sócio-político-cultural nas quais seus clientes estão inseridos. Embasamos essa defesa no argumento de que considerar o compo...
Culturo-behavior science (CBS) is a developing area and recently formalized specialization in behavior science that brings together principles and techniques from behavior analysis (e.g., Skinner, 1953), behavioral systems analysis (e.g., Brethower, 2008), cultural analysis (e.g., Glenn et al., 2016), and cultural systems analysis (Mattaini, 2020)....
In this article, a history of behavior-analytic studies on culture in Brazil is presented, beginning with the pioneering work of Fred S. Keller and following its development through different phases, starting with PhD dissertations supervised by Carolina Bori in the 1970s at the University of São Paulo, and later continuing with the work by João Cl...
The experimental analysis of metacontingency manipulations is a recent addition to behavior-scientific efforts. Since the first experimental analysis of the metacontingency was published, numerous scholars have constructed new experimental strategies and tactics focused on identifying basic processes regarding cultural phenomena (e.g., when two or...
Many different fields of knowledge approach social problems such as the overuse of resources necessary for human development and survival. Joining that enterprise, behavior analysts strive for a clear description of the contingencies that select problematic cultural practices or prevent the spread of solutional patterns of behavior. This descriptio...

A particular type of self-control occurs when the conflict between immediate and delayed consequences is associated with consequences that are more favorable to either the individual or the group. In such cases, responding under the control of delayed consequences more favorable to the group can be considered an instance of ethical self-control. Th...
The Competence Management Model was introduced in Brazil by mean of Decree 5.707/2006 to guide the development of personnel in the Federal Public Administration. Although many organizations seek to implement this new management model, the concept of competence turned out to be imprecise and controversial. Besides that, little attention has been giv...

A particular type of self-control is exercised when the conflict between immediate and
delayed consequences is associated with consequences that are more favorable either for the individual or
for the group. In such cases, responding under the control of delayed consequences that are favorable for
the group is characteristic of ethical self-control...

The study assessed the production of ethical self-control repertoires in laboratory microcultures under four different macrocontingency arrangements. The experime...

The aim of this paper is to examine specific features of modern individualistic societies that contribute to "emotions" and "cognitions" becoming a matter of privacy. Although some behavior analysts identify emotions and cognitions as "private events," we argue with Skinner (1945) that cognitions and emotions are relations among events and that the...

Some factors that seem to relate to such birth may be: the lack of a greater conceptual development for a particular clinical approach for the concept of private events; the tr...
Behavior analysis distinguishes itself from other behaviorist approaches in the treatment it offers to the issue
of subjectivity, which includes the use of the concept of private events. Since behavior analysis has been
related to pragmatism, on the basis of the criteria used to validate scientifi c concepts and propositions, this
paper discusses t...
The concept of private events has been used in behavior-analytic literature as a major topic to the treatment phenomena related to subjectivity, in the context of adopting instrumentality as a criterion of truth. This paper aims to discuss uses of the concept of private events from the standpoint of Pragmatism, a philosophy in which that criterion...
