Abstract: The globalization of behavior analysis continues to grow as evidenced by the number of individual members and affiliate chapters of ABAI outside of the United States that have doubled over the past decade. Today there are over thirty countries represented within the organization, many of which have developed their own international affiliate chapters and regional meetings. Many of these have even begun their own peer-reviewed publications in behavior analysis. However, behavior analysis is more than a developing field. It is a developing perspective unrestricted by the boundaries that define other disciplines, research and professional practices. This panel is a mixture of experts who will demonstrate and discuss not only a variety but extraordinary ways that this philosophy of behavior can be utilized to cross international borders, and work towards helping the world. |
