In Episode 143, we continue the conversation that started in Episode 95 with Claire Zuch on Relational Density Theory.  In Claire's episode, we dug deep into RDT and looked at ableism using this fascinating new theory.  In this conversation with Claire's co-authors and colleagues, Elana Sickman digs into gender stereotyping using RDT as a framework of analysis.  This is a fascinating conversation with far-reaching implications for addressing important problems in the world!  Continuing Education Credits (https://www.cbiconsultants.com/shop) BACB: 1.5 LearningIBAO: 1.5 CulturalQABA: 1.5 DEI Contact: lsickman@ego.thechicagoschool.edu Links: Dr. Jordan Belisle on RFT/RDT Dr. Jordan Belisle on Moving Toward Model Thinking | TCE #036https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfhWrD_5LWg Relational Frame Theory: A Basic Rundown by Jordan Belisle, PhD, BCBA, LBAhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DANpZdD5as RDT Overview https://drive.google.com/file/d/1f_dmFudatLf0rJ8_holkoeQOJl2n8sVp/view?usp=sharing Dana Palilunas  https://www.missouristate.edu/SMHBS/Psychology/PsyD/profile-display.aspx?p=DPaliliunas Rocco Catrone’s BLEND Lab https://www.linkedin.com/company/b-l-e-n-d/ PEAK Relational Training https://www.peak2aba.com/ Lifespeed Behavioral Support Chicago https://uptolifespeed.com/ Learning RFT by Nikolas Torneke https://www.amazon.ca/Learning-RFT-Introduction-Relational-Application/dp/1572249064 Behaviour Speak Podcast Episodes Referenced: Claire Zuch Episode https://www.behaviourspeak.com/e/episode-95-the-hub-lab-series-1-analyzing-stigma-and-ableism-against-autistics-using-relational-density-theory/ Vic Suarez Episode  https://www.behaviourspeak.com/e/episode-21-the-effects-of-empathy-training-on-racial-bias-and-other-research-from-dr-victoria-suarez-phd-bcba-d/ Rocco Episode https://www.behaviourspeak.com/e/episode-46-using-relational-frame-theory-to-tackle-stigma-toward-persons-with-disabilities-with-dr-rocco-catrone/ Articles Referenced: Elana Sickman, Jordan Belisle, Ashley Payne, Lauren Hutchison, Erin Travis, An exploratory analysis of gender stereotyping using the theoretical framework of relational density theory, Journal of Contextual Behavioral Science, Volume 28, 2023, Pages 256-265, ISSN 2212-1447, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jcbs.2023.04.007 Belisle, J., Payne, A., Sellers, B. et al.
