ACE – Autism and Apraxia: Why Motor Speech Therapy Matters

This is a self-paced course. It is ACE approved for CEUs.

Description: BCBAs have a standardized ethics code they have been taught since grad school. They can recite them, read them and print them off with ease. However, once in the ‘real world’ situations do not always line up perfectly with the code.  The result can be unethical behavior, poor decision making or even a lack of decision making. This talk dives into how ethical behavior is behavior that follows the law of effect as well as the rules of response effort, BST, and group contingencies.  A dip into why seemingly ‘good’ people make bad or unethical decisions is highlighted using research from both behavioral and psychological literature.
