Episode 125 - Resurgence

Are you ready to talk about resurgence? Well, I certainly wasn't, but we still recorded an episode all about it. And, y'know what, we had a great time doing so! Rob even demanded we add a bonus article on the topic, so moved by learning about this oft misunderstood component of behavior change. We hope that you are similarly moved…at the very least you'll remember the difference between resurgence and extinction and stop embarrassing yourself at BCBA cocktail parties.
