| Abstract: The closest thing we have to a law of behavior, as gravity is a law of physics, is that behavior is a function of its consequences. Many attempts to get the public to "go green" have not applied behavioral consequences in a way that is consistent with what behavior analysis, the science of behavior, knows about how to change behavior to the point that it becomes "the new norm." In other words, how to make it last and become a habit. Whether at the individual level or the corporate level, long-term commitment to environmental concerns requires a sophisticated application of effective consequences. In this session, Dr. Lattalwill present a tool for analyzing the effectiveness of consequences in current green initiatives and a simple framework for recycling ineffective initiatives into successful ones. |
| Target Audience: BACB-certified behavior analysts and licensed psychologists. |
Learning Objectives: At the conclusion of this session, participants should be able to:
1. Understand how the phrase, "Behavior is perfectly motivated" applies to sustaining a green planet.
2. Describe why policy makers need to become skilled in functional analysis.
3. Understand that what is said to build inclusion in designing large-scale methods of behavior change must be broadened to attract diverse and currently non-aligned groups as primary owners and beneficiaries. |
