In this new volume in Springer-Verlag's series "Recent Research in
Psychology", Drs. Proctor and Weeks examine what has long been a
"self-asserted superiority" of behavior analysts and Skinnerian
researchers. Most behavior-analytic views derive from the
philosophy of radical behaviorism, as conceived by B.F. Skinner,
and prescribe a "world view" where environmental contingencies
determine all aspects of behavior. This view necessarily assumes
all other views to be inferior because of its world view, hence,
those subscribing to behavior analysis will tolerate no other
theory. The Goal of B.F. Skinner and Behavior Analysis examines
closely the rationale behind the Skinnerian philosophy, challenging
its validity through the author's own research.
