An approach to Skinner's radical behaviorism

Abstract

Psychology is a discipline that is constantly developing, so it is understandable that there are still not the same parameters for each of the existing theoretical frameworks. It is extremely necessary to understand the usefulness and importance of philosophy in any scientific field, since it provides a basis for understanding each of the statements, experiments and applications carried out in the name of psychology. For this reason, we seek to expose in a concrete and concise manner what concerns the skinnerian radical behaviorism, whose purpose is to move away from the dualistic theories and seeks to approach a more concrete knowledge through the prevailing scientific method. This behaviorist philosophy could provide certainty to psychology professionals that their practice is aligned to the parameters of what is delimited and understood as science.
