PSYC 161 — Introduction to Applied Behavior Analysis
This course will provide an introduction to Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA), therapy designed to assist individuals living with autism and other related disabilities. While ABA has greatly contributed to autism intervention, the field has a more expansive scope. Using the theoretical foundation of ABA, this course will explore evidence-based strategies to illustrate some of the many uses of techniques based on ABA. This course is based on the Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) Task List and is designed to meet part of the 40-hour training requirement for the RBT credential. This program is offered independent of the Behavior Analysts Certification Board. For further information on the credential, see the Behavior Analysts Certification Board. Code 1 course fee.
