Towards the end of 2025 I was invited on a panel to discuss applied behavior analysis and scope of practice. My specialty area had to do with (you guessed) crime and behavior analysis. I saved my modest contribution, and will present it here now. Just my point of view. Enjoy.
Highlights:
- My beginnings in the field, and where I see the combined specialties of crime, forensics, and behavior analysis at this point in time.
- How graduate students can prepare themselves for their own work in this area.
- Inpatient care, and how behavior analytic interventions can gain greater acceptance.
- Other licenses and qualifications (in brief before the camera power ran out).

All four authors of an upcoming book on supervision join the podcast for this overview of supervision. This extraordinary panel focused on behavior analytic supervision, featuring a discussion between Michael, Valeria, Lynn, and Joe about the challenges and best practices in supervising behavior analysts. This is a follow up to our discussion with Joe and Michael from the last episode.
Highlights:
The participants explored the importance of competency-based models, ethical considerations, and the need for ongoing supervision beyond initial skill acquisition. The high rate of behavior analysts leaving the field due to lack of proper support and supervision, emphasizing the need for structured training programs. The evolution of supervision practices, including the use of remote supervision and simulation models, while acknowledging the limitations of distance supervision. While supervision training is now being formally recognized by the BACB, more needs to be done to ensure effective supervision practices across the field.
Keep an eye upon for an upcoming book on behavior analytic supervision by Joseph Cautilli, Lynn Connor, and Michael Weinberg.

The horrific story of this real life vampire in the 1970s. With a little help from behavioral profiling, police captured the perpetrator and stopped him from committing future grotesque murders. What is most frightening is that such an obviously mentally unbalanced individual was unmonitored and untreated in the general public.
Highlights:
- Richard Trenton Chase, the horrific serial killer case in 1970s California.
- Robert Ressler’s book Whoever Fights Monsters, a segment on the Vampire of Sacramento case is read. The desperate search to find who was responsible.
- The so-called “organized” versus “disorganized” offender types. The disorganized concept might be the result of a perpetrator’s psychosis. How an understanding of mental illness helped in making a very accurate profile in this case.
- Profiling: How the type of income, relationships (or lack thereof), condition of his car, and even the perpetrator’s physical appearance were predicted with surprising precision.
- Ressler’s interest in such a case having occurred so recently, and the unique opportunity to go “on site” with a behavioral profile.
- The true credit profiling deserves in assisting a criminal investigation.
- An appeal written by Richard Trenton Chase: A paranoid and rambling document born of a psychotic mental state.
- Adding stimuli, in strategic ways, with the intent of catching a perpetrator.

Highlights:
- Deception, language, and forensic behavior analysis by Kodey.
- AKA, "The Imposter" - A french fraudster impersonates a missing child from Texas. His skill as a liar reaches an unimagined level in one of the most shocking cons. How did he develop the skill to fool so many, so easily? What are the circumstances around the case that help us understand how this could have happened?
- "When in Wisconsin." Jeffrey Dahmer, and the ABC of behavior. An examination of the environmental variables.
- Q&A on forensic behavioral case conceptualization.

Note: This is a bit of a “throwback” to a podcast on our old platform from 2018. It is about false accusations of sexual assault. The sound quality is a little rough, but I consider the message to be quite important. Enjoy the rerun episode.
An article in slate.com by Cathy Young (2014) reviews the importance of false rape accusations and the controversies that ensue.
A segment from Roy Hazelwood and Ann Burgess from "Practical Aspects of Rape Investigation" (1987) provide insight on how to approach such cases. The sensitive nature of this topic requires an objective and careful examination of all the factors involved.

In October of this year (2024) Philip Zimbardo passed at the age 91. After a legendary career in psychology, he is known for a very innovative study at Stanford University. A group of students, who were about to get quite a surprise, were randomly assigned be either guards or prisoners. In this episode we look back at Zimbardo’s life and the surprising outcomes of some of his most controversial research on the dynamics of incarceration.
Show Highlights:
The life and career of one Philip Zimbardo.
The BBC special on the Stanford Prison Study. Zimbardo’s inspiration from the Attica Prison uprising.
Students randomly assigned to be “guards” and “prisoners.”
The Stanley Milgram experiment on obedience to authority. Shocking results.
Guards who became sympathetic, and those who become “hardliners.”
Controversies and conclusions about this infamous study.

Lab Leak! Nicholas Wade and the Origin of SARS-CoV-2
2024/02/15
Criminal Behaviorology Lab Leak! Nicholas Wade and Origin of SARS-CoV-2
The entire interview can be found on our YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/b-uyVPAnd5I
The views of our guests do not necessarily reflect those of Criminal Behaviorology, nor our sponsors.
Nicholas Wade has written numerous books and articles on science. As the Science Editor for the New York Times (1990 to 1996) he possesses the skills necessary to sift through complicated ideas and arrive at the truth. When the COVID-19 (aka SARS-CoV-2) pandemic began, he soon began to suspect there was an unspoken truth about the origin of the virus. He found not only was there evidence this virus was not of natural origin, but there was a deliberate effort to keep such an idea from becoming part of the mainstream discourse.
Show Highlights:
- Nicholas Wade’s concern with bias in science writing.
- How he became interested in SARS-CoV-2. The sustained campaign to suppress the lab leak hypothesis.
- How SARS-CoV-2 looks and acts differently than a natural virus. The three parts of the SARS-CoV-2’s genetic structure that point to a synthetic origin.
- The 2018 DEFUSE proposal: Manipulation of the original SARS virus.
- The objections to “gain-of-function” research. How they were ignored.
- Behavioral and circumstantial evidence. The uncooperativeness of the Chinese government.
- Political polarization regarding the SARS-CoV-2 issue.
- Do we have enough evidence already?
- The harm done to the reputation of the scientific community.

The views of our guests do not necessarily reflect those of Criminal Behaviorology, nor our sponsors, if we had any.
Your gracious host took part in a webinar on August 25th, 2022. This was titled Novel Uses of ABA: Part IV. My modest contribution was on the subject of competency to stand trial (CST). This was a well attended event, with much audience participation.
Show Highlights:
What is CST and how can behavior analysis assist in the process.
Discrete trial training in learning court terms and concepts.
The use of matching cards, as well as “tacting,” and “intraverbals.”
Should behavior analysts touch the criminal justice system with a twenty-one and a half foot pole? The importance of ethics in competency restoration.
Practical issues raised in the Q&A about malingering, client populations, and how one can become involved in this area of behavior analysis.
