Long-term ABA Therapy is Abusive: A Response to Gorycki, Ruppel, and Zane (2022)

£0.00

Shkedy, Shkedy and Sandoval-Norton (2021)

This paper critiques a recent defense of Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA), arguing that the response misrepresents research and fails to address key issues relevant to nonverbal autistic individuals, such as intrinsic motivation, anxiety, and neurological differences. It emphasises that ABA has not demonstrated efficacy for this population and raises ethical concerns about its continued use without considering the specific needs and protections of vulnerable individuals.

Disclaimer: discusses distress, trauma and harm.
