PSY 3020 Behavior Modification
(formerly PSY 302; PSY 202; PSY 127; formerly Introduction to Behavior Modification)
The principles of behavior modification and their applications in clinical, educational and social settings are examined in depth. These include behavioral analysis and assessment, procedures for developing adaptive behaviors, reducing or eliminating maladaptive behaviors and restructuring faulty cognitions and perceptions that underlie maladaptive beliefs, feelings and actions. These evidence-based approaches form the foundations of applied behavioral analyses, behavior modification in educational, family and in-patient settings, cognitive behavior therapies and the design and management of work settings and social structures. They are readily applied to self-evaluation and improvement.
