Ready to learn more and engage in philosophic doubt, Mike and Dan take on a recent opinion published by the well-known education writer, Alfie Kohn. Kohn lends an eloquent criticism of ABA, pointing to recent meta-analyses that aim to question, if not eliminate, any socially significant effects and benefits of ABA-based interventions, as used with individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder, for example. Kohn's arguments are carefully examined, credited where deserving, and aptly corrected in an effort to preserve their value, while rectifying errors in terms. That said, ABA has a wealth of empirical research and validation highlighting its effectiveness and value. However its implementation, like any other active system, can always benefit from examination, improvement and evolution toward a perpetually stronger ethical integrity. Mike and Dan offer thoughts, insights and discussion to posit ABA, its current strengths and future directions.
ABA on Tap is committed to providing you with a clean 'pour' on this philosophy of a science in practice, ABA, and the facts surrounding its active implementation given our daily study and professional experience. We invite Alfie Kohn to join us and discuss his views further on a future episode and we value his prospective effort in listening and exchanging knowledge. His article, as discussed in this episode, can be found at https://www.alfiekohn.org/blogs/autism/.
Thank you for tuning in. Please do send us your comments and questions on Facebook. Finally a quick THANK YOU to LANTERN GIRLS for our new outro music.
And always analyze responsibly.
