Internet communication is becoming an important tool for both
academic and clinical areas in psychology and behavior analysis.
The Internet, a confederation of thousands of computer systems
covering the entire globe (Plaud, 1996b), can significantly
enhance behavior analysis in at least three major areas: (a)
information exchange and communication among behavior analysts
through list servers, (b) dissemination of empirical data and
commentary through on-line journals and information servers, and
(c) promotion of programs and services in behavior analysis. This
commentary provides specific examples in each of these areas and
addresses the basics of connecting to the Internet.
