Hey, everybody, welcome to ABA Inside Track, the podcast that's like reading in your car, but safer.

I'm your host, Robert Perry Cruz. And with me, as as always are my fabulous co-hosts. Hello, Rob, it's Diana. And it's

Jackie. How are y'all doing today, guys? Hot. It's hot. I was going to say that,

and I was like, I say that every single time. So then I didn't. So I'm doing great. You want to do

a professional podcast, Diana. The listeners will tell you they appreciate that you turn off the air conditioner so they don't get the wooz, woo, woo, woo, woo, sound on the microphones. I'm doing well. That's good. Well, it is summer. It is hot because, you know, a lot of folks are still sort of limited as to where they can travel. We're very fortunate to have people deciding to take a vacation to our podcast studio virtual tour.

And today is a special event because in our weekly discussion of behavior analysis and behavior

analytic topics, we have a very special guest joining us virtually.

And that is Dr. Jeffrey Tiger. Jeff, how are you doing?

Wonderful. Good morning. Thank you guys so much for having me.

Oh, we're very happy.

You can spend some summertime days with us here in the Zoom studio we've got going on.

So this week we are going to be discussing functional communication training

and more specifically, delay tolerance components of the overall functional communication training package.

And this is a subject, Jeff, that you have written and done a lot of research on.

So we're very excited to have all of your expertise in discussing our articles for today.

So our two articles we'll be discussing are DRA contingencies promote improved tolerance

to delayed reinforcement during FCT compared to DRO and fixed time schedules by Drifke, Tiger, and Lily.

And that is from the Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis.

And as of this recording, I don't know, it was an early access.

It's out.

It is out now.

Okay.
