Education and Treatment of Children - TECBD conference
2023 TECBD Conference Presenters:
As is tradition, Education and Treatment of Children will devote a special issue to the TECBD conference. Eligible papers will be based on presentations from the 2023 TECBD Conference that focus on applied behavioral research, and behavioral assessments and interventions. Please plan to submit manuscripts based on the topic of your presentation at the 2023 TECBD Conference no later than February 1, 2024. Manuscripts will undergo expedited review and will appear in the Issues 3 or 4 of 2024 depending on the length of the peer review process.
Manuscript Guidelines
Education and Treatment of Children (ETC) disseminates information about behavioral assessments or interventions for children and youth who are at-risk for or experiencing emotional or behavioral problems. One of the conditions of the special issue is that the manuscript aligns with the ETC journal’s goals, which is to disseminate research related to “behavior-analytic assessment and intervention for children and youth who are at-risk for or experiencing emotional or behavioral problems, with an emphasis on work relevant to schools or other educational or treatment contexts.” Publications should focus on improving the effectiveness of services provided by educators, parents, child-care providers, or mental health professionals for children with emotional or behavioral problems. Therefore, authors must compose their manuscripts in a clear, concise style that both scientists and practitioners will readily understand.
Submissions appropriate for publication in ETC include experimental research (Original Articles), data-based case studies (Brief Reports), literature reviews (Reviews), issue-oriented papers (Commentaries), and book reviews. All submissions should emphasize the impact of the paper on the practical concerns of professionals serving children and youth who are at-risk for or experiencing emotional or behavioral problems. Experimental studies should additionally demonstrate the usefulness of the described procedure, adequacy of the data in showing a functional relation between the procedures and observed behavior changes, and evidence that measurements taken were reliable. Please follow the general submission guidelines (this opens in a new tab) for ETC.
The journal is an official publication of the Association for Behavior Analysis International.
Please designate your paper as a submission for the special issue when you submit using the ETC submission portal (this opens in a new tab) through Springer no later than February 1, 2024.
