DESCRIPTION: The Behavioral Science Core has two objectives: to enhance the integrity of the independent variables of research involving human subjects (especially children and youth) where cooperation (compliance, adherence) represents a serious confound or barrier; and to expand the range and type of dependent variables by making available state-of-the- science methods so that investigators can objectively quantify behavioral phenomena specific to mental retardation and related disorders and identify, track and compare cognitive, behavioral, and developmental characteristics of genetic phenotypes, syndromes, diagnoses, intervention approaches, and animal models. The first objective is achieved by antecedent stimulus control procedures and contingency shaping procedures; the second by selection and use of standardized assessment procedures, direct observation techniques, and computer performance tasks designed to assess psychological variables.

描述：行为科学核心有两个目标： 涉及人类的研究自变量的完整性 合作对象（尤其是儿童和青少年）（遵守、 依从性）代表严重的混乱或障碍；并扩大 通过提供可用的状态来确定因变量的范围和类型 科学方法，使调查人员能够客观地量化行为 精神发育迟滞和相关疾病特有的现象和 识别、跟踪和比较认知、行为和发育 遗传表型特征、综合征、诊断、干预 方法和动物模型。第一个目标的实现是 事前刺激控制程序和应急塑造程序； 第二是选择和使用标准化评估程序， 直接观察技术和计算机执行任务旨在 评估心理变量。
