The work of B. F. Skinner and a host of others, first in the laboratory with experimental animals and then in a wide range of human service settings, has shown that many human performance problems, previously found to be extremely difficult and often simply not solved by traditional approaches, can be solved and in relatively simple and practical ways.
The key word is behavior. The process is behavior analysis. Other terms, such as operant conditioning, behavior modification, and contingency management, may also be used, and they mean about the same thing. This book seeks to acquaint nursing personnel and others working in the health care field with the rudiments of behavioral analysis and with procedures and principles to follow in applying behavioral analysis to a range of problems in their daily work.
Since 1964 we have been working with behavioral methods in health care settings. We have been testing the methods with a wide range of patient management problems. We have been teaching others how to use them. We have been involved also in the process of getting their use established in settings unacquainted with or nonresponsive to their use." —Preface  aAdult  xApuhin, Mercy MilagrosyCollege of NursingzNursing  aText in English  aBehavior modification.  aFordyce, Wilbert E.,eauthor.  2ddccBK  cLeslie [new]d06/11/2026  c15380d15380  00102ddc4070aUCBL_MAINbUCBL_MAINcSUBJ.REFd2026-06-11l0o616.891 B45 1973p3UCBL000006621r2026-06-11w2026-06-11ySR
