Babies! Recent and historical applications of ABA with infants and their parents

If you enjoy the littlest of the littles, this webinar is for you! What could be more fun than applying the principles of our science to the improvement of socially important behaviors for the smallest humans? In this webinar we will explore research on the use of ABA with infants and their parents/caregivers. Skills such as tummy time, "back to sleep", and more will be covered and discussed. We will also discuss application of specific behavior analytic procedures (e.g., naturalistic/play-based discrete trials, preference assessment, etc.) with infants as well as parent training. Focus will be on infants under 12 months old with, without, or at risk for disabilities. Implications for practice and future research will also be discussed! Join us as we explore the wonderful world of babies!
