4 ANNOUNCEMENT ELECTION OF JEAB EDITOR The Board of Directors of the Society for the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, Inc., governing body of the Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior and Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, met in annual executive session on August 24, 1986, in Washington, DC. At that meeting Edmund Fantino of the University of California-San Diego was elected Editor of the Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, to serve four years beginning September 1, Also elected in August were three Directors: Jon S. Bailey (Florida State University), A. Charles Catania (University of Maryland Baltimore County), and R. Wayne Fuqua (Western Michigan University). Other current members of the Board of Directors are: N. H. Azrin William M. Baum Marc N. Branch Ronald S. Drabman Edmund Fantino (Chair) E. Scott Geller Lewis R. Gollub Peter Harzem Steven C. Hayes Philip N. Hineline Steven R. Hursh Brian A. Iwata Robert L. Koegel Victor G. Laties Kennon A. Lattal Charlotte Mandell Nancy A. Neef Dennis Reid Laura Schreibman Evalyn F. Segal Richard L.

5 ANNOUNCEMENT APA DIVISION DON HAKE AWARD NOMINATIONS SOLICITED Nominations for the recipient of the Second Annual Don Hake Award are hereby invited from all student members, members, and fellows of Division 25. Guidelines for the award are as follows: 1. The award will be based on published work rather than on presentations at conferences or on work generally known in the behavior analysis community but unpublished (doctoral dissertation work is eligible if it has been published). 2. Any type of published work is eligible for nomination (e.g., synthesis papers, theoretical papers, experimental work, conceptual papers, critical reviews, books). The work may be either a single seminal contribution or a systematic series of works spanning several contributions. 3. The work should have been published within the last five years. 4. The basic-applied bridge/relation in the work should be made explicit in the work itself. 5. The work will be evaluated on the basis of its potential contribution to the interrelation of basic and applied areas. The work must hold the promise of having a substantial effect on the conceptualization of behavior and its controlling variables in relation to our practical technology for influencing the behavior and/or environments of humankind or other species or both. 6. The award will recognize work that bridges not only from basic research and conceptual development to applications but also that which bridges from applications to basic research and conceptual development. 7. Recipients need be neither a member of APA nor a psychologist. 8. Nominations for joint awards to two or more individuals for co-authored works are welcome. Nominators are asked to submit a one- to two-page letter that describes the work of the person being nominated as it relates to the general purpose of the award and specifically in terms of Guidelines 4, 5, and 6. Nominators also are asked to solicit a second for their nominee, and the person serving as second also should submit a letter describing the rationale for his/ her second. On acceptance of the nomination by the nominee, the material provided by the nominators and by the nominees will be reviewed by an awards subcommittee appointed by the Executive Committee of Division 25. Winners will be announced in the Recorder prior to the 1987 APA convention. Deadline for nominations is February 13, Nominations for the Don Hake Award and inquiries should be directed to: Dr. John R. Lutzker, Chair Awards Committee Dean of Student and Administrative Affairs California School of Professional Psychology, Los Angeles 2235 Beverly Blvd. Los Angeles, CA The recipient of the 1986 Don Hake Award was Murray Sidman. 280

6 ANNOUNCEMENT TAX-DEDUCTIBLE SUBSCRIPTIONS At the time this announcement is being written, not all of the details of the new tax bill are known. However, it is fairly certain that professional expenses such as subscriptions to scientific publications will not be considered a deductible expense in Although JEAB has not encouraged multiple-year subscription in the past, as a service to our more tax-conscious subscribers we are accepting multiyear subscriptions at the current individual rate of $18.00 (+$4.00 postage outside the U.S.). This offer applies only to individuals buying the subscription for their personal use and is not applicable to student-rate subscription, to institutionalrate subscriptions, nor to JEAB/JABA combination subscriptions. Individuals may enter a subscription for as many years as they wish at the current individual rate; checks or bank card instructions, dated not later than 31 December 1986, must accompany orders. Also, subscribers who have been contemplating the purchase of back volumes may wish to buy them before the end of the year. Checks should be made payable to JEAB and orders should be sent to Kay Dinsmoor, JEAB Department of Psychology Indiana University Bloomington, IN USA 292
