I have red this RFT-book and I am sold. I am an welfare-nurse coming from that traditional behavior analysis branche in Norway and wish this pragmatic and...

Rune - I would not have said it was a good idea to invent too many (deictic) relations. The object here is to describe patterns of relational responding with...
Hi Rune -- I think you raise an interesting question, but in my view it collapses into an empirical issue. In principle, the number of relational frames is...

Perhaps the difference, therefore, is that values in Buddhism are proscribed a priori (thus enters some element of dogmatism), whereas ACT seeks to help the...

There are as many relations as we can imagine (by definition, if you think about it). From an RFT perspective I think it is good to keep the number of types or...
Dear researchers! Thank you for those generous answers! I should know. Your book doesn't refer to Relational frames as if they where tecnical terms but uses...

In the philosophy world in which I grew up the word "value" meant "a justified preference." That is why humans have values and other animals do not. However,...
However, and this is extremely important, relational frames are analytic tools, not ontological categories. OK, I do get they are not ontological categories...
Not sure about this at all. 1. I don't think values are based on justification -- when pushed on what you value "just 'cause" is the ultimate justification...

No. There is no event. YOU divided it into "an action." But the actual stream of actions is indivisible without a divider. Even "objects" or not things. Where...
I now see a 4th way to get multiple messages. Hank cced this to both RFT and ACT lists, but posted it to the RFT list. That way of ccing means it goes to RFT...
A list member just sent me a generic question folks should know about. I will cross list this to the ACT and RFT lists so (sigh) some of you will get this very...
Hi All: I have been meaning to send this to the list for comment. One of my colleagues at Oregon Research Institute, Keith Smolkowski, sent me his concerns...
I've not yet met a DI person who likes RFT. To my mind, so much the worse for DI. I sat down with Ziggy 8-9 years ago and walked him through RFT, suggesting...
Since I wrote some of the stuff on the "advantages of RFT" page to which Keith is referring, am particularly interested in the application of RFT to education,...
I personally find the following quote from Keith rather brazen: "A good DI teacher can nearly always predict the way kids have learned misrules, and they can...
I was just about to reply to the DI post, when I read Steve's and JT's replies (given the time difference we're always 8 hours+ behind US exchanges on the...

Yikes--looking back at my post I find my quotes rather brazen. Sorry folks (especially Keith, if you're out there)--chalk it up to indigestion and...
Just reread my answer. While the substance is fine, the tone is awfully grouchy. Sorry about that ... my kids can tell you I was grouchy all day long. Tired....
Curiously, since I am interested in ACT/RFT I also had an interest in DI and the constructional approach of Israel Goldiamond (BTW his key paper is now ...
I certainly agree with the need for greater cooperation (see previous post on this). In fact, this is already underway. And this should not be surprising --...
