| dc.description | This text offers a valuable ready-to-use resource for academic- and field-based
professionals. The wide range of cases provided across the life span offer applied
learning and professional development opportunities for students and practitioners
in a multitude of disciplines. Examples include ABA, special education, disability
studies, early childhood education, primary and secondary education, gerontology,
and organizational behavior management.
Within academic contexts, these case studies offer students in college and uni-
versity programs at the diploma, undergraduate, and graduate degree levels, a
process to support the fusion of theoretical and practical components of ABA.
Within service delivery contexts, this text offers a practical professional develop-
ment resource for individuals or teams new to behavior analysis-based services, as
well as a valuable refresher for more seasoned professionals. Case studies can be
completed by individual practitioners as part of individualized professional devel-
opment or supervision programs, or alternatively completed simultaneously by
whole teams to support group learning and development.
Included in each chapter are sample figures, graphs, and templates. Exercises in
each chapter offer hands-on activities to apply skills and complete exercises based
on the case study and in online environments. Examples include visual displays of
behavior data, behavior data sheet templates, and behavior assessment forms. These
resources offer learners the opportunity to conduct simulated behavior assessment,
data collection, data graphing, and data analysis activities: key components and
hallmarks of ABA practice.Preface | en_US |
| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this publication is to provide ready-to-use case studies to accom-
pany current academic textbooks and field training materials used by students and
professionals studying, teaching, and working in the field of Applied Behavior
Analysis (ABA). Through 50 case studies, learners are provided opportunities to
apply ABA principles, processes, and practices to a range of scenarios across the
life span. These scenarios offer a simulated platform for learners to design,
implement, and evaluate behavior-change programs for children, adolescents,
adults, and seniors across a range of home, school, and community settings.
The case studies within this work reflect the field experience of the authors as
well as that of the academic faculty, field-based professionals, and students that
contributed to the development of this valuable resource. Each case encourages
users to reflect on, and think critically about, selected concepts and principles of
ABA. When combined, the 50 cases within this text guide learners through the
phases of behavior-analytic practice—from assessment and planning through
implementation and evaluation—while offering a range of research and ethical
considerations central to the science and practice of behavior analysis. | en_US |
