It is important that any observation we teach in our classes is backed by scientific research. The observations we teach are designed to speed up the decision-making process for the “person on the ground,” and if those assessments are doubted or second-guessed, the process is impaired. By backing behavioral analysis in research, we can ensure that people are confident in the accuracy of their judgements.
The reference list is the complete bibliography to “Left of Bang” and the topics discussed in The CP Journal’s training programs. It is a lot, so we also recommend you start with some of our recommended books below.
