In this presentation to the Society for the Quantitative Analyses of Behavior (SQAB) in 1998, Murray Sidman describes the development (from 1965 to 1975) of behavior-change programs implemented outside the animal laboratory to benefit humans before such application was established formally as an entity derived from the experimental analysis of behavior. The presentation illustrates the use of an inductive method in practice, where working with a fluid behavior stream entails making intervention decisions on the spot.
