Analysis of Behaviorism – methodological behaviorism
Description
You have had the opportunity to review all of the theories of behaviorism that were influenced by Skinner’s views of overt and covert behaviors. Critically analyze methodological behaviorism.
In your paper, address the following:
• Within your analysis, include a synthesis of Skinner’s radical approach to behaviorism with methodological behaviorism theory. DO NOT attempt to synthesize radical behaviorism with a process that derives from theory, like operant or respondent conditioning.
• Address the limitations and delimitations of methodological behaviorism, considering how it may or may not align with applied behavior analysis (ABA).
o Limitations are areas of weakness, missing information, or missing considerations.
o Delimitations are variables outside the boundaries of the theory. These aren’t limitations or weaknesses, but rather variables that are specifically not addressed.
• Address the criticisms and possible deficits methodological behaviorism relative to ABA.
• Describe how methodological behaviorism might be realigned or adjusted for use in applied behavior analysis (ABA).
• Evaluate costs and benefits of using methodological behaviorism in application of ABA.
