Thanks, very clear. Not a BA but this tool should be ideal. And DMY 02:05 not "weird" outside the US so I'm guessing the SCC wasn't developed there. Makes sense for my UK head at any rate 🙂
Is there any historical connection between a nonlinear contingency analysis and the work of Jane Jacobs (The Death and Life of American Cities) or earlier biology research on organic nonlinear order?
I work in Early Intervention in NJ and am a BCBA. I see a lot of what she says as valid! Many practitioners with early learners who work in play-based situations tend to overlook those early skills including reciprocity and joint attention. These social behaviors are so important for our early learners.
Loved your video! I have a question. Is there more than just working with Autism? I live in Miami and it seems like all the jobs are there are with patience with Autism. I wonder how can I explore other opportunities as a BCBA. I look forward to hearing from you!
Interesting treatment strategy. But I think 18+ year old adult with I/DD need a different approach than traditional ABA approaches, and I think Dr Henley does it great, with compassion and person-centered approach. It's basically getting their assent (because they can choose to opt out and stay home) and providing environment where the learner will "want" to choose the more "socially appropriate" behavior.
Thank you for this, Ryan! Miss ya and hope you’re doing great! I’m living in Oklahoma now, a bit closer to your neck of the woods 😅 Let’s catch up some time soon!
This was cool to watch… however, I would like to give people who “complain” about the education system SOME benefit of the doubt. Education is a PRIVILEGE. I am very privileged myself to be able to get an education. Some people simply can’t get one.
I think of this as a continuum; as you age you have more control over your education to a larger degree. I’m not saying it’s fully there, but one has the ability to course change or course correct as they learn through contingencies. Re education; many have found alternative pathways with varying levels of circumstances; there’s basically an example for any situation you can imagine. I put most onus on those arranging systems and influencing them; not the ones within.
So real...thanks for posting this... i think it changes my understanding of the "profession". This is more of a calling... isn't it. (I'm a student analyst in Europe)
HUGE Dr. Winston fan myself! You gotta check out his talk "Punishment is NOT a negative procedure". Holy hell, it blew my mind. Long story short, we should be using some degree of negative punishment in the applied clinical setting, in the form of response cost or time out. These are natural contingencies and not implementing them might be setting patients up for failure when they transition to other environments. And he's a Steam nerd as well? Did we just become best friends?
What's good, brother! I'm having a difficult time understanding the difference between molecular and molar behaviorism. There are absolutely 0 videos on this, and thoughts?
It so sad how they passed away, the said in the news that he didn't respond to exiting the house he didnt know it was an emergency 😢 we have a long way to go to teach our kids danger .
So many companies are charging $300+ and I just came across one school online charging $2300 I’m so grateful for APF and glad I took my time finding their rbt program, I just enrolled today and I’m excited to leave my toxic call center job to begin a new career where my kids can extend to children/families in need
"Memorable moments in life happen when we're not being appropriate"- I always hope for a golden nugget in listening to podcasts/CEU's and that just blew my hair back.
Visual analysis is the technical term, includes a variety of steps and processes for obtaining an accurate level, trend, and variability of each data path. Teach them how to count things accurately. Quite easy actually.
Why? We used that in the 90s bc we HAD to. Now we have apps and phones and tablets that do all that for you. Not to mention who carries pencils around.
Still the only empirically validated graph in behavior analysis. So if you’re using something else it’s actually not supported by research like this. Studied in 1967-71 by Carl Koenig. Kids use it, they learn to drop their own dots! Pretty cool tool. It’s fully digital too for those that prefer that.
