About this site

I created this site for multiple reasons: as an independent marketing tool, an educational outlet, and as a forum for colleagues, parents and any other interested person who wants to know, learn or discuss Applied Behavior Analysis.

You will find the defining characteristics of the science under the Applied Behavior Analysis tab. ABA is only for children diagnosed with Autism, right? No? To find out what is fact and what is fiction in the field, visit Common Misconceptions. Want to know more about Applied Behavior Analysis, then do not forget to visit VERY imformative links and Videos: Tactics & Techniques. While this website has information dedicated to the application for individuals diagnosed on the Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), this website also attempts to address and include examples and access to cross-disciplinary applications of the science such as in animal behavior and SLP-ABA approaches. When you are ready to read more on the topic on your own, you might want to start with some of the information listed under Literary Resources. You may also find Documents for Download a useful resource which offers templates, data sheets, samples, and powerpoint presentations. To assist you in interpreting the language of the land, visit the list of Acronyms and Terms found on this site. Information on this website is updated on a monthly basis in attempts to present current information from the field. Please let me know you were here by signing the guestbook and feel free to email any questions or comments to ankelly01@yahoo.com.

For Behavior Analysts!

Recently, I've dedicated the CE events page to a listing of BACB approved Continuing Education events in the Boston area. You will also find information on upcoming Behavioral events via the Calendar page. In addition, I've created a page which showcases BAND events a.k.a. the Behavior Analyst Networking Dinners. BAND provides a forum for behavior analysts to share ideas and discuss a variety of topics related to the field of Applied behavior analysis. The events are held monthly, the first Wednesday of the month. On occassion, I will also list local, Boston-area postings for ABA practitioners on the Jobs 4 ABA Professionals page.

Thank you for taking the time to visit this site!
