Describing the state of the science of applied behaviour analysis, this handbook provides detailed information about theory, research, and intervention. The contributors present current best practices in behavioural assessment and offer evidence-based strategies for supporting positive behaviours and reducing problem behaviors.
Widely regarded as the authoritative work on the principles and practice of applied behavior analysis (ABA), this indispensable volume is now in a revised and expanded second edition. Leading experts present evidence-based procedures for supporting positive behaviors and reducing problem behaviors with children and adults in diverse contexts. Chapters delve into applications in education, autism treatment, addictions, behavioral pediatrics, and other areas. Covering everything from behavioral assessment and measurement to the design and implementation of individualized interventions, the Handbook is a complete reference and training tool for ABA practitioners and students. 
 
New to This Edition Incorporates key advances in research, theory, and clinical practice. Chapters on additional applications: school consultation, pediatric feeding disorders, and telehealth services. Chapters on quantitative analysis of behavior (matching and behavioral momentum theory) and behavioral economics. Updated discussions of professional issues, ABA certification, and technology tools.
