Abstract

The evolution of bridge studies in the Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis has led to fundamental changes in the types of studies published and the methods used to analyze behavior. This evolution has led to a substantial increase in our understanding of response-reinforcer relations with socially meaningful behavior and has served as a base for the development of novel treatment models. Concerns regarding the over-representation of participants with developmental disabilities and the social validity of these studies are briefly discussed along with some future directions for research.
