By observing and responding to different behaviors, ABA therapists provide guidance to patients with the intention of helping to alter those behaviors in an observable way.
ABA Therapy Areas of Intervention:
- To increase on-task behaviors or social interactions
- To maintain behaviors (e.g., self control and self monitoring procedures to maintain and generalize job-related social skills)
- To generalize or to transfer behavior from one situation or response to another
- To restrict or narrow conditions under which interfering behaviors occur (e.g., modifying the learning environment)
- To reduce interfering behaviors (e.g., self injury or stereotypy)
