Moreso, think about Skinner! Man, no research with his daughter? She was
one of his main research subjects. :)

I'd be interest to know exactly what you're referring to with this. My fear is that you're (re-)perpetrating the old myth that Deborah Skinner (on of his two daughters) was "raised" in a Skinner box. As we have been over many times here, she was not. She was photographed a few times in Skinner's "Air Crib," which had no "conditioning" components at all. It was just a temperature controlled, partially enclosed bed for baby. It was not so much part of his research as a (failed) commercial venture.
