Society's Uneasy Relationship with Behavior Analysis

 

Behavior analysis often achieves astonishing outcomes in children and adults with autism and many other developmental disorders, as well as helping people with an array of challenging problems in any number of domains. And yet the attitudes of parents, professionals, journalists and other influencers in society toward behavior analysis are frequently characterized by ignorance, indifference, and even open hostility. Why does such an effective, helpful and strongly evidence-based field have this sort of public image problem? In fact, there are clear reasons why behavior analysis sometimes struggles to get the attention and appreciation it deserves. Some of these reputational challenges might be difficult to overcome, but understanding them is surely a good first step.
