Welcome to ABA Ultimate Showdown - a podcast promoting constructive, respectful, and professional discourse to advance the field of behavior analysis. While we are finishing up the final details of Round 4, we wanted to give you a comical reminder of why it is important to use every day language when we are working with clients. The theme of this preview is, 'Leave your behavior analytic jargon at the door! Speak to and for the people!" This was a truly collaborative effort of my incredible family and contributing members of the CoBA Facebook group. Thank you to all!

*The practical functional assessment serves as an effective procedure to analyze and treat problem behavior. *

Welcome to ABA Ultimate Showdown - a podcast promoting constructive, respectful, and professional discourse to advance the field of behavior analysis.

We are stoked to be able to bring you Round 1 of the Showdown. Our first topic will be the hotly debated practical functional assessment that includes the interview-informed, synthesized contingency analysis, or IISCA, vs the traditional functional analyses, or FA. We are covering this topic across a precursor episode and one round.

We put over 100 women hours over five months into this particular podcast and spent many a late night and early morning trying to fairly and accurately portray both sides and perfect the final product. During this debate, we will construct arguments for both sides to present the audience with a comprehensive and balanced view of two sides of a controversial topic.

Welcome to ABA Ultimate Showdown - a podcast promoting constructive, respectful, and professional discourse to advance the field of behavior analysis.

In March of 2020, amidst the US’s stay at home recommendations, we were asked to participate in a forum for stressed professionals to take a break and connect with others. We jumped at the chance to work some levity into our format. It ended up being a great day of collaboration and definitely took our minds off of everything that is going on in the world. We hope this finds you and your loved ones in good health and send our thoughts and best wishes to all of you. Thank you to the Ryan and Salena for inviting us as well as everyone who participated in the meet up!
