What is ABA?

ABA stands for “Applied Behavior Analysis,” a set of laws and principles that govern learning and behavior, and is used to improve socially significant behaviors. ABA also measures and clarifies the science of learning, and is used in adherence with treatment programs such as The Lövaas Method. While ABA in itself is not a treatment, ABA governs the behavior of every living organism. Take your daily routine for example; setting the alarm, waking up and showering, eating and driving to work. Being on time vs. not, obeying traffic laws vs. not and knowing the consequences for these behaviors is ABA!!! Most people are fluent in ABA and don’t even know it.
