Abstract

This chapter describes the theoretical basis of clinical behavior analysis for children: radical behaviorism, experimental behavior analysis, and applied behavior analysis. Behavioral repertoires relevant to the therapist working in this approach are proposed. The text briefly describes which topics are described and explored throughout the book, as well as clarifies popular myths about the psychotherapeutic process in this approach.
