15 Aug Verbal Operants
In this unit, you are learning about different types of verbal operants and how these are defined in the analysis of verbal behavior. For example, mands are requests and tacts are labels.
The basis of this discussion will be a conversation with someone you have had this week. Write down a conversation that occurred between you and another person that is at least six exchanges long.
- Describe each statement in your conversation. (Be sure not to violate any confidentiality laws when doing so.)
- Identify the verbal operant used in each exchange.
