The new Operants is here! Dr. Alice Shillingsburg, Operants Editor-in-Chief, writes: “In this issue, we see a description of educational reinforcement and other environmental arrangements to enhance the natural consequences of engaging in sports, leisure, and the arts. Included is a series of articles highlighting the applications of behavior analysis to improving sports performance in humans; the application of behavioral principles when working with classical musicians; the protective effects of enhancing leisure engagement in the aging population; and what animal studies can tell us about the role of social and leisure engagement as it relates to substance use.”
Operants continues to be a complimentary, ad-free resource for all subscribers. Written in an engaging and accessible manner, it is available in electronic format through the community website.
