Abstract

PLAZAS, ELBERTO ANTONIO. B. F. SKINNER: LA BÚSQUEDA DE ORDEN EN LA CONDUCTA VOLUNTARIA. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2006, vol.5, n.2, pp.371-384. ISSN 1657-9267.

This writing is an homage to the work of B. F. Skinner, now that we recently celebrate a century of his birthday. Most of current psychology texts are centered in the author’s experimental discoveries without putting them in the epistemological context position that sustains them, generating a deformed image of his ideas. This writing searches to clarify some of the aspects of Skinner’s work that are more misinterpreted, in particular his epistemology, his scientific behavior and his position in front of the complex human behavior, with the purpose of fomenting a precise image of his work and his science: the Experimental Analysis of the Behavior.

Keywords : Skinner Burrhus Frederic; 1904-1990; Experimental analysis of behavior; Behaviorism; Epistemology; Conductism.
