Get ready for round two as Presley dives even deeper into the dark and twisted world of Jeffrey Dahmer—but this time, through the behavior analytic lens you didn’t know you needed. In Part 2, we dissect Dahmer’s behavior chain step by step, breaking down the environmental variables, reinforcement histories, and learned behaviors that shaped one of the most infamous serial killers in history. It’s true crime meets ABA, and it’s as fascinating as it is disturbing. Tune in as we explore how behavior doesn’t happen in a vacuum—and why understanding the “why” behind even the darkest actions matters.
