What is ABA Therapy?
Applied Behavioral Therapy (ABA) is the scientific study of behavior. It is a social science that focuses on increasing or decreasing specific behaviors by manipulating or changing the environment. ABA uses reinforcement strategies, prompting and fading procedures, discreet trial training, natural environment training that is geared towards generalization and maintenance strategies to help clients thrive. ABA therapy also focuses on teaching replacement behaviors so that when one behavior is being decreased, another one is being taught in its place.
All this basically means that ABA is a way to teach new behaviors (skills) and decrease other behaviors (tantrums, aggression, noncompliance, etc.).
