Behavior - where the rubber hits the road
We are very good at jumping to conclusions. Psychology shows us the cognitive biases we have, particularly when judging complex and/or emotional situations. Using a behavior analytic approach helps us guard against our tendencies to jump to quick but wrong conclusion. By ensuring we have clear definitions of the behavior and observable data, behavior analysis offers a cost effective approach to positive solutions. Keeping interventions linked to data gives us evidence-based practice.
