Resumo: This paper has the general purpose of presenting Skinner’s vision of interpretation, both as aim and method. Besides, it has as specific purposes (a) to define interpretation, according to Skinner; (b) to indicate when and how the author defends its accomplishment; (c) to relate interpretation with other aims and methods proposed by Skinner; (d) to indicate contributions and limits of interpretation, according to the author. In this regard, we examined 35 texts of Skinner related to the subject, published between 1931 and 1990. Both as aim and method, we show that interpretation offers theoretical, methodological, and technological contributions to Skinner’s science, although it presents limits related to its inferential and speculative nature, as well as to its plausible and sometimes temporary format.

Além disso, tem como propósitos específicos (a) definir a interpretação, conforme Skinner, (b) apontar quando e como o autor defende a sua realização, (c) relacionar a interpretação a outros objetivos e métodos propostos por Skinner e (d) indicar contribuições e limites da interpretação, segundo o autor. Para isso, examinamos 35 textos de Skinner ligados ao assunto, publicados entre 1931 e 1990. Seja como objetivo ou como método, mostramos que a interpretação oferece contribuições teóricas, metodológicas e tecnológicas à ciência de Skinner, ainda que ela apresente limites relacionados à sua natureza inferencial e especulativa, bem como ao seu caráter plausível e, às vezes, temporário.Instituto de Psicologia - Universidade de Brasília2021-02-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/revistaptp/article/view/2270010.1590/0102.3772e37217 Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 37 (2021)Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 37 (2021)Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 37 (2021)Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; v. 37 (2021)1806-34460102-3772reponame:Psicologia (Universidade de Brasília.
