IABS 508 - Applied Behavior Analysis in Clinical Populations


3 Credits
This 3-credit advanced applied behavior analysis course reviews important literature on the use of applied behavior analytic principles and methods for studying and treating behavioral presentations associated with varied clinical populations (e.g. developmental disabilities and behavioral health diagnoses). Operant research methods have been used to examine almost every behavioral characteristic of clinical populations, including simple motor responses, schedule performance, acquisition of adaptive behavior, discrimination and generalization, response suppression (problem behavior) and staff training. Topics will be reviewed through an examination of primary literature, which will be supplemented by lectures and class discussions.
