Journal of Behavior Analysis in Animal Training

The mission of this publication is to address the dearth of professional, practical and understandable studies that that benefit the non-human animals who live in close proximity to human animals. The Journal of  Behavior Analysis in Animal Training (JBAAT) will publish original empirical research, replication reports, case studies, reviews, guidelines on best practices for service delivery, theoretical papers and related research. The Editorial Board welcomes submissions from behavior analysts, animal care professionals, ethologists and others. Though statistical analyses will be accepted, data from single animals must be present. Individual behavioral variation should be present. Measures of behavior should be, for the most part, direct.

Subject matter may include all topics of Behavior analysis (BA) such as have been studied in human behavior, from the principles of behavior (reinforcement, punishment, stimulus control, extinction and motivating operations) to the myriad of advanced topics in BA, including applications of behavioral momentum, stimulus equivalence, and matching law, as well as behavioral economics, behavior ecology, comparative behavior analysis and others.  It is expected that, along with original research, experimenters may strive to replicate the translational research that came from laboratories in the tradition of B.F. Skinner, where the experimental analysis of behavior set the stage for ABA with humans.
