Abstract: In this discussion, Benji Schoendorff and Angela Cathey discuss the ways in which our awareness and verbal behavior create or transform our contexts. Benji is renowned for his ability to track contingencies in flight and to communicate his deep behavior analytic knowledge into easy-to-understand metaphors and language. In this discussion, Benji and Angela discuss multiple levels of contingencies that feed into whether a context functions as “aversive” or “appetitive” and how Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Relational Frame Theory can relate to transforming contexts.
