The Pitfalls of Punishment in ABA: What Every Behavior Analyst Should Know

Описание: Punishment can reduce problem behavior—but at what cost? In this video, Dr. Justin Didomenico, BCBA-D, explains the true role of punishment in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). You’ll learn:

What punishment really means in ABA

Why reinforcement should always come first

How punishment can unintentionally teach avoidance

Why punishment alone doesn’t teach replacement skills

The importance of pairing punishment with reinforcement and alternatives

While punishment may be effective in the short term, it does not build lasting behavior change on its own. This video highlights why positive reinforcement remains the foundation of ABA and what clinicians must keep in mind before ever considering punishment procedures.
