    In this 2026 Halloween special, we want to examine the illusive concept of diagnosis, using what some consider to be the first science fiction novel. Frankenstein is the doctor. The creation of the doctor is the monster. However, the monster is what we call Frankenstein. Whatever you want to call it, in this episode we will examine the possibility Dr. Frankenstein’s creation could be diagnosable using the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition (DSM-V). Alternatively, perhaps we could look at the problems the monster has using a behavior analytic point of view.


    Highlights:


    • Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley. How an upbringing centered on science and human rights shaped the well known work of literature.
    • The 1931 movie. The monster’s struggles with impulse control, language, and correct interpretation of social cues.
    • A reading of Priyanka Jain’s Monstrosity (2014) paper and the various interpretations of the Shelley story.
    • Diagnosing the monster using the DSM-V-TR. A look at each of the criteria.
    • The Book of Woe by Gary Greenberg. A critical examination of the DSM.
    • What can diagnosis do for behavior analysis?

    In this episode, we cover a recent presentation where I included a good portion of the kitchen sink. The kind of work one might do in forensics and ABA, a little more on competence to stand trial, and also public speaking, social validity, intimate partner violence, and some general information on how to apply what we know in this unique specialty of forensic and behavior analysis.


    Highlights:

    • Different forensic settings where ABA can be applied
    • The challenge of implementing ABA in forensic settings
    • The “other forensic psychology” = Public speaking
    • Fitness to stand trial
    • Social validity and social significance
    • Intimate partner violence
    • The challenge of establishing cause and effect relationships - Forensic Behavioral Case Conceptualization
    • Generality in forensic settings
    • Looking at problems from a “systems” perspective

    Highlights:

    This interview focused on the importance of improving supervision in behavior analysis, with Dr. Weinberg discussing the upcoming comprehensive book on behavior analytic supervision co-authored with Joseph Catilli and Lynn Connor. Mike emphasized the need for evidence-based supervision and highlighted the current gaps in training, particularly in case conceptualization and interdisciplinary collaboration. He shared examples of complex cases where medical and neurological issues influenced behavior, stressing the importance of recognizing the limits of behavioral interventions. The conversation also covered the high rates of burnout among behavior analysts and the need for a restorative model to address supervisor burnout. Dr. Weinberg proposed the development of a structured system for supervised experience placements, similar to APA's model in psychology, to improve the quality of supervision and training in the field. We discussed the challenges of preparing new BCBAs for complex cases and the potential for rotations in various settings to broaden their experience. The book aims to serve as a comprehensive resource for universities and practicing behavior analysts.

    Highlights:

    This is the third episode in a three-part series featuring Dr. Jerrod Brown. Following up on our discussion of Forensic Neuroscience, Dr. Brown introduces us to the tasty topic of nutritional neuroscience. We cover the Dan White case from San Francisco, California in the 1970s. Mr. White murdered Mayor George Moscone and Supervisor Harvey Milk, after a series of disputes. In the years since many have scoffed at White’s lawyers who argued his poor diet led to physiological state where the defendant was suffering from a diminished ability to make decisions (i.e., “Twinkie Defense”). Could there have been something to that idea? Join us for this detailed discussion of how nutrition helps conduct our behavior. Contact Dr. Brown at [email protected] for further information on this topic. He will provide a copy of the comprehensive nutritional neuroscience article to anyone who emails him.


    Highlights:

    - “Twinkie defense”: The Dan White case overview

    - Diet and criminal behavior connection

    - Lead paint

    - Prison diet and health impact

    - Circadian rhythms and their impact on health and behavior

    - The basics of neurotransmitters, neurohormones, and the HPA axis

    - The literature on lifestyle medicine and therapeutic lifestyle changes

    - Community partnerships and programs like community gardens and horticulture therapy

    - Criminal responsibility in light of nutritional neuroscience. Do we not choose what we eat?

    In 1982, America was in the grip of terror where an unknown assailant was poisoning Tylenol capsules with cyanide. Unsuspecting victims innocently tried to treat their ailments with a common pain medication, and ingested a fatal dose. We still feel the impact of these murders in the form of mandatory safety seals on medicine, milk, candy, and virtually every other kind of consumable product. In this episode Dr. Joseph Cibelli, a forensic psychologist, may have solved the case as an investigator, specialist, and the son of the possible Tylenol poisoner.



    Highlights:


    - Dr. Cibelli’s new book about the Tylenol poisonings.

    - A deathbed confession by Dr. Cibelli’s father while on hospice.

    - In Arlington Heights, Illinois, three members of one family are poisoned by Tylenol capsules. Three “martyrs.”

    - The broad concept of psychopathy.

    - The possible Tylenol poisoner’s experience of being accidentally poisoned by medicine in his own childhood. “I tasted death, and I don’t know that I was ever the same."

    - How Dr. Cibelli started putting the clues together at the time of the poisonings.

    - Possible “practice runs” of the poisonings done in advance of the known murders.

    - How it was discovered, early on in the case, that Tylenol capsules were used in the poisonings.

    - Dr. Cibelli’s “old school” method of geographic profiling.

    - The possibility that DNA, or other forms of forensic investigation, could solve the case all these years later.

    - The right to free speech in this day and age where information about poisonings and mass murder are described, point by point, in writings available to anyone.

    Once a student. Now I lecture. I graciously accepted this opportunity to speak at my alma mater. I hope this lecture serves as an introduction to this field. As I have discussed in previous episodes, there are many different areas to cover in this subspecialty. I did not include the questions from students, but one can deduce from my answers what the focus is. Also, from the highlights below.



    Highlights:


    - Literature in support of using ABA in Forensic Psychology

    - Association for Behavior Analysis International Special Interest Groups

    - Different forensic settings where ABA can be applied

    - The challenge of implementing ABA in forensic settings

    - “Fitness” or competency to stand trial

    - Social validity and social significance

    - Measurement of the presenting problem, as best we can do

    - Generality in forensic settings

    - The systems perspective when it comes to solving problems

    - Q & A (Just the “A” rather)

    Towards the end of 2025 I was invited on a panel to discuss applied behavior analysis and scope of practice. My specialty area had to do with (you guessed) crime and behavior analysis. I saved my modest contribution, and will present it here now. Just my point of view. Enjoy.



    Highlights:

    - My beginnings in the field, and where I see the combined specialties of crime, forensics, and behavior analysis at this point in time.


    - How graduate students can prepare themselves for their own work in this area.


    - Inpatient care, and how behavior analytic interventions can gain greater acceptance.


    - Other licenses and qualifications (in brief before the camera power ran out).
