Synopsis

The groundbreaking second edition of Nonlinear Contingency Analysis gives practitioners a powerful framework for understanding and shaping behavior without coercion.

Nonlinear contingency analysis (NCA) builds on Israel Goldiamond’s classic work, offering a systematic method for analyzing how multiple contingencies interact. Rather than eliminating behavior, NCA equips one to construct new repertoires and expand options for clients, students, and communities.

Inside, you’ll find:

• Current applications with autistic children and their families.
• An expanded treatment of emotion in clinical practice.
• An introduction to constructional exposure therapy (CET).
• A new chapter on genuine consent, assent, and degrees of freedom for verbal and nonverbal individuals and even animals.

With updated models, real-world case studies, and expanded applications, this edition is more than theory: it’s a practical guide to ethical, socially meaningful, and freedom-enhancing practice.
