The scientific activity occurs under influences of scientific, academic and social politics. In Brazil, particularly, the work to produce scientific knowledge depends intensely on these conditions. The possibilities to produce knowledge in experimental analysis of the behavior and its results, either scientific or technological and social, are still limited by unfamiliarity or prejudice. The organization of the behavior analysts, their participation in the system of the country's science development, technology and higher education is an important condition for the development of this area in psychology. An only circumstantial organization, improvised or located in geographic areas or non representative groups will run the risk of becoming inefficient and have little force or durability. Organization and representation depend on conditions for representation. All this require a basic structure of relationship and work towards supporting the organization, the participation and the representation. All these conditions, in turn, strongly depend on a gradual qualification and perfectioning of the behavior analysts so that the development of the AEC in the country is evaluated not only by amount of publications, events or participation in them. The volume of production and activity needs to also express an upgrade in the quality of the production, the formation of new analysts, the permanent perfectioning, a deep update of the currently operating ones, in the improvement of the conditions of knowledge production on the behavior and the spreading and diffusion of this knowledge and in the formation of new generations of psychologists. In the first decade of the XXI Century, publications already exist, programs of post-graduation and courses directed toward this knowledge and the performance of the behavior analysts. It seems to be a good moment to evaluate what, historically, has been made with the associations and attempts to their organization in national, regional or local levels and to start a work to allow for more organization, participation and representation of the AEC in the system of development of science, technology and higher education in the country, regardless of how precarious it might still be or how incipient the initial efforts to construct these conditions.Downloads

1. A pre-print (or original submission) is the author’s version of the article before peer-review has taken place. Prior to acceptance for publication, author(s) retain the right to make a Pre-Print of their article available: on their own personal, self-maintained website; or on a legally compliant pre-print server (e.g., PsyArXiv, arXiv). Once the article has been published, the author(s) should update their acknowledgement and provide a link to the definitive version on RBTCC’s website, adding a text such as: “This is a pre-print of an article published in the Brazilian Journal of Behavioral and Cognitive Therapy. The final authenticated version is available online at: https://doi.org/[insert DOI]”. RBTCC encourages posting of preprints of manuscripts on preprint servers, authors’ or institutional websites, and open communications between researchers whether on community preprint servers or preprint commenting platforms. Posting of preprints is not considered prior publication and will not jeopardize consideration from RBTCC. Authors should disclose details of preprint posting - including DOI and licensing terms - upon submission of the manuscript or at any other point during consideration at RBTCC publication process.
2. An accepted manuscript is the version accepted for publication in RBTCC following peer review but prior to copyediting and typesetting that can be made available under the following conditions:
(i) on their own personal, self-maintained website immediately on acceptance,
(ii) for public release, 12 months after first publication (i.e., "Embargo Period"), on any of the following: their employer’s internal website; their institutional and/or funder repositories. Accepted manuscripts may also be deposited in such repositories immediately on acceptance, provided that they are not made publicly available until after the Embargo Period.
An acknowledgement in the following form should be included with a link to the published version on the publisher’s website: “This is a post-peer-review, pre-copyedit version of an article published in the Brazilian Journal of Behavioral and Cognitive Therapy. The final authenticated version is available online at: http://dx.doi.org/[insert DOI]”.
3. The final published (PDF) version is the copy-edited and typeset RBTCC’s PDF, the same version published on the journal’s website. It can be archived in institutional or funder repositories and can be made publicly accessible immediately.
