- pp 225-236
TLDR
A widespread view among philosophers of language is that language use is rule-governed as mentioned in this paper, and such a claim need not be problematic. One can, for instance, direct it against distorted notions of language.

The role of acceptance and job control in mental health, job satisfaction, and work performance

TL;DR: Results indicated that acceptance predicted mental health and an objective measure of performance over and above job control, negative affectivity, and locus of control over and over.
Journal ArticleDOI

The problem of parental nonadherence in clinical behavior analysis: effective treatment is not enough.

TL;DR: An analysis of the variables associated with adherence by parents to recommendations designed to solve common childhood problems and of the contingencies that strengthen or weaken adherence might suggest strategies to improve implementation outside the clinic setting.
Journal Article

Rule-Governed Behavior and Psychological Problems

TL;DR: The concept of rule-governed behavior (RGB) was first coined by Skinner (1966) to refer to behavior essential to complex human abilities as discussed by the authors, and it was used to describe how these abilities are formed and altered.
Journal ArticleDOI

Understanding observational learning: an interbehavioral approach.

TL;DR: An overview of seminal research in the area of observational learning is followed by a consideration of common behavior analytic conceptualizations of these findings, and the interbehavioral perspective is outlined, shedding light on some difficulties with the existing behavior analytic approaches.
Journal ArticleDOI

Decisions by Rules: The Case of Unwillingness to Pay for Beneficial Delays

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe and test two characteristics pertaining to one specific rule that dictates consumers should not pay for delays, even if they are beneficial: rule invocation and rule override, and they show that money can function as the invoking cue for this rule, that the reliance on this rule can undermine utility maximization, and that this rule may be used as a first response to the decision problem but can be overridden.
