Episode 337 - ABA and Down Syndrome w. Dr. Kathleen Feeley
As the insurance landscape for ABA services continues to open up new avenues for families to search for the best evidence-based treatments (way to go MA!), BCBAs may find themselves unwittingly practicing outside of their scope of competence. Case in point: Working with clients with Down syndrome. So, rather than fall back on the "behavior analytic principles are true for all organisms" excuse, why not dive into the research on ABA and Down syndrome by listening to this week's episode. And, if that's not enough for you, how about hearing directly from Dr. Kathleen Feeley who has been supporting learners with Down syndrome with ABA methods for years. Nothing feels better than building one's competence in a new area! This episode is available for 1.0 DUAL-DIAGNOSIS (QABA)/1.0 LEARNING (BACB) CEU.

Happy 10th Anniversary, ABA Inside Track! Yes, after 10 years of laughs, research discussion, and podcasting, we're finally reaching the Tin-phase of the show (because we're so durable). Though, beyond our long-winded trips down memory lane, we're still here doing what we do best: Creating amazing discussions about topics and research that matter to behavior analysts. Plus a Book Club! We kick the month off with some special guests including Dr. Kathleen Feeley who brings us up to speed on supporting children with Down syndrome using ABA methodology, and friend of the show, Dr. Casey Clay, who shows us how to extend preference assessment technology to the social interaction realms. Finally, we wrap up our regular episodes with a dip into OBM by reviewing the research on using public posting to improve employee performance. Then, our Spring Book Club sprouts with a very timely discussion of "The Anxious Generation" by Johnathan Haidt with Book Club Guy, Alan Haberman. Put down your social media feeds and pick up your mp3 players! It's learning time.

But hey, while she was at it, why not explain how consequences impact evolution, or gene expression, or social improvement strategies. And add multiple examples of how consequences work in labs and the natural environment across a wide range of human and non-human species. And make it fun to read! But before our crack Book Club squad dives into the nitty gritty of the content, we had the opportunity to sit down with herself to ask how she managed to take millions of years of the effects of consequences and pack it into a 300+ page book as well as how her study of consequences informs her current work as a climate change policy advocate.

(REBROADCAST) Book Club 3 - Coercion and Its Fallout
ROB: I have behavior analysis and this book to thank for my growth as a human being and for helping me to understand how so many of the harms of the modern Republican party--a party I voted consistenly for until 2016--have led us to the cruel, fascistic situations we find ourselves here in American under the Trump administration. Yet despite the recent killings in Minnesota, some portion of U.S. citizens still consider Trump and his jackbooted thugs worth supporting. Hopefully at least all of our listeners are disgusted and outraged at the actions of the President. If not listen to our discussion of Murray Sidman's still timely "Coercion and Its Fallout". I don't think a person with any knowledge of the science of human behavior could read this important work and not be utterly apoplectic at the unethical garbage spewed by the White House and its staff. And, if you're already mad as hell about the state of America, you'll be DOUBLE-MAD!! But have more succinct words as to how things could and should be better. If you missed this episode when we released it many years ago, now's a great time to hear it. And, if you've been with us since our episodes were still in double-digits, enjoy a revisit of the work that asks the very important question: Is it worth supporting systems that lionize the use of negative reinforcement and punishment at the exclusion of all else? Our original post(s) EPISODE 91: It’s time for the 3rd Annual ABA Inside Track book club. This year we’ll be discussing the late, great Murray Sidman’s important social work Coercion and Its Fallout. Rob, Diana, and Jackie go on a deep dive through chapters 1-10 of the book including a discussion of rat behavior, societal shocks, and a laundry list of the crummy ways in which society treats itself. EPISODE 92: How hot is our book club discussion of chapters 11-19 in Murray Sidman’s Coercion and Its Fallout? So hot Rob had to edit out about 15 minutes of our takes! What’s left goes into detailed descriptions of how many of the societal systems we take for granted are, in fact, coercive. And, of course, that there’s got to be a better way (hint: positive reinforcement). Plus, Rob and Diana describe old Disney cartoons from the 40s while Jackie sings preschool songs. Truly, something for everyone. This episode is available for 2.0 LEARNING CEUs.

Heeeeeey, it's Rob's birthday. Time to pick this month's theme! Maybe it's the near decade's worth of podcasting, but this February, Rob decided that his impeding aging anniversary should also receive celebration in the form of "OOPS! All Rob picked articles". So, given carte blanche to talk about anything in the world of ABA, what did he choose? Well, first, he took the week off while we unlock last year's Winter Book Club on "The Science of Consequences" with a bonus interview with author Dr. Susan Schneider (interested in 2.5 CEs for free? Upgrading to the is your answer). After that, he brings special guest, , to the table to learn about the state of therapeutic role-playing games and how your weekly D+D game could be added into your ABA services. And finally, because it's been far too long and is one of the most mind-blowingly awesome procedures in his 20 years in the field, Rob brings back the Preschool Life Skills for a record-breaking THIRD time! The best part about Rob's birthday is by just listening to these episodes, you've already gotten him all the gifts he could ever want. NOTE: We talk a lot about the upcoming changes to the website. Well, due to some technical problems, we had to rush the to...LAST WEEK! Hopefully will take you straight there, but, if not, our new website is now !

Episode 334 - The Changing Criterion Design
Finally, after nearly 10 years, it’s the changing criterion design’s time to shine! While often seen as the little brother to our more robust experimental designs, this week we discuss when the changing criterion could be your design of choice in research and practice and look at some of the more convincing cases of how the little step-wise graph that nobody liked should really be a key player in your visual display toolbox.

Episode 333 - Risk Assessment w. Dr. Stephanie Peterson, Dr. Rebecca Eldridge, + Dr. Neil Deochand
While completing a functional behavior assessment is an ethical requirement before engaging in behavior change programming, only a minority of BCBAs consistently do this. And since many of the barriers to completing FAs revolve around seemingly insurmountable (and ethical concern of) risks to clicents, wouldn’t having a more structured way to assess the risk of an FA and more quickly review mitigating factors provide a potential solution to these problems? Well, that’s exactly what Dr. Stephanie Peterson and her former students Dr. Rebecca Eldridge and Dr. Neil Deochand thought when they developed their Functional Analysis Risk Assessment Decision Tool. This week, as voted on by , how to complete a risk assessment before starting your functional analysis from the people at the forefront of this research. This episode is available for 1.0 ETHICS CEU.

Episode 332 - Motivational Interviewing w. Dr. Monica Gilbert
When working with clients to support their behavior change goals, does it ever feel like you’re the one doing all the convincing that the change is worth the effort? Rather than spending your energy cajoling clients that your plan is “right”, wouldn’t it be better to support their own belief in engaging in behavior change? Well, that’s just what motivational interviewing techniques can do. And since this well-studied process is only just getting interest in behavior analysis, we’re joined this week by , clinical psychologist, mental health counselor, AND BCBA, to get a crash course of the basics of how motivational interviewing can improve communication between clinicians and clients to boost your therapeutic alliance building skills into overdrive.

Episode 326 - Difficulty During Transitions (Fall 2025 Listener Choice)
Could it be? Could Jackie’s option for Listener Choice actually have won the poll? I guess everybody really wants to learn more about the challenges involved in moving from one activity to the next. So, in this episode, that’s exactly what we’ll review. Are there good treatment options when putting down the iPad and joining an arts and crafts activity leads to tears?

Episode 325 - Safety Skills
Despite Rob disbelieving it, we’ve gone 300+ episodes without ever devoting an entire hour to research covering safety skills. So, before Dr. Miltenberger busts in to give us feedback about our failing, in situ-style, we get right on it. Aside from looking at specific examples of safety skills training with firearms and earthquakes, we look at the larger swath of training research to figure out what works best, what gets used most, and what components provide that extra-special treatment magic that your program can’t succeed without. Stop, drop, and roll! This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU.
