Despite being an episode equivalent of eating all of our vegetables, we had a surprisingly good time talking about how to break in to public policy discussions. Even though we hate legal proceedings. And knowing tons of rules across multiple professions. And schmoozing with others. And sitting in lobbies. But, if that sounds like your bag, we salute your work in promoting meaningful ABA policies!

FCR is amazing and all, but what can be done about the that dense schedule of reinforcement? This week we explore what the research has to say about thinning that schedule using good old discrimination cues and a boatload of gumption. Well, mostly the first part. Plus, a fabulous recent summary of everything you wanted to know about the topic courtesy of Kranak and Brown. Think of us as the audiobook version of their recent article.

Episode 273 - Schedule Thinning and FCR

This week we welcome Dr. Mallory Quinn back to the show to provide us her expertise in the health, sports, and fitness field. And when we realize we won’t get cast in “West Side Story” with only an hour of work, we decide to spend our time talking with her about supervision instead. We review what behavior analysts interested in HSF should know whether they’re starting their journey into this speciality or getting ready to teach others to practice. And while we run out of time to become prima ballerinas, Dr. Quinn shares a manual on the subject that might help us out. This episode is available for 1.0 SUPERVISION CEU.
