This is the future home of the Blog of the Practitioner Issues in Behavior Analysis Special Interest Group (PIBA-SIG) of the Association for Behavior Analysis International.
Our plan is to post news items and comment pieces on legislation and other matters related to the practice of behavior analysis, of interest to practitioners and within the mission of the PIBA-SIG. As a Special Interest Group, while under the umbrella of ABA International, the PIBA-SIG does not represent official policy of ABA International, and is rather, an interested group of members engaged in highlighting external and internal events relevant to the practice and profession of behavior analysis, engaging in discussion of these, and working on projects with an eye to assisting and collaborating with other SIGs and the larger organization in its goals for meeting the needs of practioners and establishment of behavior analysis as a profession.
Our Mission
As applied behavior analysis forms into a profession it is logically developing challenges uniquely related to the practice of behavior analysis in systems such as education, mental health, manufacturing, social services, and developmental disabilities. This SIG is dedicated to the establishment of behavior analysis as a unique clinical practice. We support federal, local and state initiatives including but not limited to the licensing of behavior analysis
While we're setting up our blog, we would like to direct your attention to the links in the sidebar to the description of the PIBA SIG at ABA International, our website, the Practice Resources within ABA International, and our related discussion group at Yahoo!, where we invite interested members of ABA International who are in clinical practice, organizational behavior management, or social services, consumers of those services and/or interested in policymaking and professional licensure to join the group and become members.
