Abstract

In the present essay, commemorating the 60th anniversary of the publication of B. F. Skinner's Verbal Behavior, I stand by and defend the judgment I expressed in my article "The Long Goodbye: Why B. F. Skinner's Verbal Behavior Is Alive and Well on the 50th Anniversary of Its Publication" (2008c)-that Skinner's "interpretation of the behavior of the speaker, given the contingencies of reinforcement maintained by the community" (Skinner, 1987, p. 11), is not only adequate but is also consistent with the principles of operant learning. To that I add some of my reflections on the book after having taught it for years and having written numerous articles extending Skinner's analysis to related topics.

60岁时的言语行为反思。

在这篇纪念斯金纳《言语行为》出版60周年的文章中，我支持并捍卫我在《漫长的再见：为什么是斯金纳》一文中表达的判断。斯金纳的言语行为在其出版50周年之际依然活跃”（2008c）——斯金纳对说话者行为的解释，考虑到社区维持的强化的偶然性”（Skinner，1987，第11页），不仅足够，而且符合操作性学习的原则。除此之外，我在教了这本书多年并写了许多文章将Skinner的分析扩展到相关主题后，补充了我对这本书的一些思考。

The Mission of the journal is to support the dissemination of innovative empirical research, theoretical conceptualizations, and real-world applications of the behavioral science of language. The journal embraces diverse perspectives of human language, its conceptual underpinnings, and the utility such diversity affords. TAVB values contributions that represent the scope of field and breadth of populations behavior analysts serve, and Is the premier publication outlet that fosters increased dialogue between scientists and scientist-practitioners. Articles addressing the following topics are encouraged: language acquisition, verbal operants, relational frames, naming, rule-governed behavior, epistemology, language assessment and training, bilingualism, verbal behavior of nonhumans, research methodology, or any other topic that addresses the analysis of language from a behavior analytic perspective.
