INTRODUCTION
I
am primarily interested in encouraging students to think critically and
skeptically about all claims relating to the behavior of humans and nonhumans.
In a related manner, my teaching, research, and writing are all geared toward
promoting psychology as a natural
science of behavior.
TOP
TEACHING INTERESTS
I
teach graduate courses in
the
applied behavior analysis, as well as Introductory Psychology and History
and Systems of Psychology. My goal is to train competent behavior analysts and
critical, scientific thinkers.
TOP
RESEARCH
My
research interests are in
the area of basic learning prcesses with an emphasis on
verbal behavior. I have published research in the
experimental analysis of behavior and behavioral pharmacology (mostly
with nonhumans). More recently, I have published several articles on coneptual
issues in psychology (e.g., intelligence,
evolutionary psychology, nature/nurture, methods and theories in
psychology, and verbal behavior) as well as two books:
A Behavior-Analytic View of Child Development
and an
Introduction to Scientific
Psychology.
I have also written columns and articles in popular magazines.
