"This book is one of the most well-written and up-to-date textbooks on radical behaviorism (the scientific philosophy behind behavior analysis/ABA), as well as methodological behaviorism, and operant and respondent conditioning. I also have two minor critiques.
First, the text states that ABA is mainly concerned with operant conditioning procedures. While this is often the case, ABA can involve respondent conditioning principles as well. The experimental analysis of behavior is NOT a synonym for behavior analysis. Rather, it is a form of behavior analysis that refers to the principles of behavior, which includes functional analysis, operant and respondent conditioning, stimulus control, stimulus generalization, and habituation (the core philosophy behind systematic desensitization).
Second, the text implies that behavior modification is synonymous to behavior analysis. Although the former term is still used by many mental health practitioners today, it is really the older term for ABA (see Mace, 1994; Walsh, 1997; Pelios, Morren, Tesch, & Axelrod, 1999; Mace & Critchfield, 2010). Even though behavior modification used to be synonyms with ABA, the name changed to ABA because the research and practice shifted briefly in the late 1950s and again from the late 1970s to early 1980s and was more methodological rather than radical at the time. Further, behavior was changed without the use of a functional analysis, and the reinforcers were presumed. In contrast to behavior modification--with the goal of changing behavior without having guidelines over how behavior was changed, behavior analysis is more strict in that there ALWAYS needs to be a more thoroughgoing analysis of the behavior-environment interactions before trying to alter behavior--even if this means allowing the client to choose the reinforcer as opposed to being presumed or only using flooding (prolonged exposure therapy) for phobias as a last resort under a functional behavior assessment or FBA since systematic desensitization (graduated exposure therapy) is more radical and behavior analytic than flooding is).

Introduction to Learning and Behavior Russell A Powell P Lynne Honey Diane G Symbaluk Books Reviews
- The book is well-written and provide an good amount of information for students starting to learn about learning and behavior. It does get a bit boring at times, but you just have to push yourself through it. There is quite a few interesting case studies and examples to help understand the concepts.
- Great book, I love how it’s written in a way that allows you to interact with the text, after ever couple of pages it will have a small section for you to answer questions about what you just read.
- Product came in great condition! The pages are beautiful. There was a tiny tear at the spine of the book but other than that it's great.
- Book was delivered in great condition.
- Very cheap and shipped really fast. Definitely impressed and will continue to order my books from here!
- exactly what i expected
- Nice product wish I could keep it.
