The Japanese Association for Behavior Analysis (J-ABA) is dedicated to promoting the experimental, theoretical, and applied analysis of behavior, which B.F. Skinner originated. The purpose of J-ABA is to provide opportunities for research, education, and practices of behavior analysis through its activities such as journal publication and annual convention. The members of J-ABA come from a wide variety of professions, including researchers, school teachers, counselors, social workers, nurses, and business people, but most of us share the same interest: the integration of basic and applied research to find out how to solve socially important problems.
J-ABA was established as a Society for the Study of Behavior Analysis in 1979 and changed its name to the Japanese Association for Behavior Analysis in 1983, when its first annual convention was held at Keio University. Currently, they have more than 400 members, and the number is increasing.
