Criminal Behaviorology \n\nA Clockwork Behavior Analysis: Bobby Newman Discusses Myth and Reality Regarding Behavior Analysis, Crime and the Famous Anthony Burgess Story\n\nA Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess is a controversial and intriguing novel about a violent, delinquent young man who is subjected to a radical conditioning procedure with frightening results. The 1963 book provides an image of a near future world that could be described as unique, humorous, dramatic and disturbing. In this podcast I interview Dr. Bobby Newman regarding his 1991 article on the Anthony Burgess fictional work, and how it has influenced the perception of behavior analysis.\n\nShow Highlights:\n\n-\tAn explanation of what Burgess was trying to convey with his writings and how his vision was shaped by a devout Catholic faith.\n\n-\tThe question of free will becoming significant in a story like this. What is the behavior analytic view on the concept of free will?\n\n-\tBehavior analysis, instead of crushing freedom (as depicted in certain fictional stories) could be the pathway to liberate us from environmental contingencies that have trapped us.\n\n-\tEvidence for how behavior analytic techniques have helped reduce recidivism among juvenile delinquents.\n\n-\tHow psychology and behavior analysis are portrayed in Clockwork.\n\n-\tHow behavior analysis has portrayed itself to the public. \n\nA Clockwork Orange on Amazon:\nhttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0393341763/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0\n\nDr. Newman\u2019s 1991 article on Clockwork:\nhttps://link.springer.com/article/10.5210/bsi.v1i2.169\n\nDr. Newman Runs in the St. Jude Marathon for Charity (\u201cTeam ABA\u201d):\nhttps://fundraising.stjude.org/site/TR?fr_id=109867&px=4127584&pg=personal\n\nHero Rats Sniff out Landmines:\nhttps://www.apopo.org/en\n\nLook up CrimBehav on Facebook: facebook.com/CrimBehav\nCriminal Behaviorology on Blogger. \n\nCB Podcast Sites:\n\nhttps://criminalbehaviorology.podomatic.com\nhttps://anchor.fm/criminalbehaviorology\n\nhttps://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/criminal-behaviorology/id1441879795?mt=2&uo=4 \nhttps://www.google.com/podcasts?feed=aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy83MzY4OWFjL3BvZGNhc3QvcnNz\nhttps://open.spotify.com/show/5VM7Sjv762u7nb91YWGczZ \nhttps://www.breaker.audio/criminal-behaviorology \nhttps://overcast.fm/itunes1441879795/criminal-behaviorology \nhttps://pca.st/Q38w \nhttps://radiopublic.com/criminal-behaviorology-GEv2AZ \nhttps://www.stitcher.com/podcast/anchor-podcasts/criminal-behaviorology\n\nPlease write a review on any of our podcast sites listed above.
