Contingency Horizon: on Private Events and the Analysis of Behavior [PDF]
The Behavior Analyst, 2014 Skinner's radical behaviorism incorporates private events as biologically based phenomena that may play a functional role with respect to other (overt) behavioral phenomena. Skinner proposed four types of contingencies, here collectively termed the contingency horizon, which enable certain functional relations between private events and verbal behavior.

Drug Discrimination and the Analysis of Private Events. [PDF]
Behav Anal (Wash D C), 2016 A defining feature of radical behaviorism is the explicit inclusion of private events as material phenomena within a science of behavior. Surprisingly, however, despite much theorizing, there is a notable paucity within behavior analysis of controlled experimentation and analysis of private events, especially in nonhuman animals.

Stimuli, reinforcers, and private events. [PDF]
Behav Anal, 2008 Radical behaviorism considers private events to be a part of ongoing observable behavior and to share the properties of public events. Although private events cannot be measured directly, their roles in overt action can be inferred from mathematical models that relate private responses to external stimuli and reinforcers according to the same ...

Behaviorism, private events, and the molar view of behavior. [PDF]
Behav Anal, 2011 Viewing the science of behavior (behavior analysis) to be a natural science, radical behaviorism rejects any form of dualism, including subjective-objective or inner-outer dualism. Yet radical behaviorists often claim that treating private events as covert behavior and internal stimuli is necessary and important to behavior analysis.

Introduction: private events in a natural science of behavior. [PDF]
Behav Anal, 2011 Ever since Skinner (1945) suggested how so-called “subjective” terms could be brought under the control of private stimuli, behavior analysts have debated the nature and role of private events in a natural science of behavior. In this issue, the debate continues with the target article by Baum and commentaries by five prominent behavioral theoreticians.
