Horner, R. H., & Harvey, M. T. (2000).
Review of Antecedent Control: Innovative Approaches to Behavior Support, Edited by J. Luiselli and M. Cameron.
Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis,
33, 643-651.
This review identifies antecedent manipulation and the role
of establishing operations as primary themes of the book as
well as crucial elements in the design of a broadly applicable
behavior support technology. The discussion of the book's
thematic treatment of these elements highlights the traditional
importance of elaborate antecedent interactions within the field
of behavior analysis and welcomes researchers' efforts
to broaden their credibility and influence through comprehensive
and durable applications of behavior support technologies in
a variety of natural settings. The reviewers rate the book as
representative of the most recent developments and directions
within applied behavior analysis.
