    Introduction to Intricate Artificial Psychology with Python unlocks the mysteries of Intricate Artificial Psychology (iAp). This comprehensive guide takes readers through advanced cognitive frameworks and the complex landscape of artificial psychology using Python. Starting with an introduction to iAp, the book explores degrees of prediction and applies Fuzzy Cognitive Maps (IAP). Special focus is given to detecting implicit bias through a combination of Fuzzy Cognitive Maps and SHAP values, offering a unique perspective on artificial intelligence and psychological phenomena. The book covers forecasting in iAp, complex network analysis, and psychological graph analysis (Pga).It delves into the intersection of deep learning and neuroimaging, as well as machine learning techniques in neuroimaging. It includes practical case studies, allowing readers to apply cutting-edge techniques to real-world psychological scenarios.

  • Applied Behavior Analysis for Clinical, Educational, and Training Applications

    The number of practitioners working in applied behavior analysis (ABA) has rapidly increased over the last several decades. Much of this is likely attributable to the success of applying ABA to support the needs of individuals with autism spectrum disorder/autistic individuals. However, as many researchers and practitioners repeatedly demonstrate, the power and potential of ABA can be extended to nearly any area of social significance. Applied Behavior Analysis for Clinical, Educational, and Training Applications provides 12 chapters written by current experts who apply ABA to various clinical, educational, and training contexts and spanning a variety of populations. This volume covers the application of ABA to autism and other developmental disabilities, pediatric feeding, severe problem behavior, behavioral pediatrics and pediatric psychology, clinical behavior analysis, education, child maltreatment, juvenile correction services, brain injury rehabilitation, behavioral gerontology, substance use, and applied animal behavior. In each chapter, the authors describe how basic behavioral principles and processes are relevant to the discussed topic, what applied work in that area involves, and—most importantly— the skill set and training needed to work in that area successfully. This volume is particularly useful for behavior analysts who seek to apply their behavior analytic skillset within various clinical or educational contexts.
