This website and its resources are dedicated to:
|
| (1) promoting the understanding of the factors that affect the continued use of effective behavioral programs and |
|
| (2) the development and dissemination of an effective technology for promoting program survival. |

A
behavioral program "is not finished until the [organization]
works more efficiently as a system without further intervention...
No cultural practice [e.g., program] designed through the application
of an experimental analysis of behavior involves a behavior modifier
who remains in control" (Skinner, 1978).
|
| "We have shown that our demonstration programs can work; we must now demonstrate that they can survive" (Malott, 1974). |
"We need effective strategies of adoption and institutionalization [survival] of our behavioral interventions more than we need to increase the length and effectiveness of our list of validated behavioral interventions." (Malott, 2001)
|
| "...If a program is not used, it cannot be effective" (Baer, Wolf, & Risley, 1987). |
