Subject: [RFT] arbitrary stimuli
Hey all. I’m putting together some arbitrary stimuli for testing derived relations in kids with autism but have never done anything with arbitrary stimuli before. Would anyone mind sharing knowledge on how folks create them? Is there any empirical precedent? Thanks in advance,
Jonathan

Subject: RE: [RFT] Studies on emotional avoidance using RFT and BA
Please share that with me as well.
We have some (unpublished as yet) evidence that EA is higher in early adolescents girls and that it is more highly related to internalizing and externalizing problems for girls. Greater understanding of these gender differences are of great interest to us.

Subject: [RFT] Studies on emotional avoidance using RFT and BA
Hi all:
I'm collaborating with Michael Addis on a paper critiquing current
approaches to studying gender and masculinity with men and proposing a
more functional contextual approach. In a section on new directions,
we wanted to discuss some work on emotional avoidance using RFT,
stimulus equivalence, or behavior analysis. We would greatly
appreciate it if anyone could direct us to a review paper or some
seminal works that can aid us in our literature review.
Thank you in advance.
Best,
Matt
