Session Details:

Part 4 of 4: Supporting Valued Living with Clients and Other Stakeholders

Learning Objectives:

  1. Describe how valued living applies to intervention building in behavior analytic practice.
  2. Name one contextual change they could make to focus their interventions on building valued living for clients and other stake holders.

Abstract:

Behavior analysis is dedicated to intervening on socially significant behaviors. Social significance, however, can be approached in a number of different ways. At times, social significance has been approached in terms of majority norms, which can limit true progress and even cause harm. Recently, however, an increasing number of behavior analysts are approaching social significance with more specificity to the client’s individual and cultural identity. Building interventions based on the values of clients, parents, and other stakeholders casts social significance in functional terms and refocuses behavior analysis on fostering valued living for all involved in the intervention. This mini workshop will begin with a review of valued living as presented in Part 1 and a conceptual application to how we focus our work on valued living, followed by an experiential exploration of how we might build valued living with our clients and other stakeholders.
