BABAT and BF Skinner Student Poster Award

Poster sessions serve as hubs of innovation and discovery within the field of behavior analysis, where researchers eagerly share new findings, early-stage studies, treatment evaluations, and explorations of key concepts. These sessions are pivotal in fostering collaboration and advancing knowledge across the discipline, offering a platform for both seasoned professionals and aspiring students to disseminate their research efforts. For students, in particular, presenting a poster represents a significant milestone, encapsulating months of dedicated research and clinical experience into a concise and visually engaging format. The BABAT and B. F. Skinner Student Poster Award celebrates these endeavors, recognizing the invaluable contributions of emerging scholars and practitioners to the ongoing evolution of behavior analysis.
