Todd Robert Risley (September 8, 1937 – November 2, 2007) was an American psychologist. He is credited with helping to create the field of applied behavior analysis, and has been described as a "pioneer" in this field.[1][2][3] He is known for the study he conducted with Betty Hart, who was his graduate student at University of Kansas at the time, on the word gap between rich and poor children.[1] He was also a co-founder and editor-in-chief of the Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis.[4]
