Relational frame theory
Also called RFT
Definition
A behavior-analytic account that treats derived relational responding as learned, generalized operant behavior, including relations such as opposite, more than, and before/after.
Example from a session
After learning a dime is worth more than a nickel, a child derives that a nickel is worth less than a dime.
