The Importance of Research-A Student Perspective

Rachel Arena et al. Behav Anal Pract. .

Abstract

As students, we will focus on the importance of an objective ranking system, research, and mentorship to an applicant. We will address points raised in the (Behavior Analysis In Practice 8(1):7-15, 2015) article as well as debate the usefulness of proposed standards of objective ranking.
