The Applied Behavioral Analysis (ACA/ABA) methodology is the only scientifically proven effective treatment for children with ASD and PDD. It is a treatment that focuses on the application of basic behavioral principles to significant behaviors in children. Behavior itself as the objective of change.
ABA is the treatment in the branch of psychology that has provided the greatest number of quality scientific studies, published in journals with methodological review criteria, demonstrating the effectiveness of various behavioral procedures and techniques in reducing inappropriate behaviors, as well as in increase in the repertoire of appropriate behaviors and new skills, specifically in children with autism.
The methodology that accompanies us in the method seeks to identify the functional relationships between behavior and the environment. The application of ABA programming defines the Method in a complete, precise and systematic way. The procedures are linked and described in terms of basic principles of effective behavior and we seek to make behavioral changes meaningful for children and their families.
In general, an attempt is made to embrace a methodology that contains procedures that can be applied to many individuals in different places (Baer, Wolf and Risley, 1957). A treatment that contemplates and intervenes in all areas of the child's development affected, whether by defect or excess. A treatment is designed using basic learning principles. We thus achieve that the VICON Method has positive results in any child with learning, communication and socialization difficulties , even verbal children , because its methodology is based on the learning principles that are just how any other person without a disability learns.
El programa de intervención se dirige al desarrollo funcional de todas las áreas críticas en el desarrollo del niño. En la programación diseñada, las habilidades a enseñar se descomponen en partículas de aprendizaje tan pequeñas ideales para el formato de vídeo asegurando así que se cumplan los objetivos en una gran variedad de perfiles diagnósticos.
Estos procedimientos y técnicas de intervención han sido y continúan desarrollándose a nivel internacional a través de la investigación de miles de profesionales del ABA. Utilizamos el Reforzamiento Positivo integrado en el propio programa, en nuestra enseñanza a través de la música y la gran motivación que la mayoría de los niños presentan por un formato de vídeo. De esta manera, podemos mantener una atmósfera de éxito en la que el aprendizaje del niño es mucho más probable.
