Content Warning: Applied Behavioural Analysis (ABA) and Positive Behaviour Support (PBS)

Written by Dr Damian Milton, the creator of the Double Empathy Problem, this report addresses the commonplace usage of Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) and Positive Behavioural Support (PBS). The article examines the criticisms of these widely used approaches and discusses why they are not supported by neurodivergent communities. The author concludes by detailing recommendations for future practices that move away from ABA and PBS to more neurodivergent-affirming support.
