- 1ABA is one of ___ Branches of Science of behavior analysis3; behaviorism, experimental analysis of behavior (EAB), and applied behavior analysis (ABA)
- 2What is ABA?A systematic approach to understanding behavior of social importance.
It is the application of ABA principles to improve socially important behaviors.
A Way of Life.
Good teaching. - 3Edward L. ThorndikeLaw of effect - Consequences change behavior.
Learning curves.
Law of recency
trial and error
learning
all mammals learn in similar manner - 4Ivan Pavlovclassical conditioning (Pavlov's Dogs)
- 5John B. WatsonKnown as Father of Behaviorism
Did little Albert experiment (conditioned to fear rat).
Conditioned emotional responding.
Focused Psychology on behavior instead of consciousness.
Analysis of language.
Environment alone.
Stimulus ---> responce - 6B.F. SkinnerContingency of Reenforcement
responce ---> stimulus
discriminative stimulus.
Selection by consequences.
Operant conditioning
Behavior is learned through interaction with environment.
events that occur immediately following B affect the likelihood of B happening again in the future.
Satiation and deprivation

Analytic Behavior - 8Generality (AKA generalization)A behavioral change may be said to have generality if it proves durable over time, if it appears in a wide variety of possible environments, and/or if it spreads to a wide variety of related behaviors (Baer, Wolf, Risley, 1968).
- 9Effectiveinterventions are effective when they improve a behavior in a practical matter. If the application of behavioral techniques does not produce large enough effects for practical value, then the application has failed (Baer, Wolf, Risley, 1968). An intervention is effective when it changes the behavior it seeks to change.
- 10TechnologicalProcedures are described clearly and concisely so that others may implement the procedures accurately. Think of this dimension like a recipe – all steps are written in detail to get the desired result.
- 11AppliedA behavior change is applied when it enhances and improves the everyday life of a learner, and those who are closest to a learner (e.g., parents, siblings, peers), by improving a socially significant behavior.
- 12Conceptually SystematicInterventions are consistent with the principles demonstrated in the literature and the research. It is important that practitioners continue to use research-based techniques, and avoid using any shortcuts in our teaching methods.
- 13AnalyticUsing data to make informed decisions. The practitioner is able to show that whenever he/she applies a certain variable, the behavior is produced, and whenever he/she removes this variable, the behavior is lost (Baer, Wolf, Risley, 1968).
- 14BehaviorThe behavior chosen must also be observable and measurable. By defining a behavior that makes it easily observable and measurable, we are able to study it for proof of improvement, as well as lack of improvement. By defining a behavior, practitioners are able to collect data and show change over time.
- 15Bad ABAFocus is on irrelevant curriculum.
Primarily uses food reinforcers.
Uses unnatural teaching techniques.
Primarily works in "Therapy Room".
Does not Promote parental expertise.
Endorses Alternative Treatments.
Staff not properly trained.
Not proper dosage of Treatment intensity. - 16Progressive ABAA model of ABA that can be implemented with individuals with ASD.
Science and Art (understand principles but flexibility and practice.
Originates from founding parents.
A continuum of intervention (more rigid or flexible approach?)
Attempts to avoid rigidity and set protocols.
clinical judgment*** - 17What is Clinical Judgment?Interfereing behaviors may make us adjust.
Have to look at Functions (why) because they change in the moment. - 18FuncitionsAttentiveness
Receptivity
Calm vs. agitated (catch early on)
responsiveness
Recent performance and Past performance
motivation
non-verbal behavior
staff skill level (know your skills
Child's persistence (are they trying)
Child's health
operant vs. respondent (look at emotional response. Not everything is under operant end).
