This manual is divided into two main components: (1) an overview of Applied Behavior Analysis and (2) instructional techniques and methodologies used in the ABA approach. The manual strives to address what the authors identify as the core impairments related to autism—communication, social/play interaction, cognitive development, and aberrant behavior. For each of these impairments, there is a comprehensive description and a strategic course of action for working through and around them.
