  • Behavior analytic standards have always been more objective, exacting, and precise.

    “Behavior analytic standards have always been more objective, exacting, and precise (Baer et al., 1968).”

    From Concerns About the Registered Behavior Technician™ in Relation to Effective Autism Intervention (2017) · cites this paper as Baer et al., 1968

    The Applied and Analytic sections call for precise measurement, reliable observation, and exact descriptions of procedures. They do not establish that behavior-analytic standards have always been more objective, exacting, or precise than other standards; the paper says applied research may meet a lower standard for demonstrating experimental control than laboratory research. Page numbers are unavailable in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.86)

  • Behaviorism did not disappear after the cognitive revolution; it developed into robust methods for behavioral change in applied disciplines such as applied behavior analysis and behavior therapy.

    “When the cognitive revolution dethroned behaviorism in academic psychology during the second half of the 20th century, behaviorism did not disappear. Instead, it developed into a robust set of methods for accomplishing behavioral change in a variety of applied disciplines such as applied behavior analysis (Baer et al. 1968) and behavior therapy (Wolpe 1958).”

    From Evolving the future: Toward a science of intentional change (2014) · cites this paper as Baer et al. 1968

  • A large family of efficacy and effectiveness designs now exists, including designs that randomize across persons, places, and time, and nonrandomized designs such as pre-post comparisons, regression discontinuity, time series, and multiple baseline comparisons.

    “There is now a large family of designs for testing efficacy or effectiveness that randomize across persons, place, and time (or combinations of these) (15), as well as designs that do not use randomization, such as pre-post comparisons, regression discontinuity (106), time series and multiple baseline comparisons (5).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
