It synthesizes the most current research data and trends with best-practice interventions to form a comprehensive, state-of-the-art resource.

 Key areas of coverage include:

  • Foundations of applied behavior analysis.
  • ABA treatments for disorders comorbid with autism spectrum disorder.
  • Functional assessment for children with autism.
