This is a text based course.Â
This course provides Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) with a comprehensive understanding of applying Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) principles to enhance emotional regulation. Participants will learn to identify triggers and maintaining variables through functional assessments, develop effective behavior intervention plans (BIPs), and teach self-regulation skills using evidence-based strategies such as reinforcement and prompting. The course emphasizes ethical considerations, data-driven decision-making, and collaboration with stakeholders to ensure successful intervention outcomes. Through case studies, role-playing, and practical tools, learners will gain the skills needed to promote emotional regulation across diverse environments and maintain long-term success.
This course goes beyond the current BCBA and BCaBA Task Lists by applying behavior-analytic principles specifically to the domain of emotional self-regulation—addressing the systematic identification of triggers and maintaining variables, and the implementation of self-regulation strategies—an area not explicitly represented in existing task list items. It is behavior-analytic in nature, grounded in functional behavior assessment, the development of behavior intervention plans (BIPs), the use of reinforcement and prompting strategies, and empirical, data-driven decision-making. The course is designed for certified and aspiring behavior analysts, providing practical case studies, role-play exercises, and tools to teach self-regulation ethically and effectively across diverse environments.
This Learning/General course provides 3 CEU credits for BACB, QABA, and IBAO.
