Matt Tincani, PhD, BCBA-D, is Professor in the Department of Teaching and Learning at Temple University. His primary focus is the application of behavioral principles to improve language, academic, social, and play skills of learners with autism spectrum disorder and other disabilities, with particular interest in Skinner’s analysis of verbal behavior. Other research interests include positive behavior support in school and community settings, scaling-up of behavioral interventions, quality of life of people with disabilities, and single-case designs. Dr. Tincani has served on the editorial boards of several prominent journals in the special education field and is an associate editor of the Journal of Positive Behavior Interventions. A Board Certified Behavior Analyst since 2000, Dr. Tincani was previously coordinator of Temple's graduate Applied Behavior Analysis program, in addition to his longstanding affiliation with the Special Education program. Andy Bondy, PhD, has over 40 years of experience working with children and adults with ASD and related developmental disabilities. For more than a dozen years he served as the director of a statewide public school program for students with autism. He and his wife, Lori Frost, pioneered the development of the Picture Exchange Communication System (PECS). Dr. Bondy designed the Pyramid Approach to Education as a comprehensive combination of broad-spectrum behavior analysis and functional communication strategies.
