Session 7 – Greg Hanley on Function Based Treatment

Dr. Greg Hanley returns to the Behavioral Observations Podcast, and in this episode we talk about best practices for functional analyses and function-based treatment. He patiently coaches me on some of my attempts to conduct IISCA-type Functional Analyses and FCT interventions. Finally, we also get into some interesting discussions including how research influences practice (or vice-versa), as well as the proper role of descriptive assessments in our clinical work.

Greg has generously offered to return to the podcast to do some Q & A, so if you have questions about these topics, go to the contact page and let me know what's on your mind.

For additional resources on these topics, check out Greg's website, www.practicalfunctionalassessment.com. Greg also has an online CE training on these topics, and to learn more about this, check out this post at www.behavioralobservations.com.

Finally, this podcast is sponsored by bSci21.org, which is an ABA news site that connects our science to everyday applications. If you get a chance, go check out some of the thought provoking stories that are available over there.
