If we could all have a little beep that cues us to stop or else punishment is likely to come up next…

That second helping we didn’t need
I’ll just put this on my Visa shopping sprees

About

I consider myself a behaviourist (the radical kind). Just finished my master's in disability studies and applied behaviour analysis (ABA) and am working towards board certification. I work in a school board facilitating ABA practices in the classroom setting of students with challenging behaviours and complex needs. My goal is for people to understand behaviourism and ABA as it relates to everything we do. I aim to accomplish this by highlighting everyday examples of behaviour analytic principles.

ABA is more than a therapy and has wider applications beyond autism. I believe that solutions to society's problems (which are really, behaviour problems) can be solved using the science of ABA. Change is possible when the behaviour is analyzed and the environmental contingencies are arranged.

I also write to clarify common misconceptions about behaviourism and ABA. There's more to the science than just rewards and punishment.

When I'm not reading Skinner or JABA articles, I indulge in doughnuts and music. My relationship with either of those vices may creep into these posts. ~Tricia-Lee
