What is Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)?
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is the science in which the principles of the analysis of behavior are applied systematically to improve socially significant behavior and experimentation is used to identify the variables responsible for behavior change. (Cooper, Heron, and Heward 2007)
Applied behavior analysis is the only evidence based treatment for ASD, and focuses on improving educational and socially significant behaviors. These behaviors often include tantrums, aggression, self-stimulatory and self-injurious behaviors. Cusps and Capabilities, LLC treats behaviors based on their function, applying the basic behavioral principles of reinforcement.
