“…Additionally, behavior analysts use research from experimental behavior analysis (e.g., Bergmann et al, 2021;Green & Freed, 1993;Harsin et al, 2021; Socio-political awareness Critical literacy; engage students in social justice work through community projects; make explicit the power dynamics of mainstream society; share power in the classroom through personalized systems of instruction and choices in learning apply behavioral principles such as social work (e.g.,. Thyer, 1999).…”

The purpose of this paper is to describe the theory of culturally relevant pedagogy (CRP) and itsapplication to PK-12 education for behavior analysts working in schools. CRP is an educationalframework that asserts that successful teachers of African American students help their studentsgain three repertoires: a) socio-political awareness, b) cultural competence, and c) academicexcellence. The CRP framework was designed to counter the effects that racial bias has on theacademic and disciplinary experiences of some students of color. This paper suggests thatapplied behavior analysis and CRP, when used together, may strengthen educators’ efforts toreduce the effects of racism that some students of color experience. The authors first explain thetenets of CRP based on the work of Ladson-Billings (1995). Next, points of convergencebetween ABA and CRP are described. Finally, the authors offer recommendations for behavioranalysts to consider when applying CRP in schools through the provision of examples ofstrategies and tactics derived from the behavioral literature that align with the CRP framework.The framework presented in this paper has implications for behavior analysts interested inapplying culturally relevant practices to their work as educators.

The purpose of this article is to describe the theory of culturally relevant pedagogy (CRP) and its application to PK–12 education for behavior analysts working in schools. CRP is an educational framework that asserts that successful teachers of African American students help their students gain three repertoires: (1) sociopolitical awareness, (2) cultural competence, and (3) academic excellence. The CRP framework was designed to counter the effects that racial bias has on the academic and disciplinary experiences of some students of color. This article suggests that applied behavior analysis and CRP, when used together, may strengthen educators’ efforts to reduce the effects of racism that some students of color experience. The authors first explain the tenets of CRP based on the work of Ladson-Billings ( 1995a , 1995b ). Next, points of convergence between ABA and CRP are described. Finally, the authors offer recommendations for behavior analysts to consider when applying CRP in schools through the provision of examples of strategies and tactics derived from the behavioral literature that align with the CRP framework. The framework presented in this article has implications for behavior analysts interested in applying culturally relevant practices to their work as educators.

“…Although several segments of applied psychology have had fairly close ties to basic behavioral science, social work historically has not. However, Thyer (1999) noted that the clinical branch of social work has increasingly looked to the behavioral sciences for concepts, strategies, and procedures; and it has looked specifically to behavior analysis. Thyer cites evidence that "The conceptual model of behavior analysis is increasingly being represented as among the contending theories for social work practice" (p. 21).…”

“…Any particular behavior analyst might engage in any one (or more) of those roles at different times, and a few behavior analysts engage in all of them. Perhaps most important, related to Thyer's (1999) concerns, each of these four roles is an extremely valuable part of behavior analysis, and each deserves full and equal respect.…”
