This book presents the main theoretical and practical tools
provided by behavior analysis to diagnose and treat substance use
disorders. Based on the theoretical framework of radical
behaviorism, first developed by B.F. Skinner, behavior analysis
offers a distinctive biopsychosocial approach to substance use
disorders by considering both the biogenetic and environmental
influences on behaviors associated with substance use, enabling the
development of more integrative and effective diagnostic,
prevention, and treatment strategies at the individual and
collective level. The volume is divided in three parts. Part one
presents an introduction to core concepts in behavior analysis and
related disciplines, such as behavioral pharmacology, and their
specific applications in substance use disorders diagnostics and
treatment. Part two shows how different types of
behavioral-analytical clinical and social interventions can be
applied in practice to treat substance use disorders, such as:
Contingency Management Exposure Therapy Functional Analytical
Psychotherapy (FAP) Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) Acceptance
and Commitment Therapy (ACT) Therapy by Contingencies of
Reinforcement (TCR) Motivational Interviewing Finally, part three
covers special topics, such as the interfaces between neurosciences
and behavior analysis on drug use and dependence, effects of
substance use in romantic relationships and their relationship with
violence against women. Behavior Analysis and Substance Dependence
will be a valuable tool for clinical and health psychologists, as
well as other health professionals and social workers dealing with
substance use disorders, by presenting, in one single volume, an
overview of the tools offered by behavior analysis to deal with
this serious health issue.
