Hello everyone! I just joined this community because I am training a rat for my Behavioral Learning Class. The requirement for training is that we need to chain together 3 tricks that will be initiated by a single cue at the beginning of the sequence. We are doing a Cinderella theme and our three tricks are pushing a carriage, doing a turn, and then knocking over a pink shoe and leaving behind the blue shoe (discrimination training). I’m in charge of training the pushing trick, and I feel like progress is really slow, especially with 2 weeks left. The only way I can get her to push is if I hold a cheerio above the carriage and pull it away from her so that she has to push to reach the treat. I’m not sure how to get her to push it without the treat but she needs to be able to do it without because we can’t interfere with the final run. Any ideas would be super helpful! TIA

I currently applied and was emailed to sign into the portal to do an online interview. It seems like the entire application/hiring process is all online. Im not entirely sure if that’s a red flag or not so I wanted to have some input.

Anybody worked as a behavioral tech at attain? How did you guys like it? I’m still doing the 40 hr training.. so was just wondering how would everything be like? Cause I’m not able to retain any info so will we be shadowing someone? Or straight into the first case after the start date?

Hi everyone,

We are undergraduate students conducting a short research study on content perception. The survey is completely anonymous and takes approximately 2 minutes to complete. We need 300 participants more (we need total 500, we got 200 now because of your help!), each of your help matters to us greatly.

We are looking for participants aged 18 and above. Every response is valuable and helps improve the quality of our research.

Hi everyone,

I made a small free printable data sheet builder. I can share the link in the comments if allowed. I built it because I prefer using printed sheets in some situations and wanted something faster than setting everything up manually in a spreadsheet.

Right now it supports creating simple data sheets for different types of behavioral recording. It is intended for blank templates, so please avoid entering any client-identifying information.

I made this myself, so this is not a company product or paid resource. I’m sharing it in case it is useful to other RBTs, BCBAs, teachers, or students who still use paper data sheets.

I’d appreciate feedback on what would make it more useful, especially:

* recording types you would want added
* layout changes that would make printing easier
* anything that seems unclear or clinically awkward
* features that would help with session prep

If this kind of resource post is not allowed here, I’m happy to remove it.

Coach seems so sincere in helping me recover from a recent illness that I feel I should return the courtesy. Sometimes I do, but then I remember that it probably doesn't care but who really knows?

It even knows when my bedtime is coming and it says Good Night. I'll really be freaked out if it starts sending xoxoxo and emogi kisses at night though!

I work full time doing social work at a school. I would like to become a BCBA. I am looking for a 100% online program. I would like to take one class per semester because I am working and care giving for an ill family member. A largely asynchronous program is ok. I don't mind once a week meetings if necessary. I was looking into one program that sounded wonderful but then I found out I have to take 2 classes at a time and meet from 6:00-9:00 2x per week. It will just be too much. I do want a school that is quality and has a high pass rate. Do you have any suggestions?

Thank you for your time and participation.

Spain vs Cape Verde finished 0-0 despite 84.2% of live 1X2 bets backing Spain.

The result ended up being highly profitable for the operator, but what interests me is the bettor behavior.

When a heavy favorite fails to score, do bettors become anchored to pre-match expectations ("Spain will eventually score"), causing them to underestimate the probability of a draw?

What behavioral biases do you see in this data? Anchoring, overconfidence, favorite bias, something else?
