Real World” BCBAs, the “Behavior Crisis”, and Pathological Demand Avoidance

In daily practice in “real world” settings like schools, homes, or, community practice BCBAs report their conventional ABA strategies failing to support PDA and other “problem” behavior of conversational humans with disabilities served by BCBAs. This CEU provides theory and research to describe the evolution of the modern day “behavior crisis” including current knowledge of PDA, and providing ACT as a workable solution for BCBAs in real world settings where resources are limited and there is no shortage of “problems” to solve.
