Diversity within Applied Behavior Analysis

Course overview

The topic of diversity is ever so broad, and all information cannot be captured within one textbook or research article. As the field of behavior analysis continues to unfold, it is important for practitioners to continue to grow and understand the complexities of each individual they work with or provide services to. As a result, these practitioners should have some understanding of working with diverse populations and obtain guidance on clinical applications as well as professional issues that could arise during their experiences. In this course, participants will learn to (1) discuss ways to become more culturally aware, (2) identify ways to increase parents' engagement in service delivery, and (3) discuss methods for addressing strengths and challenges within cross-cultural supervision.
