What are the 7 dimensions of Applied Behavior Analysis👇
Applied
🎯Focuses on socially significant behaviors—those that are meaningful and important to the individual and their environment.
👉Example: Teaching a child to request help or reduce tantrums at school.
Behavioral
🎯The behavior targeted for change must be observable and measurable.
👉 You focus on what a person does, not what they might be feeling or thinking internally.
Analytic
🎯You demonstrate that the intervention is what caused the behavior to change. This usually involves collecting data and showing clear relationships.
👉 Data shows: “When we did X, the behavior increased; when we didn’t, it decreased.”
Technological
🎯The procedures are written clearly and in detail, so that anyone can replicate them.
👉 Think of it like a recipe—another professional should be able to follow it exactly.
Conceptually Systematic
🎯Interventions are based on the principles of behavior analysis (like reinforcement, extinction, etc.), not just random techniques.
👉Everything ties back to theory and research.
Effective
🎯The intervention must produce meaningful improvements in behavior.
👉It’s not enough for data to look good—it needs to make a real difference in the person’s life.
Generality
🎯Behavior change should last over time, appear in different settings, and spread to other behaviors.
👉 For example, if a child learns to greet people in therapy, they should also greet people at home or school.
