This week, the EveryDay ABA team puts on their behavioral science goggles to break down season 9 of Netflix’s hit Love Is Blind. What can this social experiment teach us about operationally defining goals, verbal behavior, motivating operations, and long-term reinforcement in relationships? From shallow questions in the pods to meaningful conversations that predict real compatibility, the hosts analyze the show’s dating dynamics through the lens of applied behavior analysis (ABA). Whether you’re a BCBA, RBT, student, or just a fan of Love Is Blind, you’ll walk away seeing love, language, and decision-making in a whole new behavioral way.

After listening to the episode, participants will be able to:
- Describe how operationally defining goals clarifies expectations in relationships and parallels to behavior-analytic treatment planning.
- Evaluate how questions reflect socially significant behaviors and long-term reinforcers.
- Identify examples of verbal behavior from the show and analyze their function in building or undermining compatibility.
- Explain how environmental changes (e.g., the “pods”) function as motivating operations that alter dating behaviors and decision-making.
