摘要

Health, sports, and fitness (HSF) are important areas of applied behavior analysis with a growing body of research supporting its development. Although research efforts are ongoing, there appear to be few clinical positions for behavior analysts in HSF (Behavior Analyst Certification Board [BACB], n.d). Therefore, the goal of this study was to investigate the extent to which behavior analysts have training and experience in HSF. We gathered survey information regarding basic demographic information, supervisory fieldwork and professional experience, experience and practice in domains of HSF, and interest in as well as barriers to practicing behavior analysis in HSF. Overall, 142 respondents completed the survey, and results indicate that most respondents have limited experience practicing behavior analysis in HSF, are interested in practicing, but are unsure where to begin. The results offer valuable insights into how our field is currently engaging with HSF and where there are opportunities for growth.
