Although a large part of this Congress was spent discussing ethical issues the call for certification of behaviour therapists does not, in this case, refer to any demand to section and incarcerate psychologists in the very institutions which presently employ them. It does of course refer to the debate about registration of behaviour modifiers, analysts, .therapists, which has quite recently enjoyed some publicity in these very pages (B.A.B.P. Bulletin, 1975, 2).

Cullen and Gathercole's review (B.A.B.P. Bull., 1976, Vol.4) of Mahoney's book, Cognition & Behaviour Modification, Ballinger, 1974, prompts me to take up my pen in defense of Mahoney and attack what I believe to be the unfortunate position that some radical behaviourists find themselves in. My reaction to Mahoney's book was very different from that of Cullen and Gathercole's. Fair enough, perhaps, as we each have our own standpoint on how cognitive behaviour modification is or should be. Nevertheless I feel some necessity to present my own views as I do not believe that Cullen and Gathercole's review did justice to the book as a whole. I found Mahoney's book to be an exciting and welcome departure from the current trend of books on behaviour therapy. It is not a review of existing behavioural techniques; nor an idiosyncratic view about what clinical practice should be. Mahoney has focussed carefully on one important and developing area in behaviour modification and provided a lucid, well-informed, thoughtful and at times amusing analysis of the clinical and experimental work pertinent to that area. Regardless of whether one accepts his conclusions or supports his theoretical position, I think the quality of the book should be recognised. Cullen and Gathercole spend most of their review discussing and rejecting Mahoney's theoretical views about mediational models. This is fair enough as their concern is primarily to demonstrate that such models are of little or no use in experimental or clinical psychology.
Cullen and Gathercole的评论(B.A.B.P. Bull)。马奥尼的书《认知与行为修正》，巴林杰出版社，1974年出版，第4卷，促使我拿起笔为马奥尼辩护，并攻击我认为某些激进行为主义者所处的不幸境地。我对马奥尼的书的反应与卡伦和盖泽科尔的截然不同。也许这很公平，因为我们每个人都有自己的观点，关于认知行为如何改变或应该如何改变。然而，我觉得有必要提出我自己的观点，因为我不相信Cullen和Gathercole的评论对这本书的整体评价是公正的。我发现马奥尼的书是一种令人兴奋和受欢迎的背离当前行为治疗书籍趋势的书。它不是对现有行为技术的回顾;也不是关于临床实践应该是什么的特殊观点。马奥尼仔细地关注了行为矫正中一个重要的、正在发展的领域，并对与该领域相关的临床和实验工作进行了清晰、见多识广、深思熟虑、时而有趣的分析。无论一个人是否接受他的结论或支持他的理论立场，我认为这本书的质量应该得到认可。Cullen和Gathercole的大部分评论都在讨论和驳斥马奥尼关于中介模型的理论观点。这是公平的，因为他们主要关注的是证明这些模型在实验或临床心理学中很少或根本没有用处。

In Britain, social workers are trained on a variety of courses in colleges of further education, polytechnics and universities. Some of these courses are intended primarily for non-graduates and last two-years, others are four year undergraduate courses combining a first degree with professional training, and the remainder are at postgraduate level. Students in the last group may have graduated in any discipline from the humanities or the physical, biological or social sciences, many have degrees which included the study of psychology for one, two or three years, and some of these are honours graduates in this subject. The postgraduate social work courses last one or two years depending on the subjects covered in the students' first degrees.

What is behavioural psychotherapy? In the following note I do not intend to give a comprehensive answer to this question but rather to put forward a point of view and to illustrate it using one particular example. It appears that the term ‘behavioural psychotherapy’ has acquired a rather restricted meaning in the relatively short time it has been around. In many senses the term Behavioural has become synonymous with scientific i.e. the sort of knowledge gained by the application of experimental techniques to a problem. This I believe is all well and good. The restrictive aspect comes when we consider what sort of problems have been tackled in the ‘behavioural way’. On the whole it seems that we have concentrated on treatment aspects of psychotherapy and appear to have made substantial inroads into problems of therapy. We have now available a plethora of techniques e.g. systematic desensitisation, flooding, modeling, token economies, which had been demon-stated to be efficient in the past. In addition to this there has been a concerted effort to develop a method which enables a degree of experimental rigour to be introduced into the treatment of the individual case (see Mathews, 1975; Leitenberg, 1973).

Judging from the interest that has been shown in our research project - the Teacher-Child Interaction Project - and from the number of requests we have had to talk to various groups all over the country, there is a growing awareness of the value of behaviour modification in education. However, the various groups interested in these developments seem isolated from each other, and have no obvious forum to discuss areas of mutual interest. It would seem to us that the B.A.B.P. could provide such a forum.

Pavlov's words presaged a twentieth century development for study of human behavioural disorders: Animal learning models. In essence, animal modeling involves induction of disorders analogous to naturally occurring human psychopathologies in animal subjects. The goal, of course, is illumination of cause, cure, and prevention of human disorders. Historically, although Pavlov's (1941, 1966) discovery of “experimental neurosis” in dogs generated initial enthusiasm for animal modeling, the approach later fell into disrepute probably because the early animal experimentation was rather poor (McKinney, 1974). The experimental analyses of the apparently maladaptive animal behaviours were reasonably thorough, but the claim that they represented and/or analyzed some form of naturally occurring disorder was usually unconvincing. Currently, however, a resurgence of interest in the method of animal modeling coupled with increased concern by investigators to set down ground rules for evaluation of animal models is apparent in the recent compilation of several books on the subject (two still in press): Experimental psychopathology: Recent research and theory, Psychopathology: Experimental models, and Relevance of the Psychopathological animal model to the human.
