Jump to navigationJump to search Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a scientific approach to understanding behavior and the underlying principles that govern it. It involves systematic observation and analysis of behavior, and the use of principles of learning and behavior change to modify behavior in meaningful and practical ways. ABA is commonly used in the treatment of autism and developmental disabilities, but its principles and techniques have also been applied in fields such as education, business, and sports. The goal of ABA is to improve quality of life and increase functional independence through the development of new skills and the reduction of problem behaviors.
