No tricks this month on the show unless you’re terrified of stimulus equivalence like Rob! For everyone else, it’ll be all treats for your ears with the return of a popular (?) episode format as well as a cozy fall discussion about self-care with special guest, Dr. Shane Spiker. Snuggle up with some hot apple cider, a warm sweater, and a brand new delay tolerance flow chart. Articles for October 2020 Stimulus Equivalence Sidman, M. Cresson, Jr., O., & Willson-Morris, M.

For instance, did you know that you can supervise creativity? And what does the future hold for supervision now that Zoomers are entering the work force. All this and the history of Nintendo.

Joy of joys! It’s Supervision September! All month long, we’ll be discussing topics related to supervision. Whether supervision in the schools or supervision on the job, we’re covering all the angles. And, if four whole episodes about supervision weren’t enough, we’re so excited to launch our very first Patreon to provide listeners more opportunities for exclusive episodes, discounts, and chances to meet (and maybe even podcast) with us. All that, and Jackie takes a vacation. Articles for September 2020 Navigating Supervision in the Public Schools Gibson, J.A., Grey, I.M., & Hastings, R.P. (2009).

We’ve sung the praises of functional communication training (FCT) on plenty of episodes. However, we’re in the same boat as you when it comes time to start thinning the reinforcement schedule to use FCT in real life. Luckily, Dr. Jeffrey Tiger is here to save the day by sharing recent research on improving delay tolerance procedures. Is DRA the special ingredient? Plus, another chapter in the ongoing struggle of Jackie vs. DRO procedures. Articles discussed this episode: Sumter, M.E., Gifford, M.R., Tiger, J.H., Effertz, H.M., & Fulton, C.J. (2020).
