A Clockwork Behavior Analysis: Bobby Newman Discusses Myth and Reality Regarding Behavior Analysis, Crime and the Famous Anthony Burgess Story

Criminal Behaviorology A Clockwork Behavior Analysis: Bobby Newman Discusses Myth and Reality Regarding Behavior Analysis, Crime and the Famous Anthony Burgess Story A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess is a controversial and intriguing novel about a violent, delinquent young man who is subjected to a radical conditioning procedure with frightening results. The 1963 book provides an image of a near future world that could be described as unique, humorous, dramatic and disturbing. In this podcast I interview Dr. Bobby Newman regarding his 1991 article on the Anthony Burgess fictional work, and how it has influenced the perception of behavior analysis. Show Highlights: - An explanation of what Burgess was trying to convey with his writings and how his vision was shaped by a devout Catholic faith. - The question of free will becoming significant in a story like this. What is the behavior analytic view on the concept of free will? - Behavior analysis, instead of crushing freedom (as depicted in certain fictional stories) could be the pathway to liberate us from environmental contingencies that have trapped us. - Evidence for how behavior analytic techniques have helped reduce recidivism among juvenile delinquents. - How psychology and behavior analysis are portrayed in Clockwork. - How behavior analysis has portrayed itself to the public.
