Book Synopsis Ethics for Behavior Analysts by : Jon Bailey
Download or read book Ethics for Behavior Analysts written by Jon Bailey and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-04-21 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Behavior analysis, a rapidly growing profession, began with the use and application of conditioning and learning techniques to modify the behavior of children or adults presenting severe management problems, often because of developmental disabilities. Now behavior analysts work in a variety of settings, from clinics and schools to workplaces. Especially since their practice often involves aversive stimuli or punishment, they confront many special ethical challenges. Recently, the Behavior Analysis Certification Board codified a set of ten fundamental ethical guidelines to be followed by all behavior analysts and understood by all students and trainees seeking certification. This book shows readers how to follow the BACB guidelines in action. The authors first describe core ethical principles and then explain each guideline in detail, in easily comprehensible, everyday language. The text is richly illuminated by more than a hundred vivid case scenarios about which the authors pose, and later answer questions for readers. Useful appendices include the BACB Guidelines, an index to them, practice scenarios, and suggested further reading. Practitioners, instructors, supervisors, students, and trainees alike will welcome this invaluable new aid to professional development.

Book Synopsis The Nine Degrees of Autism by : Philip Wylie
Download or read book The Nine Degrees of Autism written by Philip Wylie and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-10-12 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Nine Degrees of Autism presents a much-needed positive tool for understanding the developmental process of autism, and to facilitate the improved mental health and well-being of individuals on the spectrum. The ground-breaking model charts nine distinct stages of development - from pre-identification, to learning to live with changes in self-image following a late diagnosis, through to self-acceptance and wellbeing. Using the model as a framework each chapter focuses on a particular stage of the process. Experts provide personal insights into the environmental and societal challenges faced by individuals with autism, and dispel a number of popular misconceptions. The positive developmental model described in this book will encourage people on the Spectrum to accept themselves by focusing on their gifts rather than weaknesses, and to avoid identifying with negative medical classifications. The developmental process which the authors describe is also applicable to other ‘hidden’ neurological conditions such as Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, Aphasia, and ADHD. The book should be read by anyone who wants to understand the real nature and experience of autism and will also be essential reading for a range of professionals seeking to work more effectively with individuals on the spectrum.

Book Synopsis Parents' Education as Autism Therapists by : Michael Keenan
Download or read book Parents' Education as Autism Therapists written by Michael Keenan and published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers. This book was released on 2000 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clear, focused, and practical, this book is a useful introduction to ABA for parents and professionals working with children with autism. Successful child rearing is an essential skill for any parent. For most of us this skill is handed down from our own parents and society in general. In real terms this means that rather than relying on any formal instruction to help us, we bring up our children using skills based largely upon common sense and a willingness to do our best. These methods are, by-and-large, successful in everyday situations. However, when it comes to more difficult aspects of developing skills in our children, we need something more dependable than good will. Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA), the systematic implementation of scientifically proven behavioural principles offers just that. Aimed at enhancing people's lives in ways that they or their carers feel are important, it includes a variety of methods and techniques which can be used to promote, decrease, or maintain skills for daily living. ABA has been used to help children with autism for many years in many countries. In Northern Ireland the PEAT group offers parents the education necessary to become their own child's therapists using ABA. In this book these parents and the professionals involved in their training share their knowledge, experience, and successes.

Book Synopsis How to Think Like a Behavior Analyst by : Jon Bailey
Download or read book How to Think Like a Behavior Analyst written by Jon Bailey and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-04-15 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to Think Like a Behavior Analyst is a revolutionary resource for understanding complex human behavior and making potentially significant quality of life improvements. Behavior analysts offer a worldview of the human condition different than almost any other professional perspective. To a behavior analyst, human behavior is largely learned and subject to change if the right variables are put into play. This is an empowering outlook, providing an opportunity for individuals to analyze the actions of those around them and an understanding of why others exhibit such behavior. Practical, clear, and direct, this book addresses basic questions such as how behavior analysis is different from psychotherapy, what analysis involves, and the meaning of evidence-based treatment. A chapter on Applications presents tips on using behavioral procedures to improve lives and deal with others, and articulates how behavioral procedures are used in community settings. In question and answer format, the text thoroughly covers 50 frequently asked questions about behavior analysis in an educational and entertaining manner. It was developed out of questions raised by students in behavior analysis classes over the last 35 years, as well as questions raised by consumers of behavior analysis services. This text is written for all professionals concerned with behavior, including undergraduate students in psychology and behavior analysis, parents, teachers, employers, and employees. The book can easily be used as a supplement to primary texts in introductory psychology courses, and the exercises that follow each question can be used to stimulate lively discussion in role-play and other active learning situations.

Book Synopsis ABA Therapy for Nonverbal Toddlers by : Mary Kelso
Download or read book ABA Therapy for Nonverbal Toddlers written by Mary Kelso and published by . This book was released on 2021-12-14 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) can be beneficial to encourage communication for early childhood special needs children that are nonverbal, minimally verbal, or late talking toddlers. This book introduces errorless teaching that is used to teach preschool learning activities and concepts without errors or mistakes by the child. ABA methods for kids can help to avoid or decrease frustration by making learning fun by building confidence and enthusiasm with teaching instructions. Selecting preferred reinforcement is discussed so new skills, as well as self-control and patience can be rewarded. Teaching techniques for receptive and expressive language skills for children with autism spectrum disorders are provided. This includes helpful methods to talk with your toddler and encourage communication. There are instructions for making your own story books so they can be used to develop basic concepts that will help to prepare children for kindergarten readiness skills. Another part of ABA therapy is behavior control to decrease challenging or inappropriate behavior such as aggression or self-injury behavior (SIB). This book does not address these issues because they are not always present with nonverbal children. This book should not be a substitute for advice from a BCBA, SLP, Early Intervention Specialist or any other professional that can work one-on-one with a child.
