Burgio, Louis D.; Burgio, Kathryn L.
Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, v19 n4 p321-28 Win 1986
The article discusses areas of behavioral gerontology that would profit from additional research, such as self-management, community caregiver training, and geriatric behavioral pharmacology. Considerations for adapting behavioral procedures for the elderly are discussed, and suggestions for expanding the role of behavior analysis in geriatric care are offered. (Author/JW)
