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!
Learning Objectives
- Describe infant behaviors that have been addressed through applied behavior analytic research in the last 20 years.
- Describe research on parent/caregiver training using applied behavior analysis strategies for their infants with and without disabilities.
- Discuss the application of specific behavior analytic procedures with infants under 12 months, with, without, or at risk for disabilities.
About the Presenter
This is a good course for someone who has a beginning interest in working with infants or toddlers. It provides history in the form of research reviews and video examples of sessions (and documents progress) with infants and toddlers. If you are interested in exploring the idea of working with this population, this course will provide good information.
Do use of literature citation in applicability/understanding really well of the topic as well as showing direct use of how ABA
It was difficult to concentrate on the presentation because of the ongoing background noise (dogs barking, birds, electronic notifications). I love dogs and birds, but in a professional presentation, these environmental distractions should be more controlled.
I'm going to be honest the dogs were SO distracting--you couldn't have had another space for them temporarily? It was hard to hear a good bit of the video. Otherwise the speaker is great, the first video is DULL but the next two were interesting.
What a great topic and new ideas! Helps renew my motivation after feeling some burnout in the field.
Between the dog barking, birds chirping and airplanes I was consistently distracted from the content.
More trainings with Dr. DiGangi!!!
What an excellent CEU! I am so excited about the see the application of our field help infants. This whole course was adorable, it went by so fast!
Especially enjoyed the videos!
I loved the topic of ABA with infants and their parents. It described how important play is for infants and how it shapes what their behaviors and their developmental skills. Play is so important and sometimes needs to be taught explicitly just like social skills and/or academic skills for some children.
