Coordinating Behavior Analtsis and Psychiatric Services
The behavior analyst is the team member who is best prepared to demonstrate a direct link between the behavior and the environment. This will reduce the likelihood that psychotropic medications will be incorrectly used to address operant processes.

Health and Productivity at Work: Are We Using the Right Metrics?
I recently read a trifold from a fitness company describing the benefits of productivity to office workers. The message was basically this: “If you are an employer reading this pamphlet, then you, the employer, should buy a membership for your employees with the US.” …suggesting that when unhealthy workers turn into healthy workers, you can expect an increase in productivity as well.

Building and Sustaining Compassionate Relationships with Caregivers
Within certain areas of healthcare, it has been documented that treating clients with compassion and empathy can have important benefits, such as increasing patient satisfaction, enhancing treatment adherence, and improving clinical outcomes. Additionally, areas of psychology and mental health treatment have long recognized the value of the therapeutic relationship in treatment success. Behavior analysts have recently begun to articulate the importance of attending to relationships in our clinical work. For example, Taylor, LeBlanc, and Nosik (2019) proposed that engaging in compassionate and empathic responses with caregivers may enhance clients' clinical outcomes. Leblanc, Taylor, & Marchese (2019) proposed graduate programs incorporate training in these skills. This dynamic six-part webinar series will focus on emerging research in behavior analysis in building therapeutic relationships with caregivers, the skills to build these relationships, and strategies to strengthen these relationships over time. Video examples and activities will illustrate practical strategies for empathic, collaborative relationships with caregivers.
