The present article traces the development of Timberlake's behavior systems framework while noting connections between it and Kantor's interbehavioral psychology. Congruent with Timberlake's behavior systems approach, interbehaviorists assert that (a) behavior is best understood as part of a complex causal system instead of a simple linear model, (b) the study of learning and behavior analysis should consist of the study of multiple responses and the systematic observation of response forms, (c) learning involves the reorganization of a behavior system, (d) behavioral analyses should be more ecological in orientation, and (e) psychology would benefit from a set of methodologies and apparatuses broader than those normally used to study operant and Pavlovian conditioning. These connections may derive from two broad themes shared by the behavior systems framework and interbehavioral psychology: an appreciation for a systems view of behavior and the importance of ethological considerations.
本文追溯了廷伯莱克行为系统框架的发展历程，同时指出了它与坎托的相互行为心理学之间的联系。与廷伯莱克的行为系统方法相一致，相互行为主义者断言：（a）行为最好被理解为一个复杂因果系统的一部分，而非简单的线性模型；（b）学习与行为分析的研究应包括对多种反应的研究以及对反应形式的系统观察；（c）学习涉及行为系统的重组；（d）行为分析在取向上应更具生态学意义；（e）心理学将受益于一套比通常用于研究操作性条件反射和巴甫洛夫条件反射的方法和仪器更为广泛的方法和仪器。这些联系可能源于行为系统框架和相互行为心理学共有的两个广泛主题：对行为系统观点的欣赏以及生态学考量的重要性。
