Treatments based on applied behavior analysis (ABA)—an applied science of human behavior—have been increasingly recognized in public policy, both at the federal and state levels. Despite this recognition, however, the relative newness of the science often raises questions about the nature of the treatment approach and the qualifications and regulation of its practitioners. Thus, the present article is a primer on the features of ABA most relevant to public policy stakeholders, including professional certification, licensure, and workforce expansion.

Applied behavior analysis (ABA) is a widely studied and often used approach to working with human behavior. However, there are numerous myths surrounding what ABA is, who is it for, and how it is implemented. The purpose of this article is to identify, explain origins of, and dispel seven common myths about ABA.

We analyzed the frequency of publications on aversive control and publication trends concerning specific aversive contingencies. The articles were published between 1958 and 2018 in two journals: Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior (JEAB) and Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis (JABA). We selected articles that presented at least one of the following descriptors in the title, abstract, or keywords: aversive, avoidance, escape, negative reinforcement, and punishment. We verified that the publication frequency on aversive control was higher in JEAB than in JABA until the 1990s, at which point the trend was reversed. An irregular increase has been observed in JEAB publications on the topic since 2000. The rise of applied research on aversive control is related to growing interest in negative reinforcement. This significant decrease in studies on aversive control may be related to stricter ethical regulations in research and related to the assertions of some authors to reduce the aversive control use. The increase in applied studies since the 1990s appears to be related to the greater use of functional assessments and the development of treatments for behavioral problems that result from negative reinforcement contingencies. Key words: aversive control, aversive contingencies, Behavior Analysis, publication.

Experimental Analysis Of Behavior

O presente estudo está inserido nas linhas de pesquisa que investigam a identificação do comportamento de mentir por meio da observação do comportamento verbal e não verbal. O objetivo principal foi a caracterização das pesquisas sobre a detecção de mentira por intermédio da observação, publicadas em âmbito nacional e internacional. A detecção da mentira por meio da observação das alterações do comportamento não verbal vem ganhando destaque atualmente e a bibliografia aponta que o número de informações obtidas com os métodos é maior, principalmente, quando se trata de interações em que podem ocorrer dissimulação de ideias, sentimentos e emoções. No sentido de elucidar questões pertinentes correspondentes às bibliografias no campo de pesquisa, o presente trabalho identificou, por meio de levantamento bibliográfico sistemático, estudos que abordaram a identificação da mentira por intermédio da observação do comportamento não verbal. As buscas bibliográficas sobre o tema foram realizadas nas seguintes bases de dados: Scielo, Web of Science, PsicARTICLE (APA) e ScienceDirect (Elsevier). Devido à especificidade da temática, julgou-se necessário a expansão da busca para os periódicos Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior (JEAB) e Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis (JABA), bem como referências encontradas nos trabalhos obtidos e buscas na ferramenta de pesquisa Google Acadêmico. Foram incluídos na análise 46 artigos científicos empíricos. Observou-se um aumento no número de publicações entre os anos de 1999 e 2010, e, de acordo com a análise, resultados favoráveis para a comprovação da efetividade de que a observação de comportamentos verbais e não verbais podem servir como indicativos do comportamento de mentir, facilitando, assim, sua detecção.
