Description

Updated in a new ninth edition, this market-leading book provides comprehensive coverage of behavior management concepts and techniques and presents them in a versatile, practical, and accessible manner for teachers. KEY TOPICS: The ninth edition uses classroom-based examples and practices firmly grounded in research. Content is presented in the order of decision-making by a teacher who has a student exhibiting challenging behavior in class or a college student who needs to execute a behavior-change project. The book covers identifying target behavior, collecting and graphing data, functional assessment, experimental design, arranging antecedents and consequences, and generalizing behavior change. The importance of ethical considerations in using applied behavior analysis in the classroom is now presented at the beginning of the book to highlight the importance of applying principles and practices responsibly. Inservice teachers and special educators.
