The Doc Analyzes AnythingTDAA Episode 13 | Traffic SafetyIn this episode, Dr. Steve, Kyle, and Chad hit the brakes on everyday chatter to dive into the science of traffic safety.
We unpack the research from Ron Van Houten at Western Michigan University, look at what the data really says about speeding and distracted driving campaigns, and even watch Kyle struggle (with love) to remember what his master’s thesis was about (spoiler: contingency management).
It’s equal parts research, real talk, and a few laughs along the way. Whether you’re a data nerd, a safe-driving advocate, or just here for the banter, this e...
2025-09-181h 30The Doc Analyzes AnythingTDAA Episode 12 | Novel BehaviorDr. Sparks joins Kyle and Chad to explore one of the most fascinating topics in human behavior: invention, ingenuity, and genius. Are these forms of creativity the result of innate talent, or can they be explained through environmental contingencies, reinforcement histories, problem-solving under multiple control, and complex combinations of both physiological and operant conditions?
In this episode, we unpack how behavior analysis sheds light on the science of creativity—how shaping, variability, and exposure to novel situations can lead to breakthroughs that change the world. We dive into:
How reinforcement and stimulus control contribute to “genius” behavi...

2025-08-061h 23The Doc Analyzes AnythingTDAA Episode 7 | Nature vs NurtureDr. Steve, Dr. Brad and Kyle (not a doc) talk the age-old debate: do I suck at sports because of my genes or because my dad didn't encourage me to give 110%? We'll dig into what behavior analysts, geneticists, and psychologists each bring to the table when we talk about why we are the way we are. Citing several twin studies, genetics, epigenetics and behaviorism, we'll unpack how nature and nurture interact—and why the debate might be a bit outdated.
