Resumo: Influenced by pragmatism and pepperian contextualism, some behavior analysts have denied any ontologicalassumption concerning substance to radical behaviorism. As a result, a radical version of relationism is defended in which theonly property relevant to the existence of behavior is the very relation that defines it. The aim of this paper is to evaluate thepertinence of that position. Three questions will guide our analysis: (1) Why is substance not important to radical behaviorism?;(2) Why is substance important to radical behaviorism?, and (3) What is, in fact, the ontological attitude more consistent withradical behaviorism? It is argued that extreme relationism does not accurately reflect radical behavioristic ontology and it issuggested that substantial relationism is a more coherent position.

Como resultado, há a defesa de um relacionismo extremado no qual a importância da substância é ínfima ou inexistente. O objetivo deste artigo é avaliar a pertinência dessa posição. Para tanto, nossa análise será guiada por três questões: (1) Por que a substância não é importante para o behaviorismo radical?; (2) Por que a substância é importante para o behaviorismo radical?; e (3) Qual seria, de fato, o posicionamento ontológico mais condizente com o behaviorismo radical? Argumenta-se que o relacionismo extremado não reflete com acurácia a ontologia behaviorista radical e sugere-se que o relacionismo substancial seja a posição mais coerente.Instituto de Psicologia - Universidade de Brasília2012-04-03info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/revistaptp/article/view/17559Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 28 No. 1 (2012): Revista Psicologia Teoria e pesquisa; 109-118Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 28 Núm. 1 (2012): Revista Psicologia Teoria e pesquisa; 109-118Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 28 No. 1 (2012): Revista Psicologia Teoria e pesquisa; 109-118Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; v. 28 n. 1 (2012): Revista Psicologia Teoria e pesquisa; 109-1181806-34460102-3772reponame:Psicologia (Universidade de Brasília.
