About ABA

Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) is an evidence-based approach centred on scientific principles. ABA involves targeting socially significant changes to improve an individual’s quality of life. Any behaviour can be observed, which helps us identify factors that influence it. Once these factors are identified, strategies are implemented to increase desired behaviours and reduce behaviours of concern. We select motivating items or activities and use these to increase learning opportunities. ABA also prioritises learning by encouraging repeated exposure to the goals in play-based settings and in the natural environment.
