LSGurdin Consulting BCBA Series: Beyond the Behavior Plan - The ADHD Interventions Behavior Analysts Overlook

Behavioral interventions for ADHD symptoms emphasize functional alternatives to maladaptive behaviors, guided by reinforcement principles and behavioral function. Contemporary evidence indicates ADHD is fundamentally a disorder of performance - the inconsistent application of intact skills - rather than a deficit of motivation or skill acquisition, and is closely associated with executive function impairments such as regulating attention and sustaining task engagement. This session shows how ABA practitioners can strengthen outcomes by scaffolding executive function alongside traditional function-based approaches, emphasizing the interplay of antecedents, behaviors and consequences. Offered in partnership with LSGurdin Consulting; BCBAs are eligible for CEs through LSGurdin Consulting.
