In this episode we invited Jared Van and Rick Kubina to explore the challenge with measurement of private events within a behavior analytic framework. Topics we touch on include the history of private events within Skinner’s radical behaviorism, a literature review of private events and precision teaching methods (from Van & Kubina, 2026) and implications for future research.
