DESCRIPTION
Behaviorspeak is a glossary of terms in common usage in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) and the autistic-spectrum disorders. Deliberately written in a humorous and easily understood style, this will be an invaluable resource for parents and direct care service providers. ABA is a technically precise discipline, where a misunderstanding of a term can lead to a misapplied technique. Behaviorspeak will give readers the tools necessary to understand articles in professional journals, presentations, and books. A KINDLE version is now also available.

REVIEWS

As I opened my initial text in ABA I was somewhat daunted (and depressed) when I realized I had to learn a new language to effectively assess the material I needed to cover. I was unwittingly the subject of a Stroop experiment - in short, my reading automaticity was off and I spent an inordinate amount of time re-reading the same passages.

I checked the glossary for clarification. Well, the same authors who wrote the book, wrote the glossary, using the same language - not a big help. I then turned to "Behaviorspeak" which was part of my "bundle" and was ecstatic! The terms were explained in the vernacular with clear, often amusing, examples given. The time saved in trying to tease out the terminology was huge, and I could easily check to see if I was using the proper terms while writing papers. I would love to see a student's edition of this book, expanding on the academic and technical terms we use.

I highly recommend this book for every student pursuing a course in Applied Behavior Analysis! It will save you time,energy and lower your stress level.
