Abstract
Reitman and Drabman (1997) encourage healthy competition among different theoretical frameworks that share common scientific values in behavior therapy. With a similar ecumenical spirit, this commentary compares radical behaviorism's emphasis on external causation with integrative explanatory models used clinically to effect change in clinical symptoms by changing other elements of the repertoire. Information processing constructs might be thought of as more fundamentally causal than covert events, but cognitive theory's emphasis on meaning appears remarkably similar to psychotherapies consistent with radical behaviorism's contextual rationale.
