Abstract
Applied behavior analysis (ABA) is a scientific discipline which investigates the variables that influence human behavior. The application of ABA in the field of ASD early intervention has generated efficacious approaches to measure and modify the behavior of young children with ASD with the goal to promote the acquisition of important skills and decrease challenging behaviors. In this chapter, we focus on the basic principles of ABA, as well as strategies and empirical evidence supporting ABA-based “early intensive behavioral intervention (EIBI)” for young children with ASD.
