Consolidación y crisis de la evaluación y modificación de la conducta
(Edições Universitárias Lusófonas, 2006) Pérez Pareja, Javier; Escola de Psicologia e Ciências da Vida
Ever since 1970 the model of assessment and modification of behaviour has undertaken a large expansion. As an outcome of such an expansion thr model has integrated different variables, as well as various diversifications to different approaches. In this way, at the moment there are so many and diverse conceptualisations, methods of investigation and techniques that it makes it difficult to find a unique diagram or postulate to unifying them all. The same diversity has made many authors formulate different integrative proposals. (E.g. "The Integrated Behavioural Model" by Carrobles, 1985) Independently of this type of proposals, the majority of the authors that define themselves to be in accordance to this model realise that there are common aspects between the ones that emphasise the application of the experimental method and the ones that emphasise on the functional analysis of behaviour. From our own point of view and just as appointed by Kazdin, 1982, the assessment and modification of behaviour could be defined as the evaluation and intervention based on the experimental findings of the Psychology and other related sciences.
