If publishing your work in a peer review journal is one of your professional goals, this free tutorial (with 1 free CEU) from DeTerrence Allen and Dr. Linda LeBlanc may be just what you are looking for! ABSTRACT — Publishing an article in a journal requires a specific writing repertoire and mentorship from an experienced writer. Many behavior analysts learn to write and publish as part of their doctoral educational experience, particularly in research intensive programs. However, a large percentage of applied practitioners are not currently receiving this training as part of their educational experience in graduate programs with applied practitioner programs. This skill share is designed to review specific tools and strategies to enhance scientific writing to facilitate practitioners making meaningful contributions to the published literature.
