Lynda LaBounty's graduate specialization was in the experimental analysis of
behavior and she regularly teaches both experimental and applied courses in that area.
For the last decade, she has been applying the behavior analytic approach to research on
addictive processes in collaboration with colleagues and students at the University of
Minnesota and Macalester College. She has done research on the relationship between
anxiety and alcohol use and dependence. She was the recipient of an NSF equipment grant
for improving instruction in behavioral and physiological laboratories in psychology.
LaBounty has been teaching at Macalester since 1973.
