The rapid advancement in the field of applied behavior analysis (ABA) over the last several decades, is likely attributable to the success in application to supporting the needs of individuals with autism spectrum disorder/autistic individuals. Yet, the power and potential of ABA is not in application to a specific area, but to any area of social significance. Applied Behavior Analysis for Business and Technology Applications provides a comprehensive discussion of the industries that ABA professionals could apply their skill set to. This volume introduces each business and industry, reviews applicable conceptual and basic work, and discusses how this work can be adopted for practical application. Divided into four distant sections: Business and Industries, Sports & Physical Fitness, Large Scale Interventions and Technology, this book outlines skills and knowledge necessary for entering the relevant workforce.
