Behavioral Gerontology SIG

Behavioral Gerontology SIG

Behavioral gerontology is the application of behavior analysis to aging and age-related issues.

Happy Monday everyone! To celebrate the launch of Enrich, I have 1.5 free CEUs available for you! I gave a little teaser about this a couple of weeks ago- a really interesting recording of a discussion with Prof Karola Dillenburger all about how we understand bereavement from a behavior analytic perspective. This is an area that absolutely fascinates me and I think there's so much more that we are Behavior Analysts can and should be doing to bring this understanding in our work with clients of all ages, from young children experiencing loss of a grandparent, people with ID losing aging parents and even older adults with dementia mourning spouses who passed away years ago. Thanks so much to Karola for doing this webinar with me, I really hope you enjoy it! Please share far and wide with anyone you think might be interested. Link in comments ... See MoreSee Less
