Episode 90 - Social Validity

We behavior analysts work hard, right? We effect behavior change for our clients and feel pretty darn good about our efforts. But what happens if our clients don't actually like anything we've done? This week we're talking all about social validity, how to make sure we're paying attention to it, and why some BCBAs might be a bit wary about it.
