  2. Applied behavior analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Applied_behavior_analysis

    ABA is an applied science devoted to developing procedures which will produce observable changes in behavior. [3] [9] It is to be distinguished from the experimental analysis of behavior, which focuses on basic experimental research, [10] but it uses principles developed by such research, in particular operant conditioning and classical conditioning.

  3. Professional practice of behavior analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Professional_practice_of...

    Properly performed, applied behavior analysis should be done in both artificial (table) and natural environments depending on the student's progress and needs. [56] Once a student has mastered a skill at the table the team should move the student into a natural environment for further training and generalization of the skill.

  4. Natural language procedures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_language_procedures

    Natural language training is a set of procedures used by behavior analysts that rely heavily on mand training in the natural environment. These procedures include incidental teaching, functional communication training, and pivotal response treatment, which are used to mirror the natural areas of language use for children. [1]

  5. Pivotal response treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pivotal_response_treatment

    Pivotal response treatment is a naturalistic intervention model derived from the principles of applied behavior analysis.Rather than target individual behaviors one at a time, PRT targets pivotal areas of a child's development such as motivation, [3] responsiveness to multiple cues, [4] self-management, and social initiations. [5]

  6. Functional behavior assessment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_behavior_assessment

    Functional behavior assessment (FBA) is an ongoing process of collecting information with a goal of identifying the environmental variables that control a problem or target behavior. The purpose of the assessment is to prove and aid the effectiveness of the interventions or treatments used to help eliminate the problem behavior.

  7. Operant conditioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operant_conditioning

    Practitioners of applied behavior analysis (ABA) bring these procedures, and many variations and developments of them, to bear on a variety of socially significant behaviors and issues. In many cases, practitioners use operant techniques to develop constructive, socially acceptable behaviors to replace aberrant behaviors.

  8. Discrete trial training - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrete_trial_training

    Discrete trial training (DTT) is a technique used by practitioners of applied behavior analysis (ABA) that was developed by Ivar Lovaas at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). DTT uses mass instruction and reinforcers that create clear contingencies to shape new skills.

  9. Contingency management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contingency_management

    Contingency management (CM) is the application of the three-term contingency (or operant conditioning), which uses stimulus control and consequences to change behavior. CM originally derived from the science of applied behavior analysis (ABA), but it is sometimes implemented from a cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) framework as well.
