ABA 513 - Concepts and Principles

In this foundational course, students will learn the underlying concepts and principles upon which behavior analysis is based. Key learning objectives include, but are not limited to, basic concepts and principles of operant learning and respondent conditioning. Practical application activities are embedded in the course to ensure transfer of knowledge to real world practice contexts, including providing students with a framework to use both technical terminology as well as colloquial description of the same. This course aligns with the Behavior Analyst Certification Board’s (BACB^®) 6th edition test content outline (TCO) and focuses primarily within the concepts and principles section. Other key elements from the TCO will be included throughout the course as well.
