To celebrate our 250th episode, we wanted to take a look back—-WAAAAAY back—into the history of behavior analysis. To help us delve into the dusty storage closets of the past, Dr. Mirari Elcoro joins us to examine a less-known chapter from Dr. Murray Sidman’s career when behavior analysis and neuroscience teamed up. Then we review one way to learn from history using all the old junk your unversity probably has lying around. Yes, it can do more than prop up a wobbly table.
This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU.
