ED 684 Applied Behavior Analysis V: Behavioral Consultation in Homes, Schools and Communities


(3 credits)
This course focuses primarily on behavioral consultation skills needed to produce a strong behavior analytic case conceptualization and to link that conceptualization to intervention. This course uses online technology in combination with role plays and feedback to build behavior analytic case conceptualization and execute effective behavioral consultation. Behavioral case conceptualization is the integration of information from a functional assessment, complete with skills and adaptive behavior assessment, as well as ecological assessment. Special topics include behavior analytic models of teacher and parent resistance, as well as interventions for resistance. This course is an intensive lab course that focuses on the practical aspects of “how to” consulting (i.e., what is done each session, each step of the way). It is critical that students participate in each class to engage in the role-plays and get feedback from other students.

Prerequisite: Admission to the program and satisfactory completion of Applied Behavior Analysis I, II, III and IV with a “B” or better.
