After listening, try a few example questions from our comprehensive study guide below, and don’t forget to comment your answers! In this episode, we explore Chapter 11 of Behavior Analysis and Learning (7th Edition) by Erin B. Rasmussen, Casey J. Clay, W. David Pierce, and Carl D. Cheney. Discover how imitation and rule-governed behavior shape human (and even animal!) learning. We discuss correspondence relations, spontaneous vs. operant imitation, the power of generalized imitation, and how rules can guide actions when direct experience isn’t enough. Whether you’re an ABA professional, educator, or just curious about behavior science, this dive into imitation and rule-following offers practical insights you can use right away. Topics Covered Correspondence Relations: Matching words and actions Spontaneous Imitation: Research with pigeons, babies, and mirror neurons Operant Imitation & Shaping: Teaching imitation step by step Generalized Imitation: When “copying” becomes a learned skill Rule-Governed Behavior vs. Contingency-Shaped Behavior Effective Rule Implementation: Accuracy, immediate vs. delayed consequences, and consistent reinforcement Joint Control: Recognizing cues and applying rules at the right time Real-World Insights ABA Practice: Strategies to teach imitation skills, from basic copying to complex tasks Behavior Change: How to structure environments so rules have real impact Motivation & Learning: Why immediate consequences often outshine distant goals, and how to bridge the gap Everyday Life: Improving follow-through on rules and instructions by addressing underlying reinforcement Whether you're an ABA professional or just curious about the science of behavior, this episode will help you understand how reinforcement schedules influence everything from habits to relationships.
