- Biography
Daniel Conine is a Board Certified Behavior Analyst – Doctoral and an Assistant Professor in the Department of Learning Sciences at Georgia State University. He also serves as Program Director for Applied Behavior Analysis. Conine received his doctorate and master’s degrees in psychology from the University of Florida. He has worked in a variety of clinical and research contexts throughout his career providing behavior-analytic services to children and their families, including services related to early intervention and language development, the treatment of challenging behavior and caregiver training and supports.
Conine conducts research primarily on behavior-analytic interventions for building language and learning new skills among children with autism and developmental delays. Specifically, his work aims to identify optimal learning arrangements and enhance the efficacy, efficiency, and social validity of intervention. Three general areas of focus guide this research agenda: (a) emergent learning and pivotal behaviors, (b) preference and reinforcer assessment, and (c) enhancing the ethics and social validity of behavioral intervention.
Conine has published peer-reviewed research in a wide range of behavior-analytic journals, currently sits on the editorial board for the Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, and is an Associate Editor for Behavior Analysis in Practice.
