4CornersABA

By Nicole L Bank

The Four Corners ABA (4CABA) mission is to promote the science of behavior and evidence-based technologies derived from the basic science in the Four Corners region of the U.S. (Utah, Arizona, Colorado, and New Mexico), providing behavior analysts with an intellectual home. Chapter membership is open to anyone who is interested in the science and practice of behavior analysis. Most of our members have physical and/or academic roots in the Four Corners region. There are numerous benefits to being a 4CABA member, including being a part of a group of individuals who value the science and practice of behavior analysis and enjoy being part of a strong, productive and vibrant community of scholars and practitioners. If you are interested in being a part of 4CABA, please take a look at our website for more information (www.4caba.org). In our ongoing efforts to increase membership and let other behavior analysts know what we’ve been up to, 4CABA also hosts an expo booth at the ABAI annual conventions. Make sure to stop by and say hello if you’re attending the next Annual ABAI Convention—we’ll be there!

In 2024, our 17th Annual 4CABA Conference was held at the Santa Ana Hotel and Casino in Albuquerque, New Mexico (April 5–6), organized by President, Travis Blevins. Nine individuals representing applied and experimental behavior analysis fields were invited to speak at the conference, Justin Leaf (Autism Partnership Foundation), Steven Mehran (Child Insights), Bob Ross (Bob Ross Consulting), Ashley Prichard (Georgia Institute of Technology), Al Poling (Western Michigan University), Shahla Ala’i Rosales (University of North Texas), Patrick Friman (Boystown), Christina Alligood (University of Kansas), and William Heward (Ohio State University). We also hosted a post-conference workshop with Jill Dardig (Ohio Dominican University) and William Heward (Ohio State University). We would like to thank our speakers, the Conference Coordinator, Nicole Bank, and Travis Blevins once again for such a wonderful and intellectually stimulating event!

The 18th Annual Four Corners ABA Conference will be held in April of 2025 in Colorado. Visit our website for updates. We hope to see you in 2025!
