    About this audiobook

    How can applied behavior analysis improve social and learning skills?

    It is a systematic manipulation of behavioral concepts to change behavior at any moment during a child's day.

    Many ABA methods require teaching, which is driven in a highly structured manner by parents, while others use the innate desires of the learner to obey his or her initiations. In the sense of current operations, certain methods teach skills. Both abilities are broken down into small steps or parts, and many regular chances are given for learners to acquire and exercise skills in a variety of settings with ample positive reinforcement.

    Cognitive behavioral training is used to teach children with ASD to control and regulate their own actions by modifying their attitudes, self-understanding, and values, based on the assumption that improvements are most likely to occur whenever a person becomes actively involved in their own behavior.

    Neurofeedback includes tracking brain activity while a person engages with computer programs created specifically to facilitate focus or other skills. Sleep therapies educate parents and children in strategies for dealing with challenging sleep patterns typical in children with ASD and for developing schedules for sleep.

    Throughout comparison to the ABA, ABA-based, and EIBI strategies mentioned previously, all such therapeutic techniques are used. In this audiobook, you'll learn:

    • What is autism and how it can be handled with applied behavioral analysis (ABA)
    • How behavioral analysis can be used with autism
    • How to link operant behaviors with ABA
    • How to analyze behavioral change and pay attention to even the slightest changes
    • How to use procedures basic reinforcement to increase a behavior

      This edition is much thicker than what I’m used to seeing in school however the quality of the book itself is great. No marks or scratches or missing pages.
    • 5/5
      This book provides the best text-book style introduction to Applied Behavior Analysis there is. The writing is straight-forward and well-organized. The only thing one could wish for is a second edition, but in the foreword it states they promised their families that there woulnd't be one :)

      The book came in perfect condition! No rips, tears, bent edges! I'm quite surprised, so excited to get started on listening!

      Suppose you are on the fence about getting the Book. This one was the least cost that I could find. I like to have an actual book....and you WILL use it. My professor has pulled her copy from her bookshelf for reference several times. Oh and this is the MAIN book for BCBA.

      I'm setting up a home ABA program for my children. This is perfect for that, because I already have a strong psychology background. I wouldn't recommend it for a layperson, though. It is pretty science heavy.
    • 5/5
      Delivered in perfect condition and I’m beyond excited to get started with graduate school with this awesome ABA book! Highly recommend it for those studying to be behavior analysts!
