About this course

In ABA, we are trained early to identify the function of behavior. Is the behavior happening for attention, are they escaping something, are they trying to access something, or is it being done automatically to receive a form of stimulation (sensory)? Today's topic will focus on the function of Automatic (sensory), meaning the behaviors is happening to function as a form of stimulation through the sensory system. This course is intended for ABA and OT practitioners to be able to access a blend of behavior and sensory. Both disciplines understand that as humans, we access information through stimulation which then is seen through our behaviors. Behavior analysts are seeking a better understanding in sensory, and OT Practitioners are seeking a better understanding in behavior. So why not blend both?
