Women in Behavior Analysis: Past, Present and Future Trends matters because it changes what a BCBA notices when decisions have to hold up in supervision meetings, staff training, clinic systems, and performance review. In Past, Present and Future Trends, for this course, the practical stakes show up in better performance, lower drift, and more sustainable team development, not in abstract discussion alone.

Thus, it is possible that a glass ceiling continues to limit women's representation in several notable positions (McSweeney et al., 2000) despite decades of advancements in this area (e.g., women as firstauthor publishers). Previous research has evaluated women's representation in positions such as first or- single-author roles, professional recognition ceremonies, and invited-speaker engagements. Overall, research outcomes have shown positive trends in women's representation in some, but not all positions. Our paper will present past, present, and future trends of women's representation in leadership positions in behavior analysis as indicated by research outcomes and feature discussion from Dr. Melissa Nosik.
