A Critique of the Use of Applied Behavioural Analysis (ABA): On Behalf of the Neurodiversity Manifesto Steering Group
£0.00
Milton (2018)
Written by Dr. Damian Milton, originator of the Double Empathy Problem, this report critically examines the widespread use of Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) and Positive Behavioural Support (PBS). It highlights key criticisms of these approaches, particularly their lack of alignment with the values and lived experiences of neurodivergent communities. The report concludes with recommendations for shifting toward more neurodivergent-affirming practices that prioritise respect, autonomy, and genuine understanding over behaviour control.
