ABSTRACT

Recently, an emphasis has been made on the development of translational research in behavior analysis. One reason is that while the increased interest on services and interventions based on applied behavior analysis has favored the growth of behavior analysis worldwide, it is also jeopardizing the survival of basic non-human animal research. In Mexico, this problem is exacerbated because even applied behavior analysis is loathed or ignored by an increasing number of psychologists. Therefore, the development and dissemination of translational and applied research are crucial for the survival of behavior analysis in Mexico.
