Principles of Behavior Analysis by Lyle Grant

With an emphasis on human behaviour, this book presents in detail both the principles of behaviour analysis and the experimental evidence underlying them, examining the factors that make such principles effective. It focuses on actual research into human behaviour problems to capitalize on its inherent fascination for students, and provides numerous graphs which illustrate the factors contributing to the effectiveness of behaviour principles. Each chapter ends with extensive sets of conceptual exercises that teach students to correctly identify the concepts presented in the chapter, helping them to comprehend how various factors contribute to the effective use of the principles and therapies.
Evans, Annabel Ness: - Annabel Ness Evans received her PhD in cognitive psychology from the University of Alberta in 1979.
She was the Chair of the Department of Psychology at Concordia University of Edmonton from 1975 until 2013, when she retired as Professor Emerita to muddle about in her garden, ski her brains out, and basically have a really good time.
She has written two previous texts. Her Using Basic Statistics in the Behavioral and Social Sciences (2014) is in its fifth edition and is available from Sage. She has coauthored a book, Principles of Behavior Analysis (1994), with Lyle Grant.
Annabel's sons, Christiaan, Marcus, and Luke, are grown and on their own so she lives with her Havanese dog, Skye, who has shown a notable lack of interest in psychological research.
