Organizational behavior management –
Per WP:CAPS and WP:TITLE: this is a generic, common term, not a propriety or commercial term, so the article title should be downcased. In addition, WP:MOS says that a compound item should not be upper-cased just because it is abbreviated with caps. Matches the formatting of related article titles.

Well, I don't think deleting this article will bring a lot of harm, although some could be merged into organizational behavior (the standard name of the wider discipline). Pundit| utter 15:37, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
"OBM might be seen as one of the distant branches of scientific management, originally inspired by Taylor.[12] The principle difference between scientific management and OBM might be on the conceptual underpinnings: OBM is based on B.F. Skinner's science of human behavior.[13]"
I think this paragraph amounts to original research. Nothing in Skinner's work suggests that it was inspired by Taylor's work, and it's expansion to the workforce seems to be more the logical conclusion of effective applied techniques (i.e. ABA). -- florkle ( talk) 21:49, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
Mrm, it doesn't matter if the sentence, "Although OBM is related to industrial and organizational psychology (I/O psychology), because it is a behavioral field, the historical precursors of I/O psychology are only chronological precursors and not causal precursors," was in the article a long time or a short time. It is a poor sentence. We all have written poor sentences at times. Such sentences should be removed or edited to be made better. Asserting that the sentence was in the article for a long time does not justify its remaining in the article. Iss246 ( talk) 03:01, 13 April 2014 (UTC)
