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

We are currently recruiting for two positions on the BG SIG committee: 1.

Social Media Manager: Involves creating and scheduling posts on social media (mostly Facebook), including news and updates from the committee, publicising events and sharing research. No experience necessary for either role (although proficiency with social media needed for social media manager role) and you do not have to be working or have experience in behavioral gerontology to apply- just an interest in ABA with older adults and the willingness to volunteer your time!Please contact us to apply or email bgsig.chair@gmail.com to have a chat and see if you'd be a good fit for either role. ...
