Welcome to ABA Today™
What is ABA?
Behavior analysis is the scientific study of behavior. The underlying philosophy of behavior analysis is behaviorism; the idea that a science of behavior, and therefore behavior change, is possible (Baum). Through direct observation of behavior and manipulation of the environment, behavior can be changed. Applied behavior analysis (ABA) is the application of the principles of behavior analysis with the goal of changing socially significant behaviors.
- Baer, Wolf & Risley, 1968
For over four decades, behavioral scientists have been observing, measuring and changing behaviors, publishing the results in peer-reviewed journals, and contributing to the development of skills for individuals of different ages and with varying diagnoses.
ABA Today™, Inc. provides applied behavior analysis (ABA therapy) to children, adolescents and adults throughout New Hampshire in home, community, school, and clinic-based environments. Programs are individually designed and are based on B.F. Skinner’s (1957) analysis of verbal behavior. Programs are designed and overseen by a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) or Board Certified Associate Behavior Analyst (BCaBA). ABA Today™, is unique in that additional support is provided to therapists and families by graduate-level case managers who are pursuing board certification.
