Clinical behavior analysis and clinical social work: A mutually reinforcing relationship.

Clinical behavior analysis (CBA) and clinical social work (CSW) have the potential to gain much from one another. The existing synergistic relation between the fields, however, is largely under-recognized, overwhelmed by the stronger disciplinary and historical associations among behavior analysis and psychology and education. This paper reviews the similarities and differences between CBA and CSW, how they have enriched each other, and the potential for greatly expanded relations between the two fields.
