Functional contextualism is a modern philosophy of science [1] rooted in philosophical pragmatism and contextualism.It is most actively developed in behavioral science in general and the field of behavior analysis and contextual behavioral science in particular (see the entry for the Association for Contextual Behavioral Science).
