Geographic distribution patterns of board certified behavior analysts may be useful in analyzing the growth of the field. First, we present an international snapshot of Behavior Analyst Certification Board (BACB) certificants, then analyze relative growth rates between countries from 1999 to 2019. This is followed by an in depth review of certificant distribution patterns in the United States and Canada, as well as the ratios of experienced behavior analysts to new certificants. These data highlight regions with a potential deficit of qualified supervisors. There are factors that influence different dispersal patterns, and without drilling deeper into the data we may be unable to effectively identify or influence them in order meet the specific needs of a geographic region.

获得行为分析师认证委员会（BACB）认证的行为分析师的地理分布模式可能有助于分析该领域的发展情况。首先，我们展示了BACB认证人员的国际概况，然后分析了1999年至2019年各国之间的相对增长率。接下来，我们深入审查了美国和加拿大的认证人员分布模式，以及经验丰富的行为分析师与新认证人员的比例。这些数据突出了合格督导可能短缺的地区。存在影响不同分布模式的因素，如果不深入研究数据，我们可能无法有效识别或影响这些因素，以满足特定地理区域的具体需求。
