Understanding

Test your understanding of philosophical underpinnings with #PTB co-founder Dana Meller as she discusses the term mentalism and its association with explanations and practices in traditional psychology. Included, Dana breaks down the three terms upon which mentalism is reliant: Hypothetical Construct, Explanatory Fiction, and Circular Reasoning.
Refer to BCBA® Task List (5th ed.) Section A-5: Describe and define the dimensions of applied behavior analysis (Baer, Wolf, & Riley, 1968).

[@rashasahili9803]

can you provide with studies where they use mentalistic approach for people with IDD

[@PasstheBigABAExam]

Hi Rasha- Thanks for watching! We focus on Behavior Analytic approaches here, and this being our context of practice, we don't have research on other methods at our fingertips.

[@anyingifa826]

Using non-mentalistic explanations for a childs behavior. How would you define that for a eloping child?

[@PasstheBigABAExam]

If by non-mentalistic you mean behavioral, then that would include describing the observable aspects of the child's behavior rather than describing the hypothesized motivation behind the behavior.
