Great video. Some of these i use with an older child i work with ar work, he knows when hes angry and not talking to me with respect i will not speak to him until he does and it really works. Token economy is good for getting him to do work too, however he is now rushing his work just to get the token meaning he gets it all wrong, so i may need to rethink it
stop fucking touching him jesus christ do none of you realize alot of us hate being touched wtf do any of you realize how many of us get traumatized because of ABA
I don't think the boy appreciated being touched in the manner you were touching him. The girl was trying to communicate with you in her natural way, and you ignored her. That's the same as the silent treatment.
ABA should be axed. Autistic children are not dogs that learn tricks for food and tickles. Instead of spending hours of therapy trying to make them more neurotypical to fit in your world....try spending those hours getting to know them, their world, their perceptions of it, their ideas of accomplishment or success, and guiding them on their own path, on their own terms, as they navigate their place in the world.
I’m curious why I keep seeing that weird tickling in every ABA therapy video I watch…I have 2 autistic children and as I weigh out therapy options I keep seeing these bizarre tickles and in your face motions followed by some squeaky loud voices..why is this done? It’s uncomfortable to watch…
I'm about to get an evaluation for autism (I 'm an adult so it's much harder) but I was watching this and thought to myself how uncomfortable this system would be - the tickling and random touches especially. It would put me on guard. Tickling personllay gives me EXTREME anxiety and makes me want to panic. I do not want to be randomly touched like that. This would be so overstimulating for me as a kid and even now.. I am personally glad I never had to go through this therapy
I thought it was part of desensitization. Neurotypical kids usually like tickling and high pitched reward voices are excitement and rewarding. Autistic kids usually don't. So, by using touch as a reward they're trying to get the kids used to being touched.
Behaviour analysts use a reinforcer preference assessment before designing a teaching plan for a learner. Everything, including the choice of reinforcer, is data-driven, using data from the situation with the learner and their environment. A lot of people make unnecessarily harsh assumptions about BCBAs, BCaBAs and RBTs. This is based on a culture of hate in the community to which they belong: the whole anti-ABA community, whose entire premise is based on lies told on a website two decades ago that has long since disappeared off the net. I wonder why. Did it turn out that its makers were absolute liars? Probably, since not a single report could be found from the periods claimed for the 'torture' and the 'abuse' in either newspapers or police/hospital reports or in journals ... and, if it were happening as they told it, there WOULD have been reports of it. I spent a year looking into this for my M. Ed. in educational psychology. Not a single case came up. And not a single piece of literature has been produced on the topic that was something that a third-grade school project could have bettered in terms of quality.
All thanks to God🙏 and Dr Oziengbe on RU-vid. He was able to cure my only child that was suffering from Autism with the herbal medicine I order from Dr Oziengbe
Doesn't look to me that way. More like he is very sensitive towards his shoulders and enjoys it. He did protect his head, though. Maybe he was over stimulated at that point or just couldn't anticipate what was about to happen.
You should be brought up on potential criminal charges for an egrgeious display with respect to not an infintesimal notion of what constitutes childhood mental health in your painful and stunning presentation of anti-therapeutic and ant-developmental practices.
Fixed ratio means after a certain/specific number of correct responses then a token will be rewarded. Fixed ratio = specific amount of instances. FR3 (example) would mean a Fixed ratio requiring 3 correct responses. For example - a child gets 3 math problems right and doesn't receive a token until 3 is completed. In contrast, fixed interval = a specific amount of time that has passed. FI3 (example) would mean a Fixed interval requiring 3 minutes of correct behavior. For example - A child does math problems for 3 minutes, then they receive a token.
@@mmfrogi you just helped me understand it in such a simple way! I was so confused on the different types of schedules of reinforcements for so long. How would you then but this in a graph? For example, an FR3, where would the correct number of responses go? The X axis or y? And would we just put them by 3? ( 3,6,9,12). Same with the Fixed interval, if we were expecting the correct response every 2 minutes, would we graph the axis by 2s?
You are truly welcome AJ. I have a 2 year old son on the spectrum and ABA has taught me a lot. My son does 20 hours a week. I really admire your patients, understanding and caring.
Neurotipical people cannot teach their form of communication to autistic people as their non autistic behaviour is caused by their neurological wiring.More bluntly they don`t think about what they do, just act according to their neurological program, so do we autistics. It is like there is a computer program who responds a certain way and we want to change that by punishing the computer with a nice slap on the screen when it says something undesirable, or giving it a cake when it says something desirable, it is a clearly futile action. Just like a program can only be changed by changing the program, take the processor out and put a different program in it. As we are not computers, our processor = our brain cannot be taken out and changed which means our program cannot be changed!!!!!! :) The right approach is treat autism like a different language, as we autistics are very intelligent but we communicate on a different language!
@@jerzygrudka1962 I think they mean HOW they teach them. ABA is rooted in teaching autistics to "act normal", which most people who go through it just end up masking or being traumatized by it.
@@mostrandomthings3797 I don't think everyone hates autistic people as you said. I just think most people don't understand. In this time and age though, autism awareness is increasing
