Biographical History
Willard F. Day received his Bachelor, Master, and Doctorate degrees from the University of Virginia, and did postdoctoral research at Johns Hopkins University where he used Skinnerian baseline methodology. In 1956, he joined the psychology department at the University of Nevada, Reno. In 1972 he founded the interdisciplinary philosophy-psychology journal, Behaviorism, and served as editor until 1985. Day's specialization was the radical behaviorist analysis of verbal behavior, and the conceptual, philosophical, and historical foundations of contemporary behaviorism. His interpretation of B.F. Skinner behaviorism led to a particular method on anlayzing verbal behavior known in scientific circles as the Reno methodology. Day was also an active lay leader in the Episcopal Church, and an accomplished pianist who performed in the Reno community.
