Verbal BehaviorEmpower! Book and CDVerbal Behaviorby B.F. Skinner, 1958, Soft Cover, 478 pages.EMPOWER! Book and CD by Beth A, Soeder, M.A., CCC/SLPand Catharine M. Critz, Ph.D., CPNP, 2003, 166 pages.BooksThis book laid the foundation for the development of thePECS training protocol. The book presents a systematicfunctional analysis of language based on the principlesof learning. Skinner proposes that verbal behaviorrequires an analysis separate from other behavior becauseit does not operate on the environment directly, butrather through other people in a verbal community. Hedescribes several parts of communication defined by theirrelationship to specific antecedents and consequences,from the simplest features of language to its mostcomplicated aspects. He also stresses that verbal behavioris defined by its function, not by its form- thus, for example,PECS permits any user to engage in verbal behavior.Read the chapter by Andy Bondy in the PECS TrainingManual, 2nd edition (page 4) for a thorough discussionon PECS and Verbal Behavior and attend our workshop:Analyzing Language and Communication.Verbal Behavior VBB $20A Picture’s WorthEMPOWER! is the book every education professional needs to work effectively with individualson the autism spectrum or with limited communication skills in the classroom environment.
