Addressing Diversity, Bias, and Racism in Applied Behavior Analysis: Reflective Practices for Behavior Analytic Professionals in Schools
Education and Treatment of Children, v47 n2 p197-209 2024
Students with challenging behaviors can be some of the most vulnerable persons in educational settings when it comes to behavioral analytic practices. The potential for bias and racism influencing behavior analysis is elevated if those observing and evaluating behavior are not cognizant of cultural and societal differences. Behavior professionals should strive for cultural understanding to perform their work in a nonbiased manner. This includes being vigilant in the pursuit of cultural competence and sociopolitical awareness. One vehicle for growth and development in behavior analytic practice is through self-reflection. The current article examines the constructs that can lead to nonbiased and antiracist behavior analysis through self-reflective questioning. In particular, we introduce the self-reflection tools of the ABC Diversity Iceberg, and Multicultural Reflective Behavior Analytic Practice to minimize biases and support antiracism in behavioral observation and analysis.
