This book offers an advanced look into methods of ABA therapy for people with autism. The author examines the similarities and differences between internal and external contingencies. This book explains what contingencies are and how people analyze them each and every day. People with autism will need more help analyzing their contingencies and recognizing which ones to handle first in life.

This book is information provided by an adult living with autism who deals with three term contingencies every day. The classic ABC contingency is the antecedent, the behavior, and the consequence. The antecedent is likely the trigger for the behavior and the consequence is what happens as a result of the behavior either positive or negative.

Consequences are not always negative and often we see positive consequences in life. If you are new to applied behavior analysis and helping people with autism this book would be a great read for you to gain a better understanding of how ABA principles are applied to help everyone get through life. ABA therapy is not just for people with autism but it is highly effective in the treatment of autism.

If you are already an ABA therapist this is a great book to read to understand how someone on the autism spectrum thinks about applied behavior analysis and how he uses it to get through every three term contingency that he deals with in his life. The author offers a fresh and unique perspective into applied behavior analysis and how it can be used to help people with autism spectrum disorder.
