One reason for adding a blog is that while the wiki has been great for static content, such as lists or documents, other dynamic items such as news items or small items of interest are a little harder to keep up to date in a wiki format. Hopefully this blog will be simpler solution.
Here, as at the wiki,
the "goal is to try and collect some of the info and resources to answer some common FAQs about including Skinner's Analysis of Verbal Behavior in an ABA treatment program for a child with autism, and to provide a pointer to books, videos, consultants, journal articles, and other helpful information. "

- Disclaimer 2: ABA programs, including those utilizing Skinner's Analysis of Verbal Behavior, require training, assessment, data-taking and analysis, and ongoing monitoring for ethical and effective practice. This site is here to provide background info and ease of access to info, but in no way can be construed as a substitute for input and supervision by a trained and competent professional.
- Disclaimer 3: Because of the almost overwhelming amount of information on the web, no single website will probably be comprehensive. We also apologize in advance for this, and for possible changed or inactive web addresses in the links, which are in the hands of the listed service or product. If you encounter a dead or inactive link please let us know, and I will try to bring the information up to date.
The hope is that this blog as a companion to the wiki, and as an ongoing work-in-progress, will help in locating the info to make a positive experience and change for children, their families and therapists.
Best wishes!
