Description

This webinar with Dr. Jordan Belisle, BCBA-D, is a profound exploration of how the transformative approaches of ACT and RFT are reshaping the landscape of behavior analysis, providing new tools to address the complexities of human behavior.

In this session, Dr. Belisle introduces you to the scientific revolution that RFT and ACT are driving within the field of behavior analysis. While not yet part of the conventional behavior analysis toolkit, these approaches hold immense potential for overcoming the limitations associated with complexity and generativity in human behavior.

Attend this webinar to gain a comprehensive overview of RFT, uncovering its three main assumptions: the derivation of verbal behavior through entailment, the generality of deriving relations, and the transformation of stimulus functions. Learn how humans can derive relations between symbols and actual events, unlocking symbolic, referential experiencing. Discover the role of RFT in addressing behavior challenges linked to complex language. Those unable to derive relations often exhibit schedule insensitivity in their behavior, while unworkable rules and relational learning may contribute to experiences like depression.

Delve into the world of ACT and its profound impact on psychological flexibility. Understand how ACT interventions focus on building broad, flexible repertoires, increasing contact with reinforcers, and reducing the dominance of unworkable rules and experiential avoidance. Explore the practical applications of ACT interventions for behavior analysts, benefiting staff, learners, and practitioners alike.

As you complete through this webinar, you’ll witness how RFT and ACT are changing the scope of what behavior analysis can achieve. You’ll come to understand that psychological flexibility may be the most critical concept for behavior analysts to embrace, and that compassion is emerging as a core value within this evolving field.
