General CEU: Emotional Management: Communicating and Collaborating with Teachers and Other Non-ABA Professionals

Emotional Management: Communicating and Collaborating with Teachers and Other Non-ABA Professionals is the kind of topic that looks straightforward until it collides with the speed, ambiguity, and competing demands of clinic sessions and day-to-day service delivery. In Emotional Management: Communicating and Collaborating with Teachers and Other Non-ABA Professionals, for this course, the practical stakes show up in clearer roles, fewer duplicated efforts, and better coordinated intervention, not in abstract discussion alone.

Course Description

Communicating and collaborating with teachers and non-ABA professionals is critical for continuity of care in clinical practice. In this presentation, we discuss emotional management and how we as behavior analysts can approach collaboration in treatment of emotional regulation. We dive into defining emotions and emotional vocabulary and what behaviors can be expected at different levels of emotional development. We then discuss different behavior analytic strategies for helping students manage their emotions and review EQ (emotional intelligence) activities teachers or other practitioners can use in classroom and clinical settings. Finally, we discuss different communication styles and how they can affect behavior and emotional responding.

What You'll Learn

  1. Compare the physiological and behavioral indicators of emotional dysregulation across different learner profiles and contexts.
  2. Evaluate evidence-based ABA strategies for teaching self-regulation skills, including reinforcement, prompting, and coping techniques.
  3. Apply how to develop behavior intervention plans that incorporate emotional regulation goals using functional assessment data.
